Technical standards are resources that are important for engineering and engineering technology students due to ABET accreditation requirements and future professional use of the documents. Previous studies have surveyed librarians at Association of Research Libraries (ARL) institutions with engineering programs and librarians at universities with…

Universal design for learning (UDL) is a pedagogical framework intended to promote accessibility and equity in learning environments, especially for students with disabilities. In UDL, instructors provide optionality and flexibility in the learning environment for representation, engagement, and expression, rather than expecting the learner to…

Purpose: Engineering students gain confidence and competency through continual practice of key skills. The social cognitive theory construct of self-efficacy provides a useful measure to assess students' beliefs in their ability to succeed or perform tasks. Research focused on the impacts of curricular engineering design experiences on student…

Course-based undergraduate research experience (CURE) exposes an entire class of students to scientific research and is thought to increase students' knowledge retention in science, technology, engineering and mathematics education. Microbial engineering is an interdisciplinary subject that combines science and engineering. We transformed a…

This study examines the attitudes of teachers and students towards the implementation of content and language integrated learning (CLIL) in the interdisciplinary study program English in Electrical Engineering and Informatics at Brno University of Technology (BUT). It aims to explore the benefits, challenges, and strategies for CLIL in the…

This study explores students' initial engagement with ill-structured problems before and after the introduction of engineering problem typology as a framework for problem engagement and reflection. Using problem discussions, debrief interviews, and qualitative analysis of written artifacts, we considered observed changes to students' initial…

Three real-world datasets are introduced for a petroleum engineering capstone design course, providing detailed problem statements, assessment criteria, team-building practices, and required software packages. Two surveys reveal that students prefer real datasets over synthetic ones, and despite initial challenges, students feel proud of their…

The application of Project-Based Learning (PBL) in a Reinforced Concrete course through the development of a real-life civil engineering project from its conception, as a coursework, is a challenged experience for students. As long as the coursework evolves, students develop real ways to think as an engineer and they work in an environment similar…

Final year individual projects have always been the culmination of a student's curriculum at university, requiring knowledge and skills gained over the whole course. However, with time, their scope and aim have moved from a more traditional research-oriented one to a more modular structure, where specific skills are demonstrated and assessed. This…

Aim/Purpose: The study seeks to utilize Augmented Reality (AR) in creating virtual laboratories for engineering education, focusing on enhancing teaching methodologies to facilitate student understanding of intricate and theoretical engineering principles while also assessing engineering students' acceptance of such laboratories. Background: AR, a…

While innovation commonly stems from the Entrepreneurial Mindset (EM), its integration within chemical engineering curricula has been notably limited. However, a shift is occurring as both private and public initiatives are now directing resources and attention toward equipping students for prosperous careers. This paper delineates the successful…

In the dynamic and complex environment of industrial engineering, soft skills have become fundamental elements to achieve professional success. This work analyzes (i) how industrial engineering students at the University of Valladolid in Spain perceive the effect of a teaching methodology (characterized by a sound and systematic integration of…

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…

This study examines the influences of learners' motivation, self-monitoring, and self-management on learning satisfaction in online learning environments. The participants were 185 undergraduates and 99 graduate students majoring in computer science and engineering. The participants' motivation, self-monitoring, self-management, and learning…

This study explores the effects of a computer algebra system on students' mathematical thinking. Mathematical thinking is identified with mathematical thinking powers and structures. We define mathematical thinking as students' capacity to specialize and generalize their previous knowledge to solve new mathematical problems. The study was…
