Pedagogical Innovation Center

The Pedagogical Innovation Center aims to promote pedagogical appreciation as a differentiating element of the teaching-learning process adjusted to best practices, creating a growing dynamic of knowledge development, namely through the appreciation of the pedagogical component of teachers, the improvement in educational models of study cycles and curricular units, pedagogical or scientific transversality or the increasing centrality of the student in the development process.

It consists of:

• Distance learning support office.
• Training and pedagogical development office.
• Resource and learning support laboratory.

The Pedagogical Innovation Center, as a specialized service unit of P.PORTO, was created with the mission of stimulating, disseminating, and reinforcing innovative teaching and learning practices, empowering teachers for the ecological and digital transitions that today's world demands.

In this context, the Pedagogical Innovation Center (CIP) seeks to:

• Map pedagogical practices developed in the different organizational units of P.PORTO;
• Foster the reconfiguration of the teaching professionalism of P.PORTO teachers by focusing on pedagogical (re)training for hybrid contexts;
• Develop public discussion practices on the experimentation of innovative teaching and learning approaches and strategies;
• Promote the creation of pedagogical innovation projects, supporting their incubation and implementation; and create reflective, critical, and sustainable learning communities, taking into account the specialized nodes of knowledge.
