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…

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…

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…

Lyngdorf, Niels Erik Ruan; Du, Xiangyun; Lundberg, Adrian – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2023
Problem-based learning (PBL) has been implemented with different levels of success in first-year engineering education in response to the rapidly growing requirements for a higher degree of learner agency in graduates. This study is contextualised in a systemic problem-based learning environment and explores the sources of first-year engineering…

Linda N. Laursen; Thomas Ryberg – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2025
This paper contributes to current discussions of digital teaching and technology within the field of engineering design education. We enter this dialogue by analysing a hybrid digital learning design for a 15-ECTS engineering design course. The course design pedagogically integrates principles from networked learning research, Problem-Based…

Yasemin Kirkgöz; Burcu Turhan – Journal of Problem Based Learning in Higher Education, 2024
This multiple case study aims to describe how Turkish students in English Language Teaching (ELT) and Electrical-Electronics Engineering Program (EEP) conceive of Problem-based Learning (PBL), and how they experience their studies within a PBL-oriented curriculum. With the inclusion of these two cases into the study, the rationale is to represent…

Giajenthiran Velmurugan; Jacob Gorm Davidsen – Journal of Problem Based Learning in Higher Education, 2024
Supervision in higher education (HE) often balances the tension between fostering student autonomy and providing sufficient guidance, especially within undergraduate programs. This paper explores an under-researched area: the dynamics of group supervision in undergraduate education, specifically how students challenge their supervisor's expertise.…
