This paper describes the implementation and impact of a set of pedagogical innovations implemented by university professors in their courses after participating in teacher training sessions as part of their professional development to strengthen university teaching. Methodologically, this is a descriptive qualitative study based on an intrinsic case study. The results establish that the main pedagogical innovations implemented relate to the application of teaching and gamification strategies; the use of ICTs to promote group activities and dynamics; student self-assessment at the beginning and end of classes; the use of formative strategies for student learning; and technologically supported socio-emotional strategies. The paper also addresses the main difficulties related to student readiness, intrinsic motivation, strengthening of soft skills, and classroom climate. It also presents proposals for improvement, such as strengthening the use of gamification strategies and ICTs, and providing greater training on emotional issues to link them to teaching practice.
