LA ADMINISTRACIÓN ELECTRÓNICA: PERSPECTIVAS DE LA ENSEÑANZA DEL DERECHO ADMINISTRATIVO

Abstract

New technologies have an impact on the methods of public administration management, rethinking the traditional way how citizens interact, generating new elements which should be considered in the study of public administration. The current challenge in the 21st century for administrations is adopting the tools of the information society and work practices to respond to the needs of citizens, which means that all the acts that they produce as well as relations of citizens with them, will change substantially. The Administrative Law is facing a new moment of change, requiring a new focus on the contents, the way in which it is taught, the tools that are used. Consequently, public servants trained for a new model of government are required, so the training provided through higher education, especially postgraduate programs, must necessarily incorporate these new approaches. The challenge for the teaching of Administrative Law of the XXI century, at postgraduate level, lies in changing the traditional conception of the teaching model, incorporating the new information and communication technologies, and implies a complete transformation of the pedagogical skills of the facilitating teacher, to achieve professional training in the field of this legal discipline, generate the substantial changes demanded by the society of the future.
