Direct linkLaoui, Tahar; O'Donoghue, John – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2008
This paper is based on the experience acquired in teaching materials science/engineering to first year university students. It has been observed that students struggle with some of the fundamental materials concepts addressed in the module/course. This applies to delivered lectures but extends to the incorporation of tutorial sessions provided…

Choulier, Denis; Picard, Fabienne; Weite, Pierre-Alain – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2007
Reflective practice is an important vehicle for the apprenticeship of tacit and procedure-oriented knowledge. This article explores the development of reflective practice in the teaching of an innovative design course. Starting from a characterization of the "materials of a design situation" (problem-solution duality, methods and tools,…

Hayashi, Yusuke; Bourdeau, Jacqueline; Mizoguchi, Riichiro – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2009
This paper describes the achievements of an innovative eight-year research program first introduced in Mizoguchi and Bourdeau (2000), which was aimed at building a theory-aware authoring system by using ontological engineering. To date, we have proposed OMNIBUS, an ontology that comprehensively covers different learning/instructional theories and…

Mathes, J. C.; And Others – 1975
Three possibilities are discussed for providing communications skills to engineering students. In preference to having the English department teach technical writing to engineers, with either total or partial control of methodology, the authors recommend that engineering educators undertake the task themselves.
