Title- Adapting the teaching methodology of a cryptography subjet to the recommendations of the European Higher Education Area.
Abstract- This paper summarizes the adaptation to the requirements of the Bologna declaration of 19th June, 1999. In this new European context, it is required not only theoretical concepts, but also a learning methodology where professors have a secondary role and students are the main actors of the learning process. We present a proposal of adaptation for a subject of cryptography, which combines a short theoretical review of basics concepts and a set of practical exercises. These exercises are designed with the aim to achieve a global perspective of developing cryptographic systems. A modular approach was selected in order that every new design required results generated in the previous one. A case study of an implementation of a hash function is presented. This exercise demands some skills related with different subjects of their curricula to develop a fully functional system, focusing the learning on a project-based design.
