Abstract

In the context of hydrometeorology, this paper tackles an adopted teaching methodology of Problem Based Learning - PBL for a case study involving three different courses: Database System Project, Information Technologies, and Software Testing. A computer system prototype was developed. In this paper, it was also described the integration of the prototype implementation among the courses.
