catedra upecista

It is a course that appears on a transcript from Universidad Popular Del Cesar from Colombia, for agricultural engineering diploma. I have absolutely no idea what it could be, therefore I would appreciate any suggestion.

Thank you.

No sé cuanta urgencia tengas, le he mandado un email con la pregunta a una colega Colombiana.
morellaC (asker) Nov 9, 2008:
i noticed the similarity "upc - upecista" myself, but...i don't know. However, i believe it is something specific, even if related to UPC. i have found on the web, someone complaining that "O es que nos ha servido mucho la cátedra upecista y las técnicas de autoaprendizaje?".
thanks for you opinion.

¿Será algo que tenga que ver con U.P.C., sea lo que sea?

History of UPC Pedagogy

I just got an email from my colleague, who said:

Upecista es un derivado del nombre de la Universidad. Es una materia de pedagogía y especificamente de pedagogía universitaria, es decir, como ha sido el modelo de universidad, su historia y como lo están aplicando especificamente en dicha universidad (UPC).

This actually confirms what I had already told you in my reference earlier. Hope this helps.

No dispongo de mas tiempo para seguir investigando, diría que no hay duda que upecita viene de las siglas UPC de la Universidad Popular del César. Espero que los enlaces te ayuden, yo diría por lo que he visto que puede ser alguna clase de historia de la educación en Colombia.
