• Resumen

  • In this paper, an experience to approach the competence about ethical aspects of the profession is presented. Following an existing methodology, several cases are presented to the students in order to determine if people involved have had a professional or ethical behaviour. Codes of professional ethics or conduct have been also discussed with the students. The experience has been successful since students have actively participated and valued the methodology positively. This solves the lack of prior training in these ethical aspects.
