Abstract

In this work, the use of simulation resources in classroom development in courses related with electromagnetism will be analyzed. Specific contents developed for the course termed Propagation and Transmission of Waves, imparted in the second year of Telecommunication Engineering Degree at the Universidad Pública de Navarra (UPNA) will be presented, as well as the impact in the learning process and the evaluation of the course.
