This research aims to present a methodological tool used in engineering education, as a proposal of the Masters Program in Teaching of Science and Technology at Universidade Tecnológica Federal do Paraná - campus Ponta Grossa. The tool used was the webquest, considered a methodology to organize the process of teaching using Internet resources, which assists students in constructing knowledge in a learning environment, and has been applied to students of the Materials Science course for both Control and Automation Engineering and Mechanical Engineering degrees of the institution. The theoretical work that based this research was built by David Ausubel's studies on meaningful learning, and by the Information and Communication Technologies in Education (ICT). The conclusion reached with the use of joint tools (webquest and blog) is that when interactive media are allied to the teaching process, the learning process is enriched, because such information is available all the time, rising the possibility of interventions. Aspects such as social interaction, reintegration of students to classes and curiosity activation were the positive aspects mentioned by students.
