Pedagogical Innovation Projects at Técnico

Recent technological developments and rapid social changes have brought new challenges to engineering education in the 21st century. To better prepare young engineers to be able to anticipate, take part and respond to the future challenges of our society, Instituto Superior Técnico launched a process of analysis and reflection on its teaching model and pedagogical practices. The Pedagogical Innovation Projects (PIP) emerged in this context and are intended to support teachers in the development of new formats and innovative teaching methods, encouraging the inclusion of new technologies and skills in curricular units, which play increasingly large roles in the world of work, such as collaborative project work and digital technologies.
