Smart Learning
A new educational model for a new normal.
This new normal requires a new way of teaching and learning, adapted to a changing and uncertain situation that demands flexible, intelligent, and technological learning that adapts to all the students’ new educational needs.
La Salle Campus Barcelona - Ramon Llull University endorses the new Smart Learning model and takes another step in its innovative DNA, affecting all areas of the educational process: the service to the students, international exchanges, remote internships, the telework model applied to internships with companies, the job bank, and research projects.
What is the new Smart Learning model?
State-of-the-art technology has been implemented in the classrooms that will allow students, both national and international, who cannot get to the Campus to attend and participate in classes without being physically in the classroom. The sessions given with on-site students will be broadcast live over the Internet and those who attend virtually will be projected on screens so that teachers and on-site students can see and interact with them. All students, both on-site and those who cannot come to the campus, will form a single group while maintaining the same academic schedule and contact with their classmates and teachers.
With the new Smart Learning model, students will have training which will be:
- Personalized, because it adapts to the student and their needs or circumstances, regardless of the health scenario.
- Flexible, because it overcomes the barriers of the online or face-to-face methods with a platform that allows face-to-face, blended, and distance learning.
- Intelligent, because it is a new way of teaching and learning that combines physical and interactive experiences.
- Technological, in order to implement the Smart Learning methodology, classrooms have been transformed into Smart Classrooms, which consist of:
- Audio system with more than 8,000 virtual microphones per classroom
- Cameras equipped with artificial intelligence
- Smart Boards to share content to and from the Smart Classroom, enhancing collaborative work.

Program Outcome
Goals
Students who graduate in Multimedia Engineering become excellent professionals in technological integration, thus being able to decide which form should technology adopt in order for it to be truly efficient when playing its mediating role in the creative and communicative process. Multimedia integrates several disciplines focused on creative, technological, and management, and production aspects. Therefore, the curriculum of this degree consists of a set of subjects that complement each other such as Conceptualisation.
- Scriptwriting.
- Digital photography.
- User experience.
- Production.
- Interactive installations.
- Virtual reality.
- Programming or physical simulation.
Said subjects have been chosen to provide students with suitable knowledge with the aim of enhancing both conceptualization and development of virtual interaction environments without any limits regarding neither communication support nor specific field of application. Hence, due to the transverse nature of Multimedia itself as well as its strategic position, graduates can apply their knowledge to any industry—
- Videogames
- Film Technology
- Mobile Apps
- Web technology
- Virtual Reality
- New Interface
- Research and innovation
It is undeniable that the video game industry has attained a leading position within the audiovisual and interactive entertainment industry—it is expected to grow 23.7% each coming year. By studying at La Salle you can specialize in videogames, thus gaining the necessary knowledge to attain artistic, design, and programming positions in top companies worldwide. You will be able to both perform practical training at unique labs and be granted official certifications enjoying professional recognition internationally.
