Project-oriented Problem Based Learning to build skills linked with industrial controllers

Abstract

Active learning is a strategy to improve students’ analytical and interpretative skills to solve problems linked with industrial controllers. This implementation of active learning consists of the acquisition of knowledge with seminars taught by students, and latterly developing a project to solve a real technical problem. This way of learning requires support and continuous monitoring by academic staff, and an assessing model that contemplates the level of the skills acquired by each student.
