Kisaalita, William S.; Muyanja, Charles K.; Mativo, John M. – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2022
Undergraduate science/engineering students are being encouraged to engage in inquiry- or design-based learning with global dimensions. However, outcomes of longer versus short overseas engagements have been predominantly anecdotal. In light of the high cost associated with longer engagements, a comparative assessment for short and long stays is…

Siqing Wei; Li Tan; Yiyao Zhang; Matthew Ohland – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2024
In spite of the sudden onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, many instructors who used team-based pedagogies shifted them online rather than suspending them entirely, but with limited time and resources. To examine the difference in team dynamics and outcomes for courses in Spring 2019 and Spring 2020 of over 1500 first-year engineering students per…

Havenga, Marietjie; Swart, Athur James – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2022
Problem-based learning is an active student-centred approach, which requires engineering students to work together in solving real-world problems. This study aims to review the incorporation of cooperative learning principles in an introductory first-year engineering course that aimed to develop students' group skills while working on…

J. E. Tait; L. A. Alexander; E. I. Hancock; J. Bisset – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2024
Engineering students enter a challenging sector in higher education and are potentially at risk of poor mental health and or mental wellbeing and less likely to seek help when experiencing poor mental health or wellbeing. We carried out a scoping review using Joanna Briggs Institute scoping review methodology. Ten databases were searched over a…

Campbell, Anita L.; Direito, Inês; Mokhithi, Mashudu – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2021
Dropout from engineering studies has been linked to 'fixed mindset' beliefs of intelligence as fixed-at-birth that make students more likely to disengage when facing new challenges. In contrast, 'growth mindset' beliefs that intelligence can be improved with effort make students more likely to persist when confronting difficulties. This systematic…

Van den Broeck, Lynn; De Laet, Tinne; Lacante, Marlies; Pinxten, Maarten; Van Soom, Carolien; Langie, Greet – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2020
When students enter higher education, they can encounter the feeling of unpreparedness. In fact, students who lack the appropriate prior education are less prepared. Therefore developing and implementing appropriate interventions for incoming students is important. This study examined the effectiveness of two new interventions at the Faculty of…

Moloney, Grace; Ahern, Aoife – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2022
This thesis examines why, despite extensive research, women are underrepresented in engineering courses in many countries, including Ireland. The reasons for this underrepresentation are not well-understood. This study seeks to contribute to the understanding of women's decision-making regarding their studying engineering, through the application…

García, Lucy; Calle, Maria; De Castro, Adela; Soto, José Daniel; Torres, Luis; Candelo-Becerra, John E.; Schettini, Norelli – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2020
Engineering professionals need to employ argumentative skills to support their decisions. This research presents the findings of an intervention that was designed and implemented at two universities in Colombia, South America, to help students enhance their written argumentative skills through essays on ethical dilemmas. Engineering professors…

Murray, Mike; Hendry, Gillian; McQuade, Robert – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2020
Vocational disciplines such as engineering provide an ideal opportunity for contextualising the curriculum. The provision of co-curricular activities can stimulate students to assimilate their prior knowledge and skills whilst enhancing employability attributes. Team-based co-curricular activities linked to problem-based learning can offer…

Valentine, Andrew; Lowenhoff, Stephanie; Marinelli, Melissa; Male, Sally; Hassan, Ghulam Mubashar – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2020
Engineering professionals are expected to conduct their work in an ethical manner. However, students may receive limited instruction on ethics and demonstrate resistance to learning about ethics in practice, contributing to graduates being ill-prepared to face ethical dilemmas in the workplace. This study investigated the nascent learning by…

Haugan, John; Lysebo, Marius; Lauvas, Per – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2017
Formative assessment can serve as a catalyst for increased student effort and student learning. Yet, many engineering degree programmes are dominated by summative assessment and make limited use of formative assessment. The present case study serves as an example on how formative assessment can be used strategically to increase student effort and…

Ozogul, Gamze; Miller, Cindy Faith; Reisslein, Martin – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2019
This article presents a large-scale evaluation study of over 3000 9-14-year-old students who participated in an engineering workshop during their school fieldtrips. Student perceptions right before and after, as well as two weeks after the workshop were captured and examined. Before the workshop, younger students and boys, generally exhibited…

El-Maaddawy, Tamer – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2017
Incorporation of student self-assessment (SSA) in engineering education offers opportunities to support and encourage learner-led-learning. This paper presents an innovative assessment paradigm that integrates formative, summative, and SSA to enhance student learning. The assessment innovation was implemented in a senior-level civil engineering…

Magnell, Marie; Geschwind, Lars; Kolmos, Anette – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2017
The purpose of this paper is to identify faculty perspectives on the integration of work-related issues in engineering education. A mixed methods approach was used to explore faculty attitudes towards work-related learning, to describe activities related to working life that have been introduced into the curriculum and to identify factors that…

Chuchalin, Alexander; Malmqvist, Johan; Tayurskaya, Marina – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2016
The paper presents the approach to complex training of managers and faculty staff for system modernisation of Russian engineering education. As a methodological basis of design and implementation of the faculty development programme, the CDIO (Conceive-Design-Implement-Operate) Approach was chosen due to compliance of its concept to the purposes…
