S16  O Ensino de Engenharia Mecânica    Titulo: A HISTÓRIA DA MECÂNICA E SEU PAPEL NA FORMAÇÃO DO ENGENHEIRO   Resumo : ABSTRACT. THIS WORK DESCRIBES A FIRST TRIAL, IN EXPERIMENTAL STAGE, OF A COURSE ON "HISTORY OF MECHANICS". THE AIM OF THIS COURSE IS TO PRESENT, AT ONCE, THE EVOLUTION OF MECHANICAL, CHEMISTRY AND ELECTRIC ENGINEERING FIELDS UNDER A HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE. THE PLAN IS TO FOLLOW, AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, A FACTUAL APPROACH IN ORDER TO SHED SOME LIGHT ON THE RELATIONS BETWEEN SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY. THE STUDENTS ARE ASKED TO TAKE PART OF THIS COURSE, BUILDING MACHINES OR EXPERIMENTS, AS WELL AS SEARCHING FOR HISTORICAL INFORMATION RELATED TO THE PROJECTS. HERE, WE PRESENT THE FIRST VERSION OF THE COURSE STRUCTURE, THE CLASS METHODOLOGY, THE PROJECTS SELECTED, AND, FINALLY, THE EVALUATION OF THE COURSE DONE BY THE STUDENTS. KEY-WORDS: ENGINEERING EDUCATION, CURRICULUM, HISTORY OF MECHANICS.     Autores : Bannwart, Antonio C.
