Abstract:

During the last course of grade studies the use of learning techniques encouraging the team-working and autonomy is the desirable paradigm. Project-Based Learning (PBL) is the currently most-favored pedagogical model for achieving these objectives in electrical engineering studies. In this context we proposed the PBL for an optional subject taught on the last course of Industrial Electronic Engineering degree, entitled “Circuits and electronic systems for biomedical applications”. At the beginning of the course the instructor proposes different micro projects that the students have to develop during the course. This approach allows carrying out an evaluation of the competences in a continuous and personalized way. The experience of this pedagogical model shows that students can confront and solve unforeseen problems that enhance the expected skills for an electrical engineer.
