ABSTRACTThe teaching of Algebra, in special Linear Algebra, to engineering students, come changing its focus since the popularization of personal computers. Various specialized softwares has been developed and has become feasible to pay more attention in the algebraic thinking to solve problems and minus attention in the calculus itself. But one needs to be careful to not go to the extreme of this teaching-learning process. The teaching of Algebra using computational software must not mean the teaching of a sequence of commands and its syntaxes. On the other hand, it must not mean to memorize a sequence of definitions and theorems. So we propose a equilibrium point based on our experience with students of engineering that attended in our lessons of Algebra with Scilab software.RESUMOO ensino de álgebra, especialmente álgebra linear (AL), para estudantes de engenharia, vem mudando seu foco desde a populariozação dos computadores pessoais. Diversos softwares especializados têm sido desenvolvidos e tornado possível prestar mais atenção ao pensamento algébrico para a solução de problemas do que ao cálculo em si. Mas é necessário ter-se cuidado para não ocupar os extremos nesse processo de ensino-aprendizagem. O ensino de álgebra usando softwares não deve significar ensinar uma sequência de comandos e suas sintaxes. Também não deve significar memorizar uma sequência de definições e teoremas. Assim, propõe-se um ponto de equilíbrio baseado na experiência com estudantes de engenharia que participaram das aulas de AL utilizando o Scilab.

Content Review

In the framework of the subject “Analysis of aeronautical structural components” included in the Master of Science of Aeronautical Engineering at the Universitat Politècnica de València, the application Kahoot! is employed in order to review the technical content and obtain feedback of the level of knowledge acquired by the students. Kahoot! allows developing multiple choice interactive quizzes that are solved in the classroom. Using this type of tools enhances the attention of the students and helps to create interesting discussions making the students be part of the teaching-learning process. Besides, the platform allows analyzing the results of the technical content reviewed which, in turn, permits the lecturer to adapt the didactic material to a real scenario. Furthermore, the results obtained from the assessment survey show the high level of satisfaction of the students with an activity which allows them to learn in a fun way. In conclusion, the application of Kahoot! for content review helps to perfect the teaching-learning process and improves academic performance in an attractive and engaging environment.

AbstractThe objectives of this study were to explain the problems faced by engineering students of Semarang State Polytechnic in their presentation skills, to describe the implementation of demonstration strategy using modeling videos in improving the students’ self-confidence and practice in their presentation and the improvement when the strategy was applied. The research design of this study was classroom action research. The subjects were 20 engineering students from Telecommunication Study Program of Semarang State Polytechnic. The study was conducted by doing observation, giving pre test and posttest and questionnaire. The actions were conducted in three cycles. The findings showed that the implementation of demonstration strategy using modeling videos was able to improve the engineering students’ self-confidence and practice in their presentation skills. First, the students were actively involved in the teaching learning process. It could be seen from the result of observation sheet done by the researcher. There was an improvement of 3.3 points. Second, the posttest result showed significant progress from the pre test score, which was 69.8 into 84.95.

Augmented Reality (AR) is growing technology that superimpose 3D images onto real world. This enhances the user’s real-world experience. This potential of AR can be utilized effectively in teaching learning for engineering graphics course.There is visualization limitation for engineering students entering in first year, and this leads them to face difficulty in understanding and developing orthographic, isometric and section view of models. AR can empower the students to visualize the actual virtual object in 3D view to match their imagination with augmented object. In this regard initially a framework of AR is conceptualized for the course of engineering graphics & an AR application is developed. This paper mainly focuses on investigation & impact of AR technology on interactive teaching learning process in engineering graphics. Impact of this technology is measured by student’s performance in AR interactive test. The result shows increase in student’s performance in written test by 18.52% in engineering graphics and in mental rotation test by 28.97%.

National Board of Accreditation, India has become the signatories of the Washington Accord adopting outcome based education guidelines in order to impart the quality education in engineering institutes [14]. Outcome Based education (OBE) requires thorough assessment and evaluation of the students individually, with special focus on the overall development of the students. OBE is based more on student centric learning and less on the role of a faculty or the content part (taught) which requires modifications at grass root level in the University teaching learning scheme. It demands a transition of a lecturer into a facilitator. It also requires a paradigm shift in teaching learning process in engineering education (EE) system as OBE focuses more on development of all the three learning domains, contradictory to the traditional teaching learning process which focuses more on development of the cognitive domain and psychomotor domain only. According to the World Bank Report, the modern volatile and complex world demands from the engineers the core employability skills like critical thinking, problem solving, creativity and innovation, collaboration skill, communication skill which must be developed and honed during the course tenure so that they could become competent global engineers [2] [3]. This paper brings forth the out of box thinking and implementation concept of the OBE for UG program, through activity based students’ engagement, specially designed activity to achieve Programme Educational Outcomes (PEOs), Programme Outcomes (POs) and Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs). It intends to solve the problem of large classes through the implementation of the FLIP classroom model. A six month activity based teaching learning model had been adopted for different streams, involving more than 1500 engineering students. The outcome/s achieved by each activity had been termed as Activity Outcomes (AOs). This paper discusses the problems encountered during the implementation of OBE frame work for large class [4] in context with Indian environment and also strives to provide some methods to implement activity based learning to achieve desirable outcomes.

Monitoring Phase

The system of relationships and emotions that develop in the teaching-learning process define the complexity of teachers' education and pose the challenge of bringing out the emotional and affective culture that guides school life. Several studies on teaching practices highlight the tendency to refer to technical aspectsas a key dimension of professionalism, rather than on relational and emotional dimensions that can promote the relationship with student. The creative and unprecedented reconfiguration of professional practice is configured as the outcome of a reflexive process of subjective construction and de-construction of the profession and its development.The paper proposes a reflective training experience, which involved 76 teachers, focused on emotional and relational dimensions on teaching and based on the use of the narrative-autobiographical instruments (diary, narrative, metaphor). The results achieved in the monitoring phase show that the training offered an opportunity to reflect on oneself and one's personal and professional experience, starting from the use of alternative perspectives and interpretations than those that are already in use
