Abstract

This article depicts a concrete use case scenario for the CyberSyn Methodology, while assessing active learning in an engineering course the Universidad de los Andes, Bogotá (Colombia). It is the outcome of our Master of Science program research about active learning in engineering. The paper begins with an overview of the CyberSyn Methodology followed by a concrete use case. Finally, we present our conclusions.
