CONTRERAS-PACHECO, Orlando E.; PEDRAZA A, Aura Cecilia y BARBOSA CALDERON, Alejandra. TEACHING MANAGEMENT IN ENGINEERING SCHOOLS: A PRACTICAL APPROACH. Dimens.empres. [online]. 2017, vol.15, n.2, pp.41-55. ISSN 1692-8563. https://doi.org/10.15665/rde.v15i2.1059.
By means of an action-research approach, this paper is an account of a comprehensive academic experience. It was performed and assesed using a sample of 344 participants, distributed in 12 different groups who were part of the bachelor degree program in Industrial Engineering at a Colombian university. To this end, a set of pedagogical practices, based mainly on teaching cases supported by ICT tools was implemented. This study includes a summary of each case developed, a description of their implementation and their assessment process and results. Outcomes indicate that according to student’s perceptions, there is a clear superiority of these initiatives over traditional teaching techniques based on conventional lectures, even after six months of the experience. It contributes by encouraging the transfer of this knowledge into some other contexts to stimulate further development and to help in the creation of better educational processes for future professionals in engineering, as well as in other professions.
