Janna van Grunsven; Taylor Stone; Lavinia Marin – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2024
It is crucial for engineers to anticipate the socio-ethical impacts of emerging technologies. Such acts of anticipation are thoroughly normative and should be cultivated in engineering ethics education. In this paper we ask: 'how do we anticipate the socio-ethical implications of emerging technologies responsibly?' And 'how can such responsible…

Andrew Olewnik; Randy Yerrick; Mike Eastman – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2024
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…

Renato B. Rodrigues; Jillian Seniuk Cicek – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2024
Sociotechnical thinking (STT) has recently emerged in response to technical-social dualism. It is defined as the ability to identify, address, and respond to both social and technical dimensions of engineering. As the number of publications on STT increases, so does the need to map the literature. This paper provides a scoping literature review of…

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…

Henrik Worm Routhe; Jette Egelund Holgaard; Anette Kolmos – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2024
The increasing complexity of societal problems and the need for more interdisciplinary problem-solving in the future raise new demands for future engineering competences. Consequently, competences related to management and leadership must be reconsidered and reflected in both engineering education and engineering education research. This leads to…

Khosronejad, Maryam; Reimann, Peter; Markauskaite, Lina – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2021
Professional identity development is central to engineering education and has been an important focus of design for learning. However, little is known about how learners develop different aspects of engineering identity in response to the constraints and enablements of their learning environment. The purpose of this paper is to propose an…

Júlio César Dutra; Patrícia Schmid Calvão – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2024
This article aims to present our experience with transmedia storytelling in the design of materials selection, integrating two disciplines within an undergraduate mechanical engineering curriculum in Brazil. The students' project involved developing a narrative within the fictional universe of superheroes while exploring material properties using…

Kadam, Kapil; Mishra, Shitanshu; Deep, Anurag; Iyer, Sridhar – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2021
Engineering Drawing (ED) is one of the fundamental courses for various engineering disciplines. However, first-year engineering undergraduates often face difficulties in learning and solving ED problems that require visualisation of 3D objects. Conventional and modern teaching methods do assist the teaching-learning of a subject but do not…

Lee, Chorong; Cho, Hyun Jin; Melloch, Michael R.; Levesque-Bristol, Chantal – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2022
Although testing is used mainly for assessing student learning, a new teaching strategy called concept-point recovery (CPR) makes testing a learning opportunity for engineering students to review errors and misconceptions. CPR allows students to regain points by reviewing wrong answers and explaining the solution process to the instructor to…

Mubarak, Hamisi Ramadhan; Khan, Md. Shahadat Hossain – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2022
The growing need for good teaching practices in Engineering Education (Eng.Ed) that will improve the graduate's complex engineering problem-solving skills, has attracted a great deal of attention from researchers in recent years. This increasing interest demands that practitioners should examine their teaching practices from all corners,…

Cashman, Andrew; O'Mahony, Tom – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2022
In engineering, kinematics is widely regarded as a fundamental topic with the literature agreeing that students possess a wide range in understanding of the topic. This study aims to take a second-order approach by understanding and exploring the qualitatively different ways in which students approach solving kinematics problems. Phenomenography…

Shawcross, Judith K.; Ridgman, Tom W. – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2019
This paper reports on a study aiming to develop theory and improve practice within an Engineering Education context. The focus is on the development of students' graduate-level work skills during Higher Education programmes and a specific practice example provided an ideal study opportunity. Engaged Scholarship, a research approach from Management…

Pessoa, M. V. Pereira – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2023
Real-world design settings can be complex, ill-structured, open and typically uncertain and/or ambiguous about their goals and solution paths. This study contributes to understanding how to work with these types of problems in a course project setting. The main objective of the study is to identify, propose and validate a set of practical…

Wolff, Karin – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2020
Employer complaints of engineering graduate inability to 'apply knowledge' call for a better understanding of the theory-practice relationship in technology-driven twenty-first century industries. A novel systems-based model was developed to analyse how mechatronics engineering practitioners apply mathematics, physics and logic-based knowledge to…

Minichiello, Angela; Marx, Sherry; McNeill, Laurie; Hailey, Christine – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2019
While textbooks serve as a primary source of content material and problem-solving practice for undergraduates in engineering, studies that investigate how engineering students prepare assignments based on textbook problems are limited. To examine how engineering students complete textbook-based assignments outside of class, this exploratory…
