Paper Abstract:
|
This article presents the use of the Project-based Learning approach focused on knowledge exchange to improve the
learning process. To reach this goal, we elaborate a learning project to teachs software design, supported by the
Knowledge Chains exchange and the Collabore environment, which had been developed on a peer-to-peer platform
because of its decentralized approach. This project had been carried out with students of an important Brazilian Computer
Graduate School, where each student must design software appliying design patterns. To evaluate the proposed idea, this
article describes the case study conducted in a real classroom, which showed strong evidence that this approach was
successful and revealed issues that can be improved both in the proposed approach and in the Collabore environment. |
