Abstract
The design of a technical education course based on the application of the PIGMALION method, which includes the use of active methodologies for adaptation to the EHEA, is presented. Key aspects of the method are described, and accompanied by examples, like the definition of specific objectives, creating a detailed activities plan using a variety of objectives, creating a detailed activities plan using a variety of continuous assessment. In addition, the effort required by the teacher to adapt is outlined. Conclusions obtained in the first year of implementation include increased student motivation, and a significant improvement in the rate of return.
