A percepção da monitoria como elemento de fortalecimento do ensino-aprendizagem na área de Engenharia de Transportes

Abstract

During higher education, the exchange of knowledge and experiences is evidenced by the development of dialogic strategies for the construction of knowledge among peers, allowing students and teachers to feel responsible for the teaching-learning process. In the context of this training, academic monitoring gains relevance. In this context, during the disciplines offered by the Department of Transportation Engineering of the Federal University of Ceará (UFC), a series of activities are developed with students through the Teaching Initiation Program. Thus, the objective of this paper is to evaluate the perception of the students monitored in the course of Civil Engineering in relation to the monitoring activities, in which, by means of a questionnaire, the students interspersed between total disagreement and total agreement in eight affirmations about the process in question. The results showed that most students considered monitoring as a means of strengthening teaching and that it had a positive impact on the course.
