MORENO, Javier Rodríguez; JAEN, Mª Dolores Molina  and  RUIZ, Mª Jesús Colmenero. The voice of students in the degree of Primary Education about the final degree project. Educ. Pesqui. [online]. 2019, vol.45, e200829.  Epub Oct 07, 2019. ISSN 1678-4634.  https://doi.org/10.1590/s1678-4634201945200829.

The Spanish legal framework after the approval of regulation of the European Higher Education Area requires a revision of the current approach being granted to the subject Final Degree Project - TFG. The objective of this work has been to analyse the voice of students who have completed the Final Degree Project in the degree of Primary Education based on their teaching-learning process, tutoring, evaluation and applicability thereof and those who completed this subject in the University of Jaén and the University Centre SAFA of Úbeda (Spain). To do so, we analysed the treatment of the TFG by both the scientific community and the relevant current regulations. Sample consisted of 237 students so an ad hoc questionnaire was designed as a tool to collect information, using a Likert scale composed of four dimensions and 33 items in total. The results show that the TFG does not meet the expectations of the students in the analysed dimensions of tutoring, applicability, evaluation and development of the teaching-learning process, as they reach average values not higher, among the best cases, 30% of assessment. The conclusions show that there is still a long way to go before TFG and quality will be synonyms.
