Manual de laboratório para práticas de tecnologias da Indústria 4.0

Abstract

Industry 4.0 still an emerging field that continues to grow and demands qualified professionals capable of handling its technologies. This makes it essential for Electrical Engineering students to gain practical experiences related to this topic during their studies, in order to reduce the gap between what they learn at the university and what is expected in the job market. The purpose of this work is to develop a laboratory manual for Industry 4.0 technologies, containing exercises based on relevant learning styles. To achieve this, technical manuals of the CP Lab didactic platform, available in the CPS and Industry 4.0 Laboratory at the Federal University of Amazonas, were analyzed and interpreted. Furthermore, a literature review was conducted on relevant learning styles to guide the exercises proposed in the manual. Based on this, the manual was organized and structured progressively, including information about components, resources, instructions, and examples of how to use the available tools and software. In addition, the developed exercises were designed to address the learning styles of Kolb, Felder & Silverman, and Problem-Based Learning, thus making the manual suitable for providing practical experiences that complement the theories taught throughout the course.
