Du, Xiangyun; Lundberg, Adrian; Ayari, Mohamed A.; Naji, Khalid K.; Hawari, Alaa – Journal of Engineering Education, 2022
Background: Few studies have reported how students enact learner agency in a team setting or examined what elements of team settings students perceive as more supportive of their learning in problem- and project-based learning (PBL) processes. Purpose: This study explores how engineering students perceive their enactment of learner agency,…

Jiang, Dan; Dahl, Bettina; Du, Xiangyun – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2022
This study explores how engineering students develop learner agency in an intercultural PBL (problem- and project-based learning) environment, along with the factors that affect their development. Theoretically, learner agency is framed within three interrelated dimensions: intrapersonal, behavioural, and environmental. A narrative inquiry…

Du, Xiangyun; Naji, Khalid Kamal – Journal of Civil Engineering Education, 2021
This study explores engineering students' enactment of collective agency and perceptions of professional identity. Empirical data were drawn from observation and group interviews with 30 engineering students in a civil engineering course using a problem and project-based learning (PBL) approach. Using the technique of quantifying qualitative data,…

Zhao, Ke; Du, Xiangyun; Tan, Huiyu – Language, Culture and Curriculum, 2021
In light of increased cross-border movements of students to pursue their academic studies, university educators in many contexts are concerned about a lack of interactive engagement among students from different cultural backgrounds because of the use of L2 in international programmes. This study explores how students develop engagement in…
