Guanes, Giselle; Wang, Linjue; Delaine, David A.; Dringenberg, Emily – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2022
Engineering design decisions have non-trivial implications, and empathic approaches are one way that engineers can understand and translate the perspectives of diverse stakeholders. Prior literature demonstrates that students must develop empathic skills and beliefs that these skills are important to embody empathic approaches in meaningful ways.…

Genfu Wu; Kejie Wu – Journal of Biological Education, 2024
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…

Kim, Leo; Jang, Deok-Ho – Higher Education Policy, 2021
In order to foster the knowledge economy, collaboration between government, industry and academy is becoming increasingly important. The Triple-Helix (government-industry-academy) model is geared toward innovation in academic institutions and the transfer of academic knowledge to industrial and/or societal domains. This article studies crucial…

Eva Ellederová; Valeriia Denysenko – TESL-EJ, 2025
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…

Transnational Technical Communication: English as a Business Lingua Franca in Engineering Workplaces
Hodges, Amy; Seawright, Leslie – Business and Professional Communication Quarterly, 2023
Recent scholarship argues for increased attention to students' linguistic diversity and intercultural communication competence. Our study examined the experiences of 10 working engineers who had graduated from an English-medium international branch campus in the Arabian Gulf. An analysis of their interviews reveals the complex role of English as a…

Pérez, M.; Ayerdi, V.; Arroyo, Z. – Universal Journal of Educational Research, 2018
Eight mechanical engineering students built three didactic models that show how different mechanical elements and mechanisms work in a pick-up truck. This study reviews their experience while manufacturing them, challenges faced and their learning experience. The project was directed by students entirely which posed planning, organizing,…

Weber, Karen – International Journal of ePortfolio, 2018
This article examines engineering employers' perspectives on an electronic portfolio for hiring purposes. Eleven employers of engineers viewed one student's electronic portfolio (ePortfolio). To learn the potential for using ePortfolios within the hiring process, hiring managers, human resources directors, and recruiters from the engineering…

Johnson, Aaron W.; Wendell, Kristen B.; Watkins, Jessica – Journal of Pre-College Engineering Education Research, 2017
Engineering design places unique demands on teachers, as students are coming up with new, unanticipated ideas to problems along often unpredictable trajectories. These demands motivate a responsive approach to teaching, in which teachers attend their students' thinking and flexibly adapt their instructional plans and objectives. A great deal of…

Van den Broeck, L.; De Laet, T.; Lacante, M.; Pinxten, M.; Van Soom, C.; Langie, G. – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2018
To stimulate a flexible lifelong learning system students can enter university via lateral entry. Unlike traditional first-year students, lateral entrance students are not well-studied. Therefore this study focuses on comparing first-year students with a specific group of lateral entrants, namely bridging students at the Faculty of Engineering…

Pleasants, Jacob; Olson, Joanne K. – Journal of Pre-College Engineering Education Research, 2019
To effectively incorporate engineering into their instruction, K-12 teachers need sufficient knowledge of the engineering discipline. An important component of teachers' engineering knowledge is their understanding of the nature of engineering: what engineers do, the epistemological underpinnings of engineering, and the relationships between…

Peterman, Karen; Daugherty, Jenny L.; Custer, Rodney L.; Ross, Julia M. – International Journal of Science Education, 2017
Science teachers are being called on to incorporate engineering practices into their classrooms. This study explores whether the Engineering-Infused Lesson Rubric, a new rubric designed to target best practices in engineering education, could be used to evaluate the extent to which engineering is infused into online science lessons. Eighty lessons…

Newton, Sunni; Alemdar, Meltem; Hilton, Ethan; Linsey, Julie; Fu, Katherine – International Journal of STEM Education, 2018
Background: A redesigned curriculum for teaching engineering graphics was adopted in an introductory mechanical engineering course. The rollout of this curriculum was staggered, allowing for comparisons of student perceptions across the newly revised and previous instructional approaches. The new curriculum borrows from content and pedagogy…

Szmodis, Whitney E.; Bodzin, Alec – Electronic Journal of Science Education, 2018
A project-based engineering education unit was implemented in a primary school in Cambodia. An effectiveness study was conducted to investigate students' attitudes and expectations of engineering as a profession and students' self-perceived 21st century skills. The findings revealed that prior to the curriculum implementation both male and female…

Solnosky, Ryan; Fairchild, Joshua – Advances in Engineering Education, 2017
Many engineering faculty have limited skills and/or assessment tools to evaluate team dynamics in multidisciplinary team-based capstone courses. Rapidly deployable tools are needed here to provide proactive feedback to teams to facilitate deeper learning. Two surveys were developed based on industrial and organizational psychology theories around…
