Didactic Basis:
In the Learning Unit Mechanics and the Environment, the student applies
the principles and laws of Kinematics and Dynamics in solving environmental
problems, for their understanding and analysis in hypothetical situations and / or
daily life through carrying out both theoretical and experimental activities, based
on Classical Mechanics. Likewise, it develops skills to identify the core principles
that underlie the phenomena of movement, synthesizing the evidence obtained
through experimentation, at the same time that it strengthens the foundations
acquired in The Science of Movement.
In addition, it promotes Education focused on learning and Education based on
competencies, as well as Academic Innovation, Structuring Axes and Transversal
Axis of the Educational Model and the Academic Model of the UANL respectively.
This promotes meaningful learning, considering the student as the center of the
teaching-learning process. Likewise, innovative strategies are incorporated inside
and outside the classroom, which reinforces the student's academic training.
