Abstract(s)

Given the specificity of the Higher Professional Technical Courses it is important that the classes are oriented in order to promote a learning with a strong connection to the practice and its course. Following this principle, it was proposed to the students of the Mechanical Technology and Vehicles course of the School of Technology and Management of the Polytechnic Institute of Bragança (Portugal) that attended in 2017/2018 the course unit “Safety and Environment”, the accomplishment of a practical work that had as scenario the laboratory of Mechanical Technology. The experience had a positive impact on students learning, since, in addition to allowing them to work on content in a contextualized way, it contributed, among other things, to developing their autonomy and communication skills.
