enginy@ eps: Motivating the Engineering Courses

Abstract:

This paper presents an academic initiative to increase the motivation of students for engineering topics, and discusses the results obtained. The initiative is a journal where students may publish, both in paper and in electronic format, the final reports of their laboratory works or research activities. The name of the journal is enginy@ eps. The existence of this journal becomes an external element for motivating the students, since their documents are going to be reviewed by an editorial staff and are going to be published out of the classroom. The collected data shows that social recognition is still a useful element to motivate the students in technical courses.
