FERNANDEZ SOLA, Cayetano  and  GRANERO MOLINA, José. Planning and educational guide in the higher education european convergence framework. Invest. educ. enferm [online]. 2008, vol.26, n.2, suppl.1, pp.128-135. ISSN 0120-5307.

Present day societies are characterized by the globalization of their economies and, the fostering of a " knowledge-based society". Higher education plays a part in these phenomena, and, in Europe, is undergoing an important reform seeking to homogenize the system of university degrees. These attempts come together in the European Space of Higher Education which will mean a new paradigm centred on "learning" and upheld by a system of common credits, teaching staff planning, innovations in methodology, the professional competences and the handling of information in the constantly changing knowledge in today’s world. In this framework staff planning, and the production of Teaching Guides is of the utmost importance. The aim of which being an awareness on the part of the student of the benefits to be had when taking each course, what activities should be carried out, guidance on chronology, on assessment. Regarding the subject under discussion, we have evolved some reflections on the lines of each of these topics, putting forward a model illustrated with examples on how to make planning and teaching guides useful instruments for the student. We conclude stressing the importance of a teaching plan for convergence and noting that despite the difficulties, changes are possible.
