Abstract

The present paper describes the outcomes of the application of Product-Based Learning for the development of one of the competencies needed for Material Technology-related Engineering programs: the competence of correct selection of materials and manufacturing processes in the product design stage. Several undergraduate courses, from different Engineering programs, were selected for the application of the methodology using the available software CES EduPack® in order to evaluate this competence. The proposed methodology consisted in designing an assessment involving the selection of materials and manufacturing processes and applying such assessment to students enrolled in the selected courses which incorporate the development of a product. The assessment was applied before prior knowledge of CES EduPack and then after using the software within the product design procedure. Results were compared in order to evaluate the improvement of the competence of selecting materials and manufacturing processes.
