Jennifer L. Chiu; James P. Bywater; Tugba Karabiyik; Alejandra Magana; Corey Schimpf; Ying Ying Seah – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2024
Despite an increasing focus on integrating engineering design in K-12 settings, relatively few studies have investigated how to support students to engage in systematic processes to optimize the designs of their solutions. Emerging learning technologies such as computational models and simulations enable rapid feedback to learners about their…

Didactic Strategies for the Understanding of the Kalman Filter in Industrial Instrumentation Systems
Flórez C., Oscar D.; Camargo L., Julián R.; Hurtado, Orlando García – Journal of Language and Linguistic Studies, 2022
This paper presents an application of the Kalman filter in signal processing in instrumentation systems when the conditions of the environment generate a large amount of interference for the acquisition of signals from measurement systems. The unwanted interferences make important use of the instrumentation system resources and do not represent…

Campbell, Throy A.; Adamuti-Trache, Maria; Bista, Krishna – Journal of International Students, 2018
International students represent a large percentage of the student population in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) programs at American colleges and universities. Although graduates of these programs are identified as having high employability, productivity, and earnings in the 21st-century job market, there is limited…

Monteiro, Fátima; Leite, Carlinda; Rocha, Cristina – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2017
The recognition of the need and importance of including ethical and civic education in engineering courses, as well as the training profile on ethical issues, relies heavily on the engineer's concept and the perception of the engineering action. These views are strongly related to the different engineer education model conceptions and its…

Newton, Sunni; Alemdar, Meltem; Hilton, Ethan; Linsey, Julie; Fu, Katherine – International Journal of STEM Education, 2018
Background: A redesigned curriculum for teaching engineering graphics was adopted in an introductory mechanical engineering course. The rollout of this curriculum was staggered, allowing for comparisons of student perceptions across the newly revised and previous instructional approaches. The new curriculum borrows from content and pedagogy…

Morelock, John R. – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2017
Studies exploring what it means to be an engineer professionally have been conducted for decades, but have boomed in recent years. This systematic literature review aims to organise extant studies on engineering identity by coding around four key variables: (a) definitions of engineering identity, (b) factors affecting engineering identity…

Chang, Yevvon Yi-Chi; Chiou, Wen-Bin – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science & Technology Education, 2017
Self-efficacy toward science learning has been shown to play a crucial role in determining students' motivation and achievements. Social cognitive theory proposes that positive and negative task outcomes affect mastery experiences from which self-efficacy develops. The current research examined whether prior level of self-efficacy would serve as a…

Dubikovsky, Sergey I. – ProQuest LLC, 2016
For many students in engineering and engineering technology programs in the US, senior capstone design courses require students to form a team, define a problem, and find a feasible technical solution to address this problem. Students must integrate the knowledge and skills acquired during their studies at the college or university level. These…

Estébanez, Raquel Pérez – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science & Technology Education, 2017
In the way of continuous improvement in teaching methods this paper explores the effects of Cooperative Learning (CL) against Traditional Learning (TL) in academic performance of students in higher education in two groups of the first course of Computer Science Degree at the university. The empirical study was conducted through an analysis of…

Dubreta, Nikša; Miloš, Damir – IAFOR Journal of Education, 2017
The article presents the findings on students' reasons for studying mechanical engineering. These reasons were covered in terms of extrinsic and intrinsic motivation additionally related to selected independent variables of the sample--students' secondary school Grade Point Average, their gender and the socio-economic status. The research was…

Baukal, Charles E.; Ausburn, Lynna J. – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2017
Continuing engineering education (CEE) is important to ensure engineers maintain proficiency over the life of their careers. However, relatively few studies have examined designing effective training for working engineers. Research has indicated that both learner instructional preferences and prior knowledge can impact the learning process, but it…

Tendhar, Chosang; Paretti, Marie C.; Jones, Brett D. – American Journal of Engineering Education, 2017
This study had three purposes and four hypotheses were tested. Three purposes: (1) To use hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) to investigate whether students' perceptions of their engineering career intentions changed over time; (2) To use HLM to test the effects of gender, engineering identification (the degree to which an individual values a…

Solnosky, Ryan; Fairchild, Joshua – Advances in Engineering Education, 2017
Many engineering faculty have limited skills and/or assessment tools to evaluate team dynamics in multidisciplinary team-based capstone courses. Rapidly deployable tools are needed here to provide proactive feedback to teams to facilitate deeper learning. Two surveys were developed based on industrial and organizational psychology theories around…

Koul, Ravinder; Lerdpornkulrat, Thanita; Poondej, Chanut – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2017
Medical doctor and engineer are highly esteemed STEM professions. This study investigates academic and motivational characteristics of a sample of high school students in Thailand who aspire to become medical doctors or engineers. We used logistic regression to compare maths performance, gender typicality, gender contentedness, and maths and…

Arbajian, Pierre – ProQuest LLC, 2019
Speech remediation by identifying those segments which compromise the quality of speech content can be performed by correctly identifying portions of a recording which can be deleted without diminishing from the overall quality of the speech, but rather improving it. Speech remediation is especially important when it is heavily disfluent as in the…
