چکیده

This article presents an evaluation of an intergenerational education experience at the University of Castilla-La Mancha (Spain).

Participants listed the exceptional nature of the program and the teachers needing to make methodological adjustments to improve the experience (the pace of teaching, adaptation to the profile of the participants) among the disadvantages.
