Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:Project based learning is a methodology based on students’ teams developing interdisciplinary work to deliver an outcome as a result of a project. The engineering students’ teams when performing project work have to adopt project management methodologies. Assuming that the quality of the results on project work is also dependent on the project management methodology applied and that project management is one of the competencies to be developed during engineering degrees, this paper presents a project management guide to be followed by students’ teams involved in large projects. This project management methodology is the result of the experience of students and teachers involved in project based learning practices in the last 6 years in the engineering school at the University of Minho.
