Resumo

The paper describes the implementation of a teaching approach in accounting subjects aimed at promoting the active involvement of students in the learning process. The ultimate goal is that students can continue their training, in an autonomous way, upon leaving university, which will allow them to adapt to the continuous changes they will have to face in the exercise of their profession. To this end, the teaching methodology promotes learning by doing; the role of the teacher ceases to be that of providing knowledge, to support, guide and encourage students to derive, by themselves, the solution to the problems addressed in the subject. The work in class is completed with an important volume of tasks to be done outside the classroom. In coherence with the teaching methodology, the evaluation system contemplates, by means of different continuous assessment activities, the effort made by students in class, but, fundamentally, the work developed outside the classroom. With the proposed activities we also pursue the development of interpersonal and communication skills, essential for our graduates in their professional practice.
