The methodological process starts from the theoretical-categorical review before, during and after the research process to assume the concept of practicing pedagogical couple. Thus, it is understood as a practicing pedagogical couple to students who carry out a cooperative, reflective work, of pedagogical accompaniment in the pre-professional practice process. Likewise, the techniques and instruments useful in the methodological procedure involve subjects of the UNAE as well as the institutions where the pre-professional practice is carried out.
