Abstract


In the School of Mines of the Technical University of Madrid (UPM) the adaptation process to the Bologna principles have been carried out. This has implied changes in the teaching methodology. In this paper a new methodology is described and it is applied to an introductory course of basic mechanics of the first semester of two different engineering degrees. The results are presented through an index which permits to assess the global results of the teachinglearning process reached with this methodology.
