| dc.description.abstract | This paper describes a pedagogical methodology used at the Polytechnic Institute of Bragança, in the mechatronics curricular unit of the master’s degree in Industrial Engineering. In order to promote out-of-the-box thinking, a contest was organised where students should use recycled and repurposed materials to build a vehicle that could be used in a hypothetical rescue scenario. By preventing the use of off-the-shelf solutions, creativity and ingenuity in engineering problem solving are promoted. Obtained results suggest that, in the vast majority, students adhere end embrace such a challenge with motivation and enthusiasm. By addressing the mechatronics learning outcomes from a gamification point-of-view, students were able to grasp, in a practical context, key concepts in this curricular unit that would, otherwise, be less evident. | pt_PT |
