“…One of the strategies used in educational research is the so-called "expert judgment", with a "Delphi" modality application, which is one of the most used methods to configure the content validity of a scale or a questionnaire (López-Gómez, 2018;Pérez-Pérez, Gómez, & Sebastián, 2018). As Gil-Gómez and Pascual-Ezama (2012) point out: "the Delphi methodology is a technique framed within the methods of experts that is used to obtain the most consensual opinion possible from a group of people, considered experts, in relation to a certain research objective".…”

“Augmented reality” (AR) is presented as technology that harmonizes, in real time and with user collaboration, digital information with physical information through different technological supports. Such are AR possibilities, that when it is incorporated into teaching, students show high satisfaction rates and positive attitudes for its use, but at the same time, a series of limitations and obstacles can be noticed. As an attempt to investigate the technical, curricular and organizational difficulties of AR incorporation in training contexts, an instrument “AR obstacle questionnaire” (CORA) was designed, which in turn was administered to a total of 264 subject experts for validation through the Delphi method, subsequently applying the “K coefficient” (K = ½ Kc (knowledge coefficient) + Ka (argumentation coefficient)), selecting those experts who obtained a ≥ 0,8 score in the coefficient. Among the results obtained in the study we manage to point out the main obstacles involving AR implementation into university education: the lack of teacher training and improvement, the few educational experiences found, lack of conceptual foundation, limited educational research and lack of institutional support.

“…Among the different technologies that are part of AM, those expected to be most suited to the manufacturing industry are Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), Selective Laser Melting (SLM) and FDM [3]. The last of these technologies is considered to be more developed than the other two [4]. FDM technology consists of the layer-by-layer deposition of a thermoplastic polymer previously driven into a semi-liquid state through the nozzle that allows the deposition of the material.…”

Investigation of a Short Carbon Fibre-Reinforced Polyamide and Comparison of Two Manufacturing Processes: Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) and Polymer Injection Moulding (PIM)

New technologies are offering progressively more effective alternatives to traditional ones. Additive Manufacturing (AM) is gaining importance in fields related to design, manufacturing, engineering and medicine, especially in applications which require complex geometries. Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) is framed within AM as a technology in which, due to their layer-by-layer deposition, thermoplastic polymers are used for manufacturing parts with a high degree of accuracy and minimum material waste during the process. The traditional technology corresponding to FDM is Polymer Injection Moulding, in which polymeric pellets are injected by pressure into a mould using the required geometry. The increasing use of PA6 in Additive Manufacturing makes it necessary to study the possibility of replacing certain parts manufactured by injection moulding with those created using FDM. In this work, PA6 was selected due to its higher mechanical properties in comparison with PA12. Moreover, its higher melting point has been a limitation for 3D printing technology, and a further study of composites made of PA6 using 3D printing processes is needed. Nevertheless, analysis of the mechanical response of standardised samples and the influence of the manufacturing process on the polyamide’s mechanical properties needs to be carried out. In this work, a comparative study between the two processes was conducted, and conclusions were drawn from an engineering perspective.

“…Os estudantes do Século XXI necessitam cada vez mais desenvolver essas competências e habilidades, a fim de lidar com um ambiente tecnológico em mudança [20]. Desse modo, acredita-se que o ensino da Computação pode contribuir para o desenvolvimento de habilidades relacionadas à construção do pensamento de maneira lógica, possibilitar o ensino da matemática mais lúdico para um maior número de estudantes, além de estimular capacidades cognitivas [2].…”

This case study aimed to cultivate 21st Century competences and skills related to Education 4.0, such as problem-solving, collaboration and autonomy. To this end, unplugged computing activities were performed with 25 students from four rural schools located in Tapajós-Arapiúns (Brazilian Amazon). As part of the methodology, a maze based on Google's Blockly Games tool was produced, inspired by hopscotch, a popular joke among children. After this case study, a qualitative analysis was performed, and it indicates that Unplugged Computing activities instigate students' skills and competences, as autonomy, communication and teamwork. Besides, this methodology proves to be useful for disseminating Education 4.0 concepts, due to its ease of application and low cost, especially in distant places with few resources.
