This study proposed a framework for Virtual Peer Learning by testing Peer Learning Model to engineering students at a university in Manila during the second semester of school year 2021-2022. Guided Peer Discussions method was applied using Virtual Think-Pair-Share and Virtual Gallery Walk as teaching strategies. Convergent-parallel mixed method…

This study evaluates the implementation of a collaborative/game-based learning strategy on final year B.Sc. students focused on reinforcing the Taylor theorem (a mathematical concept previously learned, usually forgotten over time and widely used in chemical engineering) and analyses its effect on their academic performance. To this end, the…

The purpose of the study is to explore the advantages of study groups for first-year engineering students in a challenged Global South context. The research aims to explore how the support and resources provided by the peer-led study groups can help students cope with the stressors and challenges that are often associated with the transition to…

Research on student support in the global North indicates possible benefits of life coaching interventions in improving students' persistence and well-being. There is emerging research on life coaching interventions and their potential benefits in the South African higher education context, but empirical evidence is scarce. We report results from…

This study investigates social, mathematical, and sociomathematical norms perceived by college students in an engineering mathematics course and examines the students' sense of mathematics as signals of individual merit. Data sources include a survey and one-on-one interviews with 38 students. The findings help illustrate student perceptions of…

Engineering students require nontechnical skill sets to combat the 21st century's complex engineering challenges in addition to possessing technical skills. To provide multidisciplinary experience to undergraduate engineering students and to study the formation of engineers, a research team at West Virginia University offered a multidisciplinary…

Two-stage exams, in which students first complete an exam individually and then again as a group, have been used successfully in many disciplines to promote collaboration, learning, and retention of learning. However, it is unknown what the impacts of two-stage exams would be with chemical engineering students. In this study, two-stage exams were…

Benefits of cooperative (co-op) education have been investigated, mainly by surveying students already enrolled in co-op programs. In contrast, this paper investigates prospective students' perceptions of co-op. This was done by analyzing over 33,000 applications to undergraduate engineering programs in a large North American university. Text…

Due to the structured format of most engineering courses, the number of opportunities for engineering students to view matters differently from the traditional ways is limited. Therefore, a mandatory requirement was introduced into three engineering courses for students to propose an out of the ordinary solution to certain technical problems,…

Today, Extended Reality (XR) technologies are exceedingly integrated into Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industries for collaboratively reviewing product design and development tasks. Reported study in this paper aims at integrating XR technologies in undergraduate programmes. This paper provides a descriptive analysis of…

This paper explores the implementation and effectiveness of flipped learning methodology, in an upper-division undergraduate electrical engineering course at a public research university. Given the limited research on flipped learning practices in engineering education, this study highlights the potential of flipped learning while addressing its…

The present paper is a data note related to the paper "Gender perspectives on a flipped classroom environment". The paper drew on an in-depth analysis of the interview with a single female student called Sofia and attempted to analyze different gender related interactions between students in group work situations experienced by this…

Value Stream Mapping (VSM), a lean manufacturing technique, is a process analysis approach that focuses on value and waste. This project explored the development and incorporation of a VSM-inspired tool to help dance composition students consider the value present in their choreography explicitly. The proposed Choreographic Tension Mapping (CTM)…

As more entrepreneurial experiences are integrated into engineering programs, students are faced with new challenges they need help in managing. While previous research has identified entrepreneurial activities that engineering students struggle with, the antecedents of these difficulties have not been directly investigated. Drawing on an…

The increase in digital teaching and learning methodologies creates the opportunity for new educational approaches, both in terms of pedagogical practice and in the availability of new technological tools. The flipped classroom as an active teaching methodology is one example of blended learning (b-learning), which aims to harmonize and enhance…
