Base Knowledge
Electronics and C Programming Language.
Teaching Methodologies
- Theoretical component – the expository method is used to present new concepts, combined with examples of real applications to motivate the application of these concepts.
- Theoretical-practical component – theoretical-practical problems are presented and students are challenged, individually, to discuss and present solutions.
- Practical Component – the project-based learning approach is adopted, encouraging group work, where students are required to develop the necessary autonomy to develop and validate (in a laboratory context) the implementation of the proposed projects.
