Interactive WhiteBoard: Effective Interactive Teaching Strategy Designs for Biology Teaching

An Interactive Project-based Teaching Methodology in Electrical Engineering Courses

A teacher-centred pedagogical approach and a technical content disconnected with real world industry applications are two of the main causes that explain a low motivation in engineering studies. This work proposes a learner-centred interactive methodology together with a project-based teaching to overcome both problems and achieve a life-long learning. The proposed methodology is successfully a...
