IMPACT OF MODEL-BASED DESIGN IN ENGINEERING DESIGN EDUCATION

by Kjell Andersson
"... Project-based education in combination with problem-based learning has been very successful, and has contributed to the popularity of engineering design among students at technical universities. And when the project work addresses real industrial problems, offers insight into post-graduation working ..."
Abstract - Add to MetaCart
. In this way, students can see that many undesirable concepts and flaws can be avoided even before a prototype is manufactured. This paper focuses on the introduction of the model-based design methodology and evaluation of its impact on learning in a capstone course in the Engineering Design MSc programme

Developing the Capacity for Engineering Systems Thinking (CEST) of freshman engineering students

T3D-18 Are we teaching our students to think systematically? Systems Thinking in Engineering Education

by Gretchen Molina, Ra Medina-borja , 2006
"... Abstract – Analytical and systematic skills have been emphasized as one of the most important professional abilities for the XXI century. Hence, the need for instilling in engineering students those skills has been reinforced (e.g. ABET’s A-K required outcomes for accreditation). But how math and en ..."

and engineering courses in fact promote the acquisition of those skills is still not clear. One tool developed to assess people’s understanding of basic systems concepts is the systems thinking inventory, STI. The STI has been used with different populations of students. The results have consistently shown

Overlaying Critical Thinking to Information Systems and System Engineering Courses

by John W. Fendrich
"... This paper reports on the efforts to overlay critical thinking to the courses in computer science and computer information systems in college courses taught by the author during Summer Session II 1999, Fall Semester 1999, January Interim 2000, and into the Spring Semester 2000, Summer Session II 200 ..."

2000. Activities for doing this are discussed. These include integrating critical thinking with product-based learning (PBL), team-based learning (TBL), and student management teams (SMT). These ideas of teaching and learning are discussed with the objective of communicating with others, enabling

Design Notebooks as Indicators of Student Participation in Team Activities

by Stephen Ekwaro-osire, Peter O. Orono
"... Abstract- The motivation of this study is to enhance the traditional uses of design notebooks as teamwork assessment tools. Here, this is done by relating the individual student’s entries in the design notebook to peer evaluations. The objective of this study is to show that design notebooks are als ..."
