Rocio Ramos-Rodriguez; Maria Calle; Garis Coronell; John E. Candelo Becerra – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2024
Contribution: Team-based learning (TBL) with a transdisciplinary (TD) approach is applied in one introductory programming course with different cohorts. The approach reduces the failure rate in the course. In addition, the approach helped students understand the application of programming to different engineering professional areas. Background:…

Leung, Jac Ka Lok; Chu, Samuel Kai Wah; Pong, Ting-Chuen; Ng, Davy Tsz Kit; Qiao, Shen – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2022
Contribution: While design project courses offer first-year students a practical introduction to engineering, a portion of class time is usually spent on lecturing foundational knowledge instead of practicing engineering design. This article presents a blended design-based learning (bDBL) approach that makes class time more efficient and explores…

Al-Abbas, Mohammad; Fawaz, Wissam; Ghajar, Raymond; Abou Rjeily, Chadi; Ouaiss, Iyad; Nakad, Zahi; Nasr, George E.; Saab, Samer S. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2020
Contribution: A modular three-credit undergraduate course that enables students to sharpen their teaming skills is introduced. The course addresses the professional skill gap between recent undergraduate students and what the work environment expects. Background: The trend of teaming in the industrial world continues to grow as the demand for…

Friess, Wilhelm A.; Goupee, Andrew J. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2020
Scholarship of Application. Background: Capstone courses constitute the culminating experience in engineering curricula. A core characteristic is the student team and project-based nature, with many team deliverables. The ensuing difficulty is to fairly assess the individual team member's contribution toward the team effort. Contribution: The…

Nolen, Susan Bobbitt; Koretsky, Milo D. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2018
Contribution: Student engagement and interest in engineering is compared between virtual and physical laboratory projects, designed to be realistic and replicate engineering practice. Reported motivation and engagement was greater in the virtual project than the physical projects. Results are interpreted in terms of the different affordances for…

Ortiz, Octavio Ortiz; Pastor Franco, Juan Ángel; Alcover Garau, Pedro María; Herrero Martín, Ruth – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2017
This paper describes a study of teaching a programming language in a C programming course by having students assemble and program a low-cost mobile robot. Writing their own programs to define the robot's behavior raised students' motivation. Working in small groups, students programmed the robots by using the control structures of structured…

Gomez-Sacristan, Angel; Sempere-Paya, Victor M.; Rodriguez-Hernandez, Miguel A. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2016
Teaching in university engineering departments is currently facing a number of challenges, especially for those involved in the most innovative and dynamic areas of information and communication technology. Learning model developments that place greater weight on laboratory activities require investment in specific equipment that is often very…

Rohde, Jacqueline; Musselman, Lisa; Benedict, Brianna; Verdin, Dina; Godwin, Allison; Kirn, Adam; Benson, Lisa; Potvin, Geoff – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2019
Contribution: This paper found that design experiences can foster engineering identity and belongingness for early career electrical and computer engineering students. Students had different interpretations of what it meant to be an engineer (identity) and their belongingness in engineering. This paper provides novel insights into how students may…

Verbic, Gregor; Keerthisinghe, Chanaka; Chapman, Archie C. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2017
Engineering education is undergoing a restructuring driven by the needs of an increasingly multidisciplinary engineering profession. At the same time, power systems are transitioning toward future smart grids that will require power engineers with skills outside of the core power engineering domain. Since including new topics in the existing…
