Abstract

Promoting new teaching methodologies is essential to improve the participation, motivation, interest, and results of students in all educational stages. In this sense, flipped classroom and problem-based learning have emerged in the last years as fascinating options to be implemented in high education levels thanks to the students’ maturity and previously acquired background. Working with motivating case studies based on real processes with their restrictions appears as an opportunity to bring future professionals closer to the industrial problems; this will capacitate engineers to solve and understand complex procedures getting tangible results. In this context, the main goal of this work is to combine flipped classroom and problem-based learning methodologies to gain the interest of students of a Master course in Industrial Engineering in the subject of Chemical Processes using real data of local companies. A survey, designed by the academics involved, will help collecting the opinion of students as well as the acquired skills in the frame of the specific subject. Results demonstrated the satisfaction of the students with the course, highlighting mainly the acquisition or improvement of self-learning skills (survey 4.0/5.0), capacity for organization and planning (survey 4.0/5.0), analytical ability (survey 4.2/5.0), and teamwork (survey 4.3/5.0). In addition, the grades accomplished during the year of implementation show that although the success rate is quite similar to preceding years, the marks achieved are considerably higher.

化工技能在工业工程硕士课程中的整合
推广新的教学方法对于提高学生在各个教育阶段的参与度、积极性、兴趣和结果是必不可少的。从这个意义上说,由于学生的成熟和先前获得的背景,翻转课堂和基于问题的学习在过去几年成为在高等教育中实施的迷人选择。基于实际流程及其限制的激励案例研究似乎是使未来专业人员更接近工业问题的机会;这将使工程师能够解决和理解复杂的程序,并获得切实的结果。在这种背景下,这项工作的主要目标是结合翻转课堂和基于问题的学习方法,以获得工业工程硕士课程的学生对化学过程主题的兴趣,使用当地公司的真实数据。由相关学者设计的调查将有助于收集学生的意见以及在特定主题框架内获得的技能。结果表明学生对课程的满意度,主要体现在自主学习能力(调查4.0/5.0)、组织策划能力(调查4.0/5.0)、分析能力(调查4.2/5.0)和团队合作能力(调查4.3/5.0)的获得或提高。此外,在实施年度取得的成绩表明,虽然成功率与前几年相当,但取得的分数要高得多。

期刊介绍: Education for Chemical Engineers was launched in 2006 with a remit to publisheducation research papers, resource reviews and teaching and learning notes. ECE is targeted at chemical engineering academics and educators, discussing the ongoingchanges and development in chemical engineering education. This international title publishes papers from around the world, creating a global network of chemical engineering academics. Papers demonstrating how educational research results can be applied to chemical engineering education are particularly welcome, as are the accounts of research work that brings new perspectives to established principles, highlighting unsolved problems or indicating direction for future research relevant to chemical engineering education. Core topic areas: -Assessment- Accreditation- Curriculum development and transformation- Design- Diversity- Distance education-- E-learning Entrepreneurship programs- Industry-academic linkages- Benchmarking- Lifelong learning- Multidisciplinary programs- Outreach from kindergarten to high school programs- Student recruitment and retention and transition programs- New technology- Problem-based learning- Social responsibility and professionalism- Teamwork- Web-based learning
