Abstract

This article describes a teaching experience in processor design and microprocessor systems in a theoretical and pratical course called Systems, Processors and Peripherals for the Undergraduate courses in Electrical Engineering, Control and Automation and Systems Engineering at UFMG. It is intended to show how this course has been developed through the use of active teaching methodologies (project-oriented) and building materials, guided by this methodology. It is considered a proposed approach to practical work, motivating students to acquire their own knowledge through teaching materials developed and presented their own design solutions, rather than the simple repetition of predeter-mined tasks. The results observed are increased motivation and participation in class, search the contents of the work in a variety of sources beyond the textbooks and students' interaction in the course of finding adequate solutions to the proposed work.
