Evangelia Zontou; Stavros Kaminaris; Maria Rangoussi – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2024
Among the numerous fields permeated by Virtual Reality (VR), this review focuses on education and specifically, engineering education. VR allows engineering students to safely and cost-efficiently experience realistic yet simulated environments otherwise inaccessible, costly and/or dangerous. The feelings of presence and immersion generated by VR…

Motejlek, Jiri; Alpay, Esat – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2023
The use of VR in engineering education provides a means for contextualising learning through authentic and engaging scenarios, e.g. the touring and operation of a chemical plant. This paper presents the design of an immersive VR simulation of an existing pilot plant in the School and its evaluation through a randomised non-inferiority trial to…

Musa Ndiaye; Chilala K. Bowa; Wezi N. Nyimbili; Kangwa A. Nkonde; Richard Onyancha; Mabvuto Mwanza; Musonda E. Kabaso; John Siame – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2024
COVID-19 has caused major disruptions in the way engineering education is conducted all over the world. The impact has been greater in developing countries that still lack the necessary tools for pandemic-based training. In this work, we carry out a survey on three public universities based in Zambia. The survey investigates the impact of COVID-19…

Marinelli, Melissa; Male, Sally A.; Valentine, Andrew; Guzzomi, Andrew; van der Veen, Tom; Hassan, Ghulam Mubashar – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2023
Access to interactive, simulated work environments through virtual reality (VR) has potential in teaching safety in design (SiD) to engineering students with reduced risk, cost and inconvenience. However, there is limited understanding of what students learn from immersive VR interventions, or the outcomes from specific learning activities. This…

Boettcher, K.; Terkowsky, C.; Schade, M.; Brandner, D.; Grünendahl, S.; Pasaliu, B. – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2023
A newly-developed online laboratory experiment in immersive virtual reality (VR) is used for process engineering students. A digital twin (DT) of a jet pump was realised using the game engine Unreal Engine 4. The chance was taken for an instructional redesign deviating from the conventional cookbook-experiment to better integrate the changing…

Frady, Kristin – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2023
Virtual labs offer the promise of increasing and expanding learning opportunities, yet more needs to be understood about pedagogical implementation in higher education settings particularly within engineering technology (ET), vocational education and training (VET), and related sub-baccalaureate programmes. There is little empirical research on…

Uzunidis, Dimitris; Pagiatakis, Gerasimos – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2023
The paper describes the design and implementation of a virtual lab for on-line lab training on optical communications, part of the 'Optical Communications' course offered at the Dept. of Electrical & Electronic Engineering Educators, School of Pedagogical & Technological Education (ASPETE), Athens, Greece. The virtual lab is based on the…

Faridaddin Vahdatikhaki; Ilona Friso-van den Bos; Sajad Mowlaei; Bas Kollöffel – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2024
Practical laboratory sessions are essential for engineering education, demanding efficient use of limited time. In recent years, Virtual Reality (VR) technologies have introduced Virtual Laboratories (VLs), offering the potential to enhance students' educational experience. Despite their potential, VLs are rarely utilised in civil engineering…

Basu, Debarati; Lohani, Vinod K. – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2023
In this study, we investigated students' learning outcomes and engagement with an online laboratory called Online Watershed Learning System (OWLS) employed within a classroom and explored the relationship between learning outcome and engagement. The OWLS is the web interface for a real-time environmental monitoring system and integrates a…

Bosman, Lisa; Kotla, Bhavana; Madamanchi, Aasakiran; Bartholomew, Scott; Byrd, Vetria – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2023
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a rapidly developing field with growing importance in engineering, mainly as it serves to better understand and manipulate big data. However, the literature is sparse on how to educate engineers on the use of AI applications. For many years, a role-playing simulation known as the 'Beer Distribution Game' has been a…

May, Dominik; Morkos, Beshoy; Jackson, Andrew; Hunsu, Nathaniel J.; Ingalls, Amy; Beyette, Fred – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2023
The COVID-19 pandemic forced universities to suspend face-to-face instruction, prompting a rapid transition to online education. As many lab courses transitioned online, this provided a rare window of opportunity to learn about the challenges and affordances that the online lab experiences created for students and instructors. We present results…

Coleman, Philip; Hosein, Anesa – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2023
Laboratory tasks often focus on mechanical procedures leaving limited time and opportunities for students to build conceptual knowledge. We investigate to what extent introducing simulation tasks to preparation work can enable students to build their conceptual knowledge. We surveyed two cohorts of students taking an electronics module. Laboratory…

Sevim-Cirak, Nese; Yildirim, Zahide – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2020
This phenomenological study investigates mining engineering students' game playing experiences for educational purposes and seeks to understand the essence of their experiences. In this study, three non-gamer and three-gamer mining engineering students were selected through a criterion sampling method, and then data were collected through in-depth…

Nikolic, Sasha; Ros, Montserrat; Jovanovic, Kosta; Stanisavljevic, Zarko – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2021
The laboratory is an integral component of engineering education, resulting in a multitude of studies. Generally, the research focus is on the laboratory innovation, rather than learning itself. It is observed that empirical evidence is strongly built around student perceptions of their learning or experience via survey instruments; and in some…

Hamzeh, Farook; Theokaris, Christina; Rouhana, Carel; Abbas, Yara – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2017
While many construction companies claim substantial productivity and profit gains when applying lean construction principles, it remains a challenge to teach these principles in a classroom. Lean construction emphasises collaborative processes and integrated delivery practices. Consequently, new teaching methods that nurture such values should…
