| dc.description.abstract | We present here the results of a brief learning experience carried out in two laboratory curricular units of the Communication and Multimedia Design course of the Polytechnic of Coimbra, where students are responsible for ideating, developing and executing multimedia group projects, with marginal guidance and assistance from teachers, in order to improve their autonomy and problem-solving skills. In addition, these curricular units allow for consolidation of knowledge and skills acquired in others. Both units are similarly organized, sharing the same main goals. However, as they are in different curricular years, they allow for students to apply different and improved skills and knowledge, with teachers being able to assess students’ evolution in between both curricular units. At the beginning of each curricular unit, teachers propose student groups to work on current issues and think of a campaign for raising awareness for those same issues. Over the last few years, students have worked on campaigns regarding NGO, elections, climate change, the COVID-19 pandemic, among other topics that may concern them as active citizens. For evaluating teaching methodologies, students were asked about their experience through an online survey, which allowed to conclude that these units: promote autonomy, combining skills in each group and project; exceed expectations regarding the intended results; help closing the gap to the professional environment reality; benefit from having from different areas of expertise (media, arts, design and programming); are a good way of consolidating skills. | eng |
