Resum
This paper describes an innovative pedagogic initiative for training Communication and Journalism university students. This initiative has been designed within the framework of a funded project financed. This has seeked to train future communicators in Transversal Competences (TC) via cooperative multimedia online journalism projects, focussed on subjects linked to the seventeen United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, to be accomplished by all member States by the year 2030 (Agenda 2030). As this paper concludes, online journalist work with SDG projects can be a useful teaching strategy in the classroom for promoting learning skills and results sustained by the development of students’ Emotional Intelligence (EI). In addition to contributing to the training of students in emotional competences, this innovative teaching initiative has led to develop other abilities related to EI, such as the capacity to work as part of a team.
