INTERDISCIPLINARY PROJECT: TECHNOLOGICAL EDUCATION AND ACTIVE METHODOLOGIES IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF TECHNICAL AND SOCIO-EMOTIONAL COMPETENCIES

Abstract

The present article presents the development of an interdisciplinary project in the Technical Course in Systems Development, carried out with first-year students and integrating the technical components of Systems Analysis and Design, Digital Design, Programming Logic, Fundamentals of Informatics, Web Programming, and Databases. The objective of the project was to promote collaborative learning through active methodologies, with emphasis on Project-Based Learning (PBL) and hybrid teaching mediated by the Microsoft Teams platform. The project activities were conducted based on the waterfall life cycle, a systems development methodology within the field of Software Engineering, which consists of the stages of requirements analysis and elicitation, design, coding, and implementation, culminating in the development of a functional website created using the Wix online platform. The pedagogical proposal enabled the development of both technical and socio-emotional competencies that are essential for the training of a Systems Development technician, such as teamwork, autonomy, creativity, and responsibility. The results indicated that the interdisciplinary approach applied to the technical components, combined with the use of educational technologies, strengthened student protagonism by integrating theory and practice, contributing to a competent training process aligned with the demands of the contemporary labor market.
