11. The present work pretends to measure the levels of financial literacy of the students
of the University of Porto, identifying financial behavior and attitudes patterns and more
critical areas of knowledge. We intend to do this trough self-completion and paper based
questionnaires, based on the recommendations and research developed by reference
entities at the national and international level, as the OECD and the Portuguese Central
Bank. (Mendes, 2013)
12. Since then, the issue of financial literacy has raised a growing concern by
governments and financial system regulatory authorities. It is globally recognized that
more skilled consumers will demand for better, cheaper and more appropriated products
and services, therefore contributing to more effective regulation and hence to greater
financial markets’ efficiency. (Mendes, 2013)
13. The results of the investigation show that the students’ financial literacy levels differ
according the area and cycle of studies, as well as with age, gender, area of studies in
the high school and the years of professional experience. Researchers also found
evidence of a positive correlation between the financial inclusion of the students and
their levels of financial literacy, proving that more financial literate individuals tend to be
more integrated in the financial system, and vice-versa. The financial knowledge,
attitudes and behaviors are also positively correlated, thus, students with better financial
knowledge tend to adopt more appropriate financial attitudes and behaviors. (Mendes,
2013)

.
14. Then, besides compare the results with the national scene; researchers are going to
identify the existent relationships between the financial literacy levels and some social,
demographic and economic factors of the individuals. In addition, it’s important to see to
what extent the financial literacy level is influenced by the gender, age, familiar financial
situation or the education base of the students. Moreover, it aims to analyze the possible
existence of areas of major concern, within the overall financial knowledge and skills.
(Mendes, 2013)
15. Proponents believe that this type of research could be useful in terms of defining
future policies, both in terms of regulation and educational programs, either at university
or at pre-university level. It will not only help to perceive which aspects of financial
literacy require greater attention from these programs, but also may be useful in defining
their content. Moreover, it will help to define and highlight the role of the universities and
high schools with regard to this subject. (Mendes, 2013)
16. By an individual perspective, some academics argue that individuals with higher
levels of financial education tend to have a more responsible financial behavior, with less
likelihood of debt default and a more responsible and conscious use of credit cards.
Moreover, they also tend to transact in low-cost manners, incurring lower fees and using
low-cost borrowing. There is also empiric evidence that individuals with a higher level of
financial literacy tend to earn more income from their savings and invest in a more varied
set of financial instruments. (Mendes, 2013)
17. Because of the inadequacy of principles and claimed, it is also important to analyze
the demand side, the role of consumers of financial products and services. Some
authors suggest that the low levels of financial literacy of the population may have
favored the subprime mortgage crisis started in the late 2000s. (Mendes, 2013)
20. We evaluate the quality and depth to which faculty apply diverse teaching strategies
for statics courses. It is our goal to increase the adoption of research-based instructional
strategies in statics courses, which will increase the success of students in earning
engineering degrees. We plan to motivate this change by providing information on the
effectiveness of innovative teaching methods in statics courses, data on effective
methods and environments that facilitate faculty adopting these methods and applying
them effectively, and by providing data on the importance of statics instruction to
students’ satisfaction and knowledge of statics. (Komarek, 2015)
