WORKSHOP – TROCA DE EXPERIÊNCIAS NO ENSINO DE ENGENHARIA

Abstract

This reports methodological activities to integrate subjects of the Materials Science Engineering Course syllabus, both within a single course stage (horizontal integration), and among subjects from different stages (vertical integration). The methodology is to study a problem or situation that motivates and encourages knowledge acquisition, competence development stimulation, skills and professional attitudes through Workshops organization. Workshops are held every semester, involving 5 to 8 students from each final stage, encouraging mutual cooperation among them. In its 13th edition, these workshops aim at enabling student teams to study and develop current issues not addressed in classrooms, discussing multidisciplinary questions. The "feedback" takes place by means of questions, when each group orally presents their solutions to a tutor, who evaluates and discusses them with everyone. In every issue, students end up unanimously accepting this project development – this becoming evident in the great interest demonstrated through participation in the discussions.
