    El aprendizaje-servicio es una metodología educativa que combina el servicio comunitario con la adquisición de competencias y valores, y constituye un marco idóneo para devolver a la sociedad parte de su inversión en educación pública. Este artículo presenta el Programa UPC de Voluntariado TIC, que está en su segundo año de funcionamiento. El programa ha recibido una subvención del Ayuntamiento de Barcelona a través de la convocatoria de financiación del Programa de Educación para el Desarrollo 2016. En el programa han participado ya una docena de entidades y 28 voluntarios que han desarrollado 21 proyectos. Los resultados muestran que las entidades están en general satisfechas con los proyectos y con el trabajo de los voluntarios. Los voluntarios también valoran positivamente tanto el trabajo realizado como el aprendizaje obtenido a través de la realización de su proyecto.Peer ReviewedPostprint (published version

    El aprendizaje-servicio, una metodología educativa que combina la adquisición de competencias y valores con el servicio comunitario, es un marco idóneo para devolver a la sociedad parte de su inversión en educación pública. Este póster presenta el Programa UPC de Voluntariado TIC, cuya fase piloto se ha puesto en marcha durante el curso 2015-2016. Han participado 6 entidades con fines sociales y 13 estudiantes de grado de las ingenierías de informática y telecomunicaciones. El programa ha recibido una subvención del Ayuntamiento de Barcelona a través de la convocatoria de financiación del Programa de Educación para el Desarrollo 2015. Una vez establecidos los mecanismos de seguimiento y evaluación, el próximo objetivo es consolidar el programa durante el próximo curso, ampliar el número de entidades sociales colaboradoras y analizar su posible extensión a otras disciplinas de voluntariado tecnológico.Service-learning, an educational methodology that combines the acquisition of skills and values with community service, is an ideal framework to return to society part of their investment in public education. This poster presents the UPC’s ICT-volunteer program, whose pilot phase started the year 2015-2016. Six bodies for social purposes, and 13 undergraduate students of engineering in computing and telecommunications, have participated in this initiative. The program has received a grant from the Barcelona City Council through the call for funding of the Education for Development 2015. Once the mechanisms for monitoring and evaluating the program have been established, the next goal is to consolidate it over the next year, increasing the number of partnerships with social organizations and analysing its possible extension to other fields of technological volunteering

    Entities with social purposes perform an essential task in our Society. They are often obliged to work with insufficient budgets that do not allow them to develop their projects with the necessary guarantees. In particular, they require computers and support from ICT experts in order to be able to fulfil their objectives in a society as technological as ours, in which changes in technology occur at a dizzying speed. In September, 2015, the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech launched an ICT volunteer program in the form of a pilot experience with students from the Schools of Informatics and Telecommunications. The program, an extra-curricular activity called Vol-ICT, is currently in its third edition. This program falls in a more ambitious one in which we aim to increase student retention by using Service Learning as a part of our university educational policy [1].Peer Reviewe
