Camperos, July Andrea Gomez; Jaramillo, Haidee Yulady; Castrillón, Alexci Suárez – Journal of Language and Linguistic Studies, 2022
With the rapid growth of the technology era, the conventional teaching approach is not sufficient for students of the millennial generation. With this in mind, this article presents the justification for incorporating Kolb's experiential learning, based on laboratory practices with an environment supported by simulation software, combined with…

Hendrickx, Marloes; Schüler-Meyer, Alexander; Verhoosel, Clemens V. – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2023
To increase students' sense of ownership, the present study incorporated elements of Challenge-based learning (CBL) into a mechanical engineering course. CBL is a desirable pedagogy adopted by many universities of technology. Although the boundaries and constraints of a regular course hinder the application of CBL, some of its benefits can be…

Servant-Miklos, Virginie F. C.; Kolmos, Anette – Journal of Engineering Education, 2022
Background: Problem-oriented project work, also known as problem and project-based learning (PBL), is a popular educational approach in engineering education. However, the focus of the literature on the implementation of PBL has been at the course and institutional levels. Scant attention has been paid to the student experience, especially…

Andreia Leles; Luciana Zaina; Jose Roberto Cardoso – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2024
The teaching-learning process in engineering aims to meet current societal demands and address real challenges faced by businesses and the job market. Challenge-based learning (CBL) has gained traction as an active and innovative approach in engineering education, introducing real challenges and open questions to the classroom regarding…

Hui Zhang; Haihan Zhang; Qian Zhang – Innovations in Education and Teaching International, 2024
Computer programming and municipal engineering (ME) students' specialised knowledge are still poorly integrated, leading to limited improvement of students' programming abilities. This paper describes an effective attempt in ME at Xi'an University of Architecture and Technology (XAUAT). Students were divided into several teams and required to…

Rees Lewis, Daniel G.; Carlson, Spencer E.; Riesbeck, Christopher K.; Gerber, Elizabeth M.; Easterday, Matthew W. – Journal of Engineering Education, 2023
Background: To create design solutions experienced engineering designers engage in expert iterative practice. Researchers find that students struggle to learn this critical engineering design practice, particularly when tackling real-world engineering design problems. Purpose/Hypothesis: To improve our ability to teach iteration, this study…

Canan Mesutoglu; Durdane Bayram-Jacobs; Johanna Vennix; Anne Limburg; Birgit Pepin – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2024
Background: In responding to the global problems facing humankind, there is great value in equipping science and engineering students with skills to function well in multidisciplinary teams. Little attention has been paid into the factors that influence multidisciplinary collaboration and teamwork of science and engineering students. Purpose: This…

Rizwan Azam; Muhammad Umer Farooq; Muhammad Rizwan Riaz – Journal of Civil Engineering Education, 2024
An undergraduate degree in engineering requires students to not only be proficient in engineering knowledge but also acquire comprehensive skills such as independent learning ability, strong communication skills, social knowledge, and innovative thinking. Therefore, problem-based learning (PBL), which is a student-centered approach, is getting…

Mark Vincent Huerta; Susan Sajadi; Lisa Schibelius; Olivia Jane Ryan; Marin Fisher – Journal of Engineering Education, 2024
Background: Developing teamwork skills is a central objective of engineering education. Psychological safety and conflict management are pivotal components of teamwork, yet despite their significance, research in engineering project-based learning (PBL) contexts is scant. Understanding students' experiences with psychological safety and its…

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…
