Anette Kolmos; Jette Egelund Holgaard; Henrik Worm Routhe; Maiken Winther; Lykke Bertel – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2024
Problem- and project-based learning (PBL) is often highlighted as a valuable approach for addressing the need for interdisciplinarity in engineering education. However, studies indicate that applied projects in engineering education tend to be limited to a single discipline. This article presents a new project typology which can be applied in…

Servant-Miklos, Virginie F. C.; Kolmos, Anette – Journal of Engineering Education, 2022
Background: Problem-oriented project work, also known as problem and project-based learning (PBL), is a popular educational approach in engineering education. However, the focus of the literature on the implementation of PBL has been at the course and institutional levels. Scant attention has been paid to the student experience, especially…

Jiang, Dan; Dahl, Bettina; Du, Xiangyun – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2022
This study explores how engineering students develop learner agency in an intercultural PBL (problem- and project-based learning) environment, along with the factors that affect their development. Theoretically, learner agency is framed within three interrelated dimensions: intrapersonal, behavioural, and environmental. A narrative inquiry…

Gülfem Gürses; Aysenur I?nceelli – Turkish Online Journal of Educational Technology - TOJET, 2024
ICAP is a framework that classifies learning processes based on students' explicit behaviors. The framework is developed for testing the hypothesis that interactive exercises are better than constructive exercises, and active exercises are better than the passive exercises for higher cognitive engagement and better learning outcomes. The ICAP…

Luiz Ney d'Escoffier; Dan Jiang; Aida Guerra; Andres Felipe Valderrama Pineda; Imad Abou-Hayt – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2024
Despite an emerging emphasis on the role of engineers in achieving the SDGs, there is still a lack of agreement on which competencies should be prioritised to prepare them to tackle future sustainability challenges. By formulating a theoretical framework of key sustainable competencies based on prior studies, this study investigated engineering…

Andersson, Vibeke; Clausen, Helene Balslev – Journal of Problem Based Learning in Higher Education, 2022
This paper presents how a ninth semester teaching programme created employability skills among students. During the semester, students were expected to collaborate with a company or an organization to solve a task set by the external partner. The students used their academic and analytical skills and competences as a part of working with the…

Petersen, Morten Rask – Science Education International, 2022
Inquiry-based science education (IBSE) has made a massive entry in science education classes. Students work with their competence development through inquiry. Such an approach calls for new strategies from the teachers to help students learn through inquiry. This study takes a descriptive approach to teachers' understanding and usage of such…

Nielsen, Sanne Schnell; Nielsen, Jan Alexis – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2021
As part of curriculum reforms, models and modelling (MoMo) are playing an increasingly prominent role in science education. Through a questionnaire study, this paper investigates lower secondary school teachers' (n = 246) perceived practices of, rationales behind, and possibilities for working with MoMo in the context of the revised science…

Katan, Lina; Baarts, Charlotte Andreas – Teaching in Higher Education, 2023
Based on qualitative data on students' approach to reading this paper argues that student learning be significantly improved by facilitating reading to unfold as a method of inquiry. Identifying how students currently orient and interact with texts and further what learning outcomes reading affords we develop the concept of 'Text-Centred Reading'…

Dan Jiang; Nicolaj Stegeager; Trine Lindvig Thomsen; Xiangyun Du – Research in Post-Compulsory Education, 2024
This study explores early career academics' (ECAs) professional learning in a Danish university's Professional Learning (PL) program, based on problem- and project-based learning (PBL) principles. Using a complexity theory lens, professional learning is viewed as a dynamic process involving intrapersonal, behavioral, relational, and contextual…

Pedersen, Sofie; Hobye, Mads – Education Sciences, 2020
Employing student-driven project work in a higher education setting challenges not only the way in which we understand students' learning and how we define the expected learning outcomes, it also challenges our ways of assessing students' learning. This paper will address this question specifically and illustrate with a case that highlights some…

Keiding, Tina Bering; Qvortrup, Ane – Higher Education Research and Development, 2018
During the last 20 years, we have witnessed a growing interest in research in teaching, learning and educational development in higher education (HE). The result is that "Higher Education Didactics" has established itself as a research field in its own right. This article explores Higher Education Didactics as a framework for academics'…

Chen, Juebei; Hasan, Mahmood Ahmed; Du, Xiangyun; Kolmos, Anette – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2023
Contribution: This article illustrates a theoretical model and an analytical tool for understanding the influence of diverse elements of the project-based learning (PBL) environment on engineering identity development in students. Supportive elements in three dimensions that contribute to students' identities as future engineers are identified to…

Bertel, Lykke Brogaard; Askehave, Inger; Brohus, Henrik; Geil, Olav; Kolmos, Anette; Ovesen, Nis; Stoustrup, Jakob – Advances in Engineering Education, 2021
Since its establishment in 1974, Aalborg University has aimed to deliver cutting-edge research and innovative practices in engineering education. However, increasing complexity related to rapid developments in digitalization and emerging societal challenges offer new opportunities, requirements, and expectations across disciplines for educational…

Warren, Simon – Education Sciences, 2019
This paper conducts a theoretical exploration of the inquiry-problem in problem-oriented pedagogies. Specifically, the article draws on a critical reflection of the addition of a global and internationalisation dimension to the problem-oriented project learning (PPL) pedagogic model at Roskilde University in Denmark. While the tradition of PPL has…
