Résumé
Emerging engineers need to rely on a whole corpus of scientific and technical knowledge, but also on a full set of competencies. For engineering schools, a competency objectives approach requires specific pedagogical methods. Some competencies based on skills and attitudes are difficult to develop through traditional teaching so, in 2003, our institution implemented a project-oriented framework combining pedagogical methods such as project-based learning, active pedagogy, and traditional teaching paradigms. In practice, each semester, students work in groups on a competency-controlled project lasting over 100 hours per student. Although comparisons between various pedagogical methods are difficult and sensitive, numerous internal signals confirm the validity of several aspects of our mixed option.
