Engineering education has been widely rethought, discussed and modified, having as one of its main focuses the development of active, cooperative and project-based learning. This paper discusses alternative learning methodologies, based on the pedagogical implementation of digital technologies in Engineering education, aiming to make both students and teachers into common and collaborative agents in the search and building of knowledge. The Unitary Operations Laboratory, from the Undergraduate course in Chemical Engineering at the Federal University of Minas Gerais, has been developing some changes to transform the teaching-learning process of its students. Such modifications are based on inclusion projects of cyborg tools, which increases the importance and interest in the product development, as well as intensifies other forms of access to information besides those presented by the teacher.
