This article shows the experience of working on project-based learning using scientific posters, on the study of the mass geometry of matter, with students of various Physics subjects of Degrees in Engineering of the School of Design Engineering of the Polytechnic University of Valencia. The development of this work has been carried out with a dual purpose: on the one hand, to improve the teachinglearning process of mass geometry; and, on the other hand, to improve the acquisition of skills by students. This matter, which is studied in the Physics subjects of the first year of the degree, forms part of the basis of the studies of resistance of materials and theory of mechanisms of subsequent courses. The inclusion of two sessions of laboratory practices, as an extension of the work carried out in the theory and classroom practice sessions, has allowed us to study more deeply the theoretical concepts of mass geometry and their application to a real project, improving the learning by the students. In addition, the presentation of the project through the scientific poster has facilitated the acquisition of cross-curricular competencies such as application and practical thinking, teamwork, effective communication, and critical thinking.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
