Abstract:
Although a causal relationship, between the active involvement of students with the education process and the level of learning outcomes, has already been clearly demonstrated by numerous researchers, the choice of appropriate educational methods and "tools", for effectively engaging students in the learning process, remains a serious problem for every teacher. This study demonstrates the application of Project Based Learning - PBL method to the teaching of a Mechanism Kinematic Analysis course, in a higher education institution, and highlights the specific factors that have effectively contributed to the remarkable increase in student performance.
