WIND ENERGY EDUCATION FOR ELECTRONIC ENGINEERING STUDENTS

摘要

This document presents introductory materials about a doctoral education thesis research project. Education on non-conventional renewable energies, namely education on wind energy, is considered as an emerging paradigm, and is applied by employing Project-Based Learning methodologies as part of the Electronics Engineering program at Universidad Distrital Francisco Jose de Caldas (Bogota - Colombia). Since non-conventional renewable energies have drawn great interest in developing countries in recent decades, it is necessary to implement education programs, at all levels, that allow public engagement of these technologies by all the population.
