Abstract
This paper brings the report of using the table simulation method as a tool to reach required competences to Civil Engineering students. To obtain results in this project it was used questionnaires, pictures, movies and individual perceptions of the researchers. The theories used are directly linked to teaching by competence, the methodology of table simulation games and techniques of Scheduling and Controlling Constructions. The reached results are a) identifying and development of competences of civil engineer specialized in Scheduling and Controlling Constructions; and b) ascertainment that learning is more effective when applied setting exercises and table simulation techniques. In the classes where this methodology was applied it was verified that the students were able to develop the required competences to the proposed course and their reaction showed their preference and approval for that kind of classes. In addition, when compared, it reaches levels of attendance and knowledge higher than lecture classes.
