Pedagogical perspective of contribution of educational technology in engineering teaching

The use of technologies in academic environment has become a common practice today. Since the end of twentieth century virtual and media components have corresponded to a facilitator of teaching and learning process. Those resources have added a high level of effectiveness, to the point of promoting face-to-face education, in addition to incorporating Distance Education (EAD). The present study has analyzed pedagogical perspectives of Virtual Learning Environment - AVA Moodle in mediation of scientific knowledge, fomenting the formation of undergraduate students in areas of electrical engineering and production engineering in Higher Education Institution (IES), a large private institution located in the city Vitória da Conquista, Bahia. From that perspective, this research has a qualitative approach, with emphasis on case study. The participants of research have been composed of 20 students from the third semester of courses of electrical engineering and production engineering of IES researched, enrolled in the period of 2017.1, who had studied Methodology of Scientific Research - MPC. Through the current investigation with development based on pedagogical perspectives in areas of engineering, it has been possible to consummate the achievement of convergent results to veritable contribution of technology for benefit of education, noting that the institutional environment, the student and teacher have strengthened in acquisition and transmission of knowledge.
