Abstract

Digital images are used in image processing, a growing application area in many scientific disciplines. In Linear Algebra, digital images can be used for more meaningful and motivating learning by engineering students. A new digital imaging space as a learning tool has been developed over the last five years, establishing an interaction between digital learning resources and the curriculum, while providing personalized learning opportunities. Students of two engineering degrees at the Coimbra Institute of Engineering use this learning tool in laboratory classes as a complement.

The purpose of this paper is to present some experiences developed by students within the scope of two Linear Algebra courses that use the new space of digital images specifically to support learning. In this space, students use digital images as a methodology for learning the syllabus and associated mathematical skills. Six experiments were carried out and the results are presented and discussed, highlighting the contribution of this type of methodology as a significant support in the teaching and learning of mathematics for engineers. Learning in this space, and due to the use of recent technologies, becomes effective and stimulating for the students and the teacher manages to "enchant" his/her students in the teaching-learning process.
