This study aims to propose a method for mapping the implementation of active learning approaches by quantifying engineering teachers' self-perception. It also seeks to examine the correlations between the implementation of active learning approaches and training, as well as publications focused on active learning. To conduct the study, active…

Inquiry-based learning as an instructional approach has been popular amongst STEM (i.e. science, technology, engineering, mathematics) disciplines, but the practice specifically in engineering education deserves further exploration. Employing a case-study approach, the present study was aimed to explore POGIL (Process Oriented Guided Inquiry…

Purpose: Researchers have opined that the quality of commitment to pedagogical approaches by lecturers is one of the most important factors in determining student academic success. The purpose of this paper is to analyse the mediating effect of research informed teaching on the relationship between lecturer commitment to use of pedagogical…

This dissertation explored STEM faculty description of using a Student Response System (SRS) in higher education engineering classrooms, aimed to understand their experiences, practices, and perceptions of SRS as a pedagogical tool for enhancing student engagement and learning outcomes. The research questions driving this qualitative study focused…

Active learning pedagogical practices are more effective than instructor-centered teaching in building students' knowledge, skills, and understanding of engineering content and concepts. As such, a large-scale professional development (PD) program was created to move faculty toward the use of active learning. The project aimed to engage faculty in…

This paper explains the design and implementation of a novel didactic strategy based on learning styles for teaching automatic control theory in engineering. Traditional research on engineering education has worked to develop teaching methodologies, educational resources, and assessment tasks without considering the learning styles of the…

This work considers three research objectives: to analyze the perception of instructors of the incidence of PBL/PjBL on content learning and skill development; to identify the success factors that they believe promote learning when using them, as well as their importance; and to identify the difficulties they face, and the frequency with which…

Contribution: This study extends the embedded expert literature by examining a cross-college partnership between engineering and education faculty and its impact on the engineering faculty's teaching practices. Background: Previous embedded expert models focused on disciplinary expert models that required extensive educational training to prepare…

Implementing inquiry-oriented instructional proposals at the university level collides with many constraints related to the current pedagogical paradigm based on the transmission of previously established works of knowledge. One such constraint comes from defining subjects' curricula by a set of topics to study, not questions to inquire. Our…

This paper will present the argument that while Problem Based Learning (PBL) (or its variant Project Based Learning, PjBL) provides significant benefits and advantages to student learning in of itself, the full benefit of PBL is only completely realised as part of an "integrated" curriculum that provides a variety of learning…

It is increasingly vital, in the current era of ever-expanding remote work and learning, to develop blended methods for engineering education. This research aims to develop a blended, project-based information and communication technology (ICT) education model, conceptualizing a digital ecosystem based on stakeholders' experiences and…

Engineering education has a long and well-researched history; however, recent declines in the number of undergraduate students entering and matriculating through to graduation has commanded the engineering education community's attention. To help counter the declining number of students entering and persisting in engineering, an engineering…

This investigation delves into the comparative reticence and passive participation tendencies among engineering students from Malaysia and Vietnam, challenging the prevailing pedagogical paradigms that prioritize vocal engagement and analytical prowess in educational forums. Through a meticulous phenomenographic qualitative analysis of 16 students…

This qualitative longitudinal study explored three engineering instructors' professional agency in implementing project-based learning (PBL), including multiple sets of data (18 interviews, observations, and written reflections spanning three semesters). The results show that the instructors' care for students, interest in pedagogical innovation,…

This research is aimed at investigating the implementation of project-based learning (PBL) using a voice recorder, Orai application, and web as material sources. It is conducted to determine the impact of combining PBL and digital tools on speaking performance. The participants were 80 students who took English subject in State Polytechnic of…
