Métodos de ensino e atividades de aprendizagem

The teaching methodology will focus on a presentation of the programmatic content that will be carried out in person, followed by a autonomous work of the students based on research to deepen the subjects, solve problems and carry out small projects. There will also be 3/4 laboratory tests of full scale heating / air conditioning equipment so that students can apply the acquired knowledge to the characterization of these equipments.

The methodology will have a strong online component expected in the time of contact with students and based on the moodle platform that in addition to the availability of content and support material will also be used to discuss topics and clarify doubts.
