Abstract

Findings resulting from a year of university tutoring within a bachelor’s group from the Universidad Autónoma de Aguascalientes are presented, mainly characterized for conflicts and group shredding. From a collaborative diagnosis, 30 sessions focused on the enhancement of coexistence were implemented through reflexive learning strategies and the addressing of socioemotional skills. The evaluation, conducted through social cartography, showed improvements in respect, disposition and cohesion of common challenges; however, subgroups and tensions lingered, causing tensions that restricted full group integration. In conclusion, the findings showed that university tutoring, when systematically and contextualized, can constitute as a crucial formative space not only to build an inclusive coexistence, but also for teachers’ reflection about educational processes, especially the ones related to teaching methodologies, evaluation strategies and the incorporation of relevant pedagogical approaches in higher education.
