Therefore, this paper aims to know and analyse the development (teaching) and command (learning) of the Pedagogy Degree’s competences through their students’ perception. An ad hoc questionnaire for 92 of these students was applied. The results show the need to strengthen the development of competences in the university classroom, as well as their command among students.
