Payne, Corey; Crippen, Kent J. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2023
Persistence is a major issue facing students, particularly those who are both female and from underrepresented ethnic minorities (URM). A closer look at the variables affecting their commitment and capacity for continuing the pursuit of their goal allows us to better design support systems that bolster persistence. This study tests a structural…

Venkatasubramanian, Venkat – Chemical Engineering Education, 2022
The motivation, philosophy, and organization of a course on artificial intelligence in chemical engineering is presented. The purpose is to teach undergraduate and graduate students how to build AI-based models that incorporate a first principles-based understanding of our products, processes, and systems. This is achieved by combining…

Norström, Per; Hallström, Jonas – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2023
The common purpose of models is to provide simplified representations of other phenomena. Depending on type, they are suitable for communication, documentation, prognostication, problem solving, and more. Various types of models, such as drawings, mock-ups, flow charts, and mathematical formulae, are important tools in engineering work. An…

Deepti Prit Kaur; Archana Mantri – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Student perception is an essential component in education; especially in engineering courses, which involve complex spatial processes, manipulation and interpretation of graphs, diagrams, and concepts. Incorporation of special training instructions improve spatial skills of learners, assisting them to acquire enhanced conceptual knowledge. Through…

Pérez, M.; Ayerdi, V.; Arroyo, Z. – Universal Journal of Educational Research, 2018
Eight mechanical engineering students built three didactic models that show how different mechanical elements and mechanisms work in a pick-up truck. This study reviews their experience while manufacturing them, challenges faced and their learning experience. The project was directed by students entirely which posed planning, organizing,…

Stamou, Anastasios; Noutsopoulos, Constantinos; Kuhlmann, Anna; Rutschmann, Peter – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2020
We present a teaching methodology to answer the question 'How can we link teaching with research in our engineering courses?' Due to the combination of hybrid Problem Based Learning with Research Tutored/Oriented Teaching, the methodology enables the students to acquire the skills of 'problem solving', 'working in teams', 'analytic', 'written…

Nelson, Robin; Marone, Vittorio; Garcia, Stephanie A.; Yuen, Timothy T.; Bonner, Emily P.; Browning, JoAnn – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2021
Contribution: This study extends the embedded expert literature by examining a cross-college partnership between engineering and education faculty and its impact on the engineering faculty's teaching practices. Background: Previous embedded expert models focused on disciplinary expert models that required extensive educational training to prepare…

Batrouny, Nicole; Wendell, Kristen; Andrews, Chelsea; Dalvi, Tejaswini – Science and Children, 2021
The engineering design process (EDP) can be a wonderful tool to nurture creative problem-solving abilities, prepare students to tackle problems with intentional planning, and encourage learning from failures. Many lesson plans and instructional strategies are guided by the EDP (Hill Cunningham, Mott, and Hunt 2018). In this article, the authors…

Pleasants, Jacob – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2023
Recent science education reforms emphasize the goal of developing students' science and engineering practices. To foreground those practices during science instruction, teachers need conceptual tools to guide their instructional decision-making. In this conceptual paper, I propose that thinking about science and engineering activities as educative…

Felipe A. Feichas; Rodrigo D. Seabra – Informatics in Education, 2023
This research discusses the use of a gamified web platform for studying software modeling with Unified Modeling Language (UML). Although UML is constantly being improved and studied, many works show that there is difficulty in teaching and learning the subject, due to the complexity of its concepts and the students' cognitive difficulties with…

Christie-Blick, Kottie – Science and Children, 2022
In this article, the author describes an activity using physical models -- each a clear plastic box enclosing a miniature coastal town, complete with real water in the "ocean." This activity shows students a natural cause-and-effect relationship that is scientifically simple, yet even many adults don't grasp the worldwide implications:…
