Abstract

Emergent technology requires fast changes in educational content and more student engagement beyond the classroom. Therefore, this paper proposes a learning methodology to foster knowledge discovery in these fields using a research-based approach. In particular, we promote active learning with the use of Systematic Mapping Studies (SMS), which bring students closer to in-demand topics in emerging technologies. We test our methodology by using it in the project module of a cloud computing course. We also evaluate the methodology in terms of student outcomes, i.e., work products and their opinions. From the analysis of this evaluation, we describe advantages and possible lines of action for future improvements.
