ESIMar will contribute with other partners with the creation of a teaching-learning toolkit, to be applied in the classroom or other educational environments. The toolkit will be designed specifically for healthcare and social care degrees and will focus on the project’s transversal skills: critical and creative thinking, interpersonal/socio-emotional and citizen-oriented skills and learning to learn.
