This article reports the experience of the subject “Teaching Seminars” offered to Masters and PhD students in the Production Engineering Program at COPPE / UFRJ, which took place between September and December 2010. This is a description of the actions undertaken that resulted in an enriching experience for all participants. First, we indicate the chosen criteria and the decisions taken in their preparation, observing the proposed objectives and selected bibliography in order to support its compliance. Then we analyze the tools used as support for classes and present the dynamics and content of the meetings. Finally, we present some considerations about the success of the experiment, considering the professors and students’ performance throughout the course. Practical simulations and discussions in the classroom were able to improve reflection about engineering education, as it is currently conceived, encouraging criticism to the subject.
