26. The Skateboard Factory: a teaching case on discrete-event simulation
Abstract Real-life applications during the teaching process are a desirable practice in simulation education. However, access to real cases imposes some difficulty in implement such practice, especially when the classes are large. This paper presents a teaching case for a computer simulation course in a production engineering undergraduate program. The motiv

30. Understanding why women are under-represented in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) within Higher Education: a regional case study
Abstract Participation rates of women in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) is comparatively low and their attrition rates high. An obvious solution is to attract more women to study such subjects. In 2016 the authors undertook research to find out why so few women enrolled in STEM subjects and investigate ways of increasing their recrui

36. Sobre la Enseñanza de la Distribución de Poisson en Carreras de Ingeniería*
In the present study, two methodologies related to the teaching of Poisson’s distribution were examined in the field of engineering education. The first methodology is based on a problematic way around the content domain, considering this distribution as approximation to Binomial distribution. The second methodology, based on the dialectic relations of ind
