Abstract

At universities, cooperative and collaborative learning are substituting the types of group work that were commonly known until today, placing the student in the middle of his or her own learning as another actor in the processes of acquisition of competencies, with university radios serving as experimenting labs for this.  Methodology: In this research, an analysis of all the work processes that are developed in iradioUCAM, the Catholic University of Murcia’s radio, is conducted.  This analysis takes into account all the processes performed from the launch of a new season until its ending, according to the defining criteria of cooperative and collaborative learning.  Results: The application of this methodology allows us to identify four sequential work phases, which are differentiated according to: time limits, processes developed, objectives to be reached and type of learning employed. Discussion: The results obtained evidence that in the process needed for the development of the final products included in dayparting, techniques and tools belonging to cooperative as well as collaborative learning, are used. Conclusions: iradioUCAM has generated its own model of management of a university radio, which once improved and adapted, could serve as a guideline for other university radios, as well as other educational scenarios where professional work realities are re-created.
