description This paper presents a teaching approach for an undergraduate course of project management under the learning by doing paradigm. The course experience as a whole is presented, including planning aspects for all scheduled activities, are provided later. The definition of the project is provided, as well as its specific details for practical project work, the main educative instrument of the course, in order to bring out the most relevant aspects of the approach. These include improving the learning process by means of a collaborative model and details of the assessment process that make continuous improvement possible. Detailed research to evaluate the effect of students' previous work experience of this learning model is also considered in this paper.
