It is about developed and applied activities in GeoGebra software, called potentially meaningful materials. The whole proposal was based on MLT¨DMeaningful Learning Theory, proposed by David Ausubel, in order to contribute to a more efficient learning in general disciplines of engineering courses. %K Vector Mechanics %K GeoGebra %K Meaningful Learning %K Potentially Meaningful Teaching Material %K Potentially Meaningful Teaching Unit %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=51907
