Teachers begin to re-judge the teaching in accord with the students necessity and the analysis of the life s experience. The group activities that have been done in CPV can develop the reflexive process related with features of the students who frequent the course. Besides, the teachers involve themselves into outclasses areas bringing into relation with the management and organization which characterizes the CPV project. They can be part of a project s coordination group or be a coordinator of their own work area.
