Abstract

IdM@ti network members concurred in the diagnosis of the difficulties and opportunities arising from Bologna process implementation and teaching methodologies improvement in Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) teaching. This network has been created with the aim of improving efficiency of underway and future collaborations.The main objectives are related to MSE resources sharing (course programs, exercises, lab scripts, projects, PBL and case studies, etc.). The network will allow classifying those educational resources already individually implemented by each University, monitoring their statewide and promote the creation of new resources. In order to promote discussion and sharing of experiences, achievements and challenges, a workshop is annually organized, arose from the convenience of joining forces on the axes of innovation and improving the quality of teaching in MSE field.
