(573) USING VIDEOS TO SUPPORT LEARNING IN FOOD ENGINEERING PRACTICAL TASKS

摘要

In this article, we present our experience on how knowledge is acquired in the practical sessions of thesubject “Fundamentals of Agricultural and Food Engineering” (second year), which are supported byvideos uploaded to the PoliformaT educational platform of UPV (Universitat Politècnica de València).This was a compulsory requirement to obtain the Agriculture Engineering Degree in the academic year2012-2013. This experience was evaluated by comparing the marks that students received for thereports they completed in the academic year 12-13 with those completed in the previous academicyear (11-12), in which no videos were uploaded. The students' answers were very good, and most ofthem had largely achieved the learning outcomes with higher marks than in the previous course.
