Abstract
The project IEEE-IST Academic is an initiative of the IEEE Student Branch at Instituto Superior Técnico (IST) and since its beginnings (May 2012) counts with the collaboration of several professors of IST. Organized by course topics, the first Academic videos offer all undergraduate students at IST complementary materials to most of the Mathematics undergraduate courses, Computer Sciences Introductory Course, Chemistry and Electronics. The students technical team is responsible for the capture, processing and edition of the materials, and is also in charge of the design and back office of the IEEE-IST Academic portal. The videos are designed to be accessed from several platforms, such as: laptops, tablets, smartphones, and extensively make use of visualization and 3D graphics 3D. The Academic videos are designed to be more close to the courses syllabus at IST, but can easily be a future reference for other Portuguese, Brazilian and European schools of Engineering, Science and Technology.
