ENGENHARIA DE AUTOMAÇÃO E SUAS APLICAÇÕES NA INDÚSTRIA “AUTOMAÇÃO DE EQUIPAMENTO DE GRANDE PORTE”

Abstract

Robotics and automation is aparticular methodology of technologicaleducation and it is associated to the skillof combine theoretical and practicalknowledge. The complexity of the modernworld, however, demands a professionalforming with a profile more included. Thetechnical skills have to be associated tothe capacity to suppose, to communicateideas, to work in group and to negotiatecollectively. The methodology of projecthas to perform in this process a centralfunction. This work describes a teachingexperience, wherein the concepts aboveexposed were put in practical in the courseof study of Automation and Control, andcourse and mecatronic After-Degree. Theexperience had been developed insituation problem, wherein the student,were stimulated to develop solutions forproblems-situations. The realexperimentation created a suitable contextto the apprenticeship of methodology ofproject and to the understanding oftechnical abstract concepts.
