Abstract
This paper presents the evolution of a supervised work carried out in small groups of students included within the compulsory subject Theory of Machines and Mechanisms at Barcelona School of Industrial Engineering—ETSEIB. The implementation of the supervised work started during the academic year 1999–2000 and it has remained till the academic year 2011–2012 with the idea of being an opportunity for the students to put in practice specific knowledge and general skills. The paper explains the experience and enhancements done by the teaching staff during all these years in order to fulfill with the expected objectives related to the supervised work.
