Results-Driven Digital Education: How to Develop a Scientific/Research Article in Civil Engineering
Partners: Equalduvy - Unipessoal Lda, Municipality of Machico, Construteam Engenharia, Lda, Máxima Dinâmica - Reparações e Construções Lda, TECNOVIA MADEIRA, S.A.
Objectives: the course "Results-Driven Digital Education: How to Develop a Scientific/Research Article in Civil Engineering" are aligned with the guidelines of the "DO IT" project, focusing on fostering intercultural competences and engaging culturally diverse students in virtual and blended learning environments.
This course aims to present and critically analyze previously developed scientific articles within the field of civil engineering, encouraging students to reflect on their own research practices through an intercultural lens. By showcasing these articles, students will explore how diverse cultural perspectives and inclusive strategies can enhance both the research process and its outcomes. Additionally, the course will emphasize the importance of integrating these perspectives into scientific writing, ensuring that future civil engineers not only excel in technical expertise but also demonstrate cultural awareness and sensitivity in their work.
Through collaborative activities and discussions, the course will provide students with the skills to engage in multicultural research teams and contribute to global academic discourse. Ultimately, the course aspires to equip participants with the tools to produce high-quality scientific articles that are both methodologically sound and culturally inclusive, ensuring broader engagement and impact in the academic community.
