<p>The influence of different educational approaches on the acquisition of scientific concepts, procedures and attitudes in a basic course on physics for engineering students gave rise to a proposal involving curricular and methodological innovations in mechanics and thermodynamics. Its aim was to focus<br />teaching on fundamental laws and highlight the importance of methodological tools in Physics. The analysis of the introduced changes led to a process characterized by the ongoing assessment of the strategies in progress and the linking of curricular changes to the fulfillment of specially designed tasks<br />to be developed in class. In these tasks students had an active role in building up their knowledge.</p>
