Grethe Sandstrak; Bjorn Klefstad; Arne Styve; Kiran Raja – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2024
Teaching programming efficiently to students in the first year of computer science education is challenging. It is especially cumbersome to retain the interest of both groups, when the student group consists of novice (i.e., those who have never programmed before) and expert programmers in the same crowd. Thus, individualized teaching cannot be…

Forcael, Eric; Garces, Gonzalo; Orozco, Francisco – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2022
Contribution: To guide engineering educators on the complex path of understanding how to teach future engineers and how they can help engineering students to obtain the professional competencies required by frameworks and syllabus, based on didactic techniques that determine an orderly learning process. Background: University education is…

Iserte, Sergio; Tomas, Vicente R.; Perez, Miguel; Castillo, Maribel; Boronat, Pablo; Garcia, Luis A. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2023
Team project-based learning (TPBL) combines two learning techniques: 1) project-based learning (PBL) and 2) teamwork. This combination leverages the learning outcomes of both methods and places students in a real work situation where they must develop and solve a real project while working as a team. TPBL has been used in two advanced database…

Herrero-de Lucas, L. C.; Martinez-Rodrigo, Fernando; de Pablo, Santiago; Ramirez-Prieto, Dionisio; Rey-Boue, Alexis B. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2022
Contribution: In the research presented in this article, a procedure for determining student workload has been designed, tested, and validated. This procedure also makes it possible to analyze how different teaching variables are affected by workload and to visualize the learning environment generated in the course. Background: When the…

Kuo, Hsu-Chan; Yang, Ya-Ting Carolyn; Chen, Jung-San; Hou, Ting-Wei; Ho, Ming-Tzu – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2022
Contribution: Prior studies have shown that project-based learning (PBL) is an effective approach on engineering education. This study further identifies the impact of a design thinking (DT) integrated PBL approach on the college students' learning motivation and creativity. Background: A well-developed robot and its project often require…

Precup, Radu-Emil; Hedrea, Elena-Lorena; Roman, Raul-Cristian; Petriu, Emil M.; Szedlak-Stinean, Alexandra-Iulia; Bojan-Dragos, Claudia-Adina – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2021
This article proposes an approach based on experiments to teach optimization technique (OT) courses in the Systems Engineering curricula at undergraduate level. Artificial intelligence techniques in terms of nature-inspired optimization algorithms and neural networks are inserted in the lecture and laboratory parts of the syllabus. The experiments…

Stahl, Daniel; Sandahl, Kristian; Buffoni, Lena – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2022
Contribution: This article identifies the participation of external stakeholders as a key contributing factor for positive outcomes in project-based software engineering courses. A model for overlapping virtuous circles of lasting positive impact on both stakeholders and students from such courses is proposed. Background: Project-based courses are…
