The current study explores the discipline-based differences in terms of the relationship between English language proficiency and attitudes towards translanguaging in partial English Medium Instruction (EMI) programmes at a Turkish university. Quantitative data were collected from undergraduates in the Faculty of Engineering (n = 173) and the…

Background: The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) has raised significant ethical concerns, prompting higher education institutions to reconsider how they prepare future STEM professionals to navigate such concerns responsibly. Despite growing efforts to integrate AI ethics into higher education, a lack of consensus and standardized…

In the postgraduate fire safety engineering programme, students come from diverse educational backgrounds, leading to varying levels of familiarity with the fundamental principles essential for understanding fire engineering concepts. As a result, a significant amount of new knowledge must be delivered, which often increases the cognitive load on…

This study explores the integration of immersive virtual reality (IVR) in teaching carbon-neutral development, focusing on experiential learning. Utilizing a case study approach with the Hafencity project in Hamburg, Germany, the research evaluates IVR as an educational tool to deliver an immersive learning experience in carbon-neutral development…

Background: Technology-enhanced classrooms now integrate a range of educational apps designed to improve student outcomes. The effectiveness of these applications is influenced by multiple factors related to the courses and the applications themselves. A critical factor is student engagement, which involves interacting with the course content…

This study investigated the effectiveness of an instructional model that integrates project-based learning and WebQuests to enhance Chinese undergraduate engineering students' innovation abilities. The model was implemented in an engineering drawing and CAD course with 38 third-year students over one semester. A one-group repeated-measures design…

The integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in engineering education has significantly transformed the learning process, particularly in developing technical writing skills. This study investigates how specific ICT tools such as Grammarly, Turnitin, Google Docs, and Moodle enhance technical writing proficiency among…

The Filipino students demonstrated low scientific creativity as revealed by international assessments, prompting the urgent need for an effective educational approach to address this learning gap. In view of this, the present study examined the effect of integrating Engineering Design Process on STEM instruction (STEM-EDP) on students' conceptual…

Engineering learners must develop skills to design holistic solutions that take competing and complex economic, environmental, and social factors into account. Yet, these skills are not simply cognitive in nature. To develop holistic solutions, engineering learners must develop their affective attitudes so that they can gain an awareness of…

Engineers' contribution to society tends to be located in rational, technical constructs devoid of social and political interests. This paradigm presents a challenge to engineering educators tasked with undergraduate engineering curriculum content that links to society in some way. This article reports on a study undertaken by engineering…

Research on engineering practice and its relationship with engineering education is getting increased attention in the engineering education literature recently. In this article, we present a study of engineering practice in an electrical power utility company that focused specifically on the learning practices of professional engineers. Through…

Engineering education has evolved significantly in recent years, however, engineering graduates continue to encounter challenges during their transition to the workplace. There is a need to identify graduates' needs and gather their input regarding engineering education programs to enhance the preparation of engineering students for the workplace.…

In conventional laboratories, engineering students must attend in person to conduct experiments with real equipment in a physical place, where their work is mainly assessed through self-reports and attendance records. By comparison, online labs can record and analyze students' activities and behaviors automatically. Thus, this article proposes a…

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…

Background: Black engineering graduate students represent a critical and understudied population in engineering education. Gaining an understanding of the lived experiences of Black engineering graduate students while they are simultaneously weathering two pandemics, COVID-19 and systemic racism, is of paramount importance. Purpose/Hypothesis:…
