Novos Paradigmas do Ensino e Sistemas Integrados de Informações em Engenharia: Uma convergência na Melhoria da Aprendizagem

Colleges and Universities have been undergone of a tripartite pressure at the changeable environment of the Brazilian society: a) to be engaged to the principles of efficiency and to the institutional demands from the National Council of Education (CNE); b) to the learning requirements from the students; and c) from the market orientation. Hence, the contemporary discussions are inserted in the need of a mechanism able to reduce the dynamic distance
between professors and students by the teaching-learning process. The late mainstream in teaching points out a change in the traditional process, seeking a more pro -activity learning process for a world where information takes place as the main tool to obtain and develop new knowledges. This articles focus the discussion to the reality of the informationknowledge process and its role to maximize the teaching-learning process for the engineering courses.
