Recent interest in improving pedagogical approaches in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields has stimulated research at many universities.
GDEC used pedagogical strategies for supporting engineering learning (e.g., scripting) in conjunction with the cloud-based collaboration tool to help in the development of collaborative skills and positively influence learning outcomes.
The University of Technology Sydney (UTS), in collaboration with CSIRO has created the NanohouseTM Initiative, a concept that serves as the conceptual framework for various pedagogical, scientific, architectural and engineering activities at the University.
Several of her currently funded NSF grant deal areas of assessment studies of classroom material science pedagogical implementations; case studies in various engineering disciplines and; engineering faculty barriers to adopt evidence-based (or non-traditional) teaching methods.
Pedagogical and psychological aspects of engineering students have been viewed on the basis of their age and certain level of experience.
The National Research Council (2012) reports that while there are many common pedagogical approaches across science and engineering, there are also "important differences that reflect differences in their parent disciplines and their histories of development" (p. 3).
The design team includes perspectives from multiple disciplines that include science, engineering, mathematics, historians, and pedagogical experts.
This paper deals with the design and the implementation of the first phase of the Experiential Engineering Project (EEP) and with the assessment of its impact as a pedagogical strategy for training in industrial engineering.
A pedagogical framework is presented that can assist engineering educators in developing learning modules in support of this goal.
Case-study teaching, a popular pedagogical approach in the disciplines of business, engineering and medicine, is a way of engaging the student with authentic workplace problems; it thus follows a problem-based pedagogy.
The goal of the project described in the paper is to create new, interactive tools and pedagogical methodologies in order to initiate the engineering students to the "cooperative" work and to teach them the necessary means (tools, methodologies).
