  • Engineering Futures 2035 Engineering Education Programs, Priorities & Pedagogies
    Engineering Futures 2035 Engineering Education Programs, Priorities & Pedagogies __________________________________________________________________________________________ Caroline Crosthwaite February 2021 Executive Summary The 2019 scoping study ‘Engineering Futures 2035’ commissioned by the Australian Council of Engineering Deans (ACED) investigated drivers of change, the anticipated nature of future professional engineering work, and engineering education programs that will be needed to produce fit-for-purpose graduates. Engineers of the future will require greater abilities to find and define problems before finding solutions. Both problem definition and solution will require a deeper ability to communicate and empathise with a broader range of stakeholders than has been required in the past. A greater focus on the human dimensions of engineering work and increasing complexity is also anticipated. Further details of the anticipated changes in the nature of professional engineering work and the capabilities that will be expected of future engineering graduates are provided in Section 1. The purpose of this report is to follow up on the ACED scoping study recommendation number 2 by presenting a critique of applicable developments in engineering education, referencing national and international best practice, and emerging educational models within the higher education sector. This includes identifying exemplary engineering education programs, program models, curriculum contexts and pedagogies that have the potential to support the delivery of the T-shaped engineering graduate and the greater breadth of graduate outcomes that will be required in future. Given the large engineering student numbers at many Australian universities, scalability, and possible barriers to widespread implementation of desirable changes are of particular interest. Consultation with national and international engineering educators and scholars collected views on program architectures, curriculum and pedagogies that will be instrumental in delivering on future graduate expectations.

  • The Contribution of Qualitative Research Towards the Issues Affecting Female Undergraduate Engineering Students
    The Contribution of Qualitative Research towards the issues affecting Female Undergraduate Engineering Students Louise Duggan 29/5/2015 Department of Engineering, Letterkenny Institute of Technology, Port Rd., Letterkenny, Co. Donegal, Ireland [email protected] Abstract This article explores the use of qualitative research methods towards our understanding of the issues affecting female undergraduate engineers. As outlined in this article female engineering students face many challenges during their undergraduate studies. Qualitative research methods provide an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the issues affecting female undergraduate engineering students. Qualitative research provides an opportunity to gain rich data that simply would not be possible using quantitative methods. This article critically appraises three qualitative articles discussing the issues affecting the female undergraduate engineer and highlights the contribution that each article makes towards our overall understanding of the undergraduate female engineering experience. This article concludes that qualitative research methods provide invaluable data and has the potential to uncover new phenomenon. Keywords qualitative research, female, undergraduate, engineering Introduction Qualitative research is primarily concerned with understanding phenomena in depth and in its natural environment. Denzin and Lincoln (2005) define qualitative research as ‘a situated activity that locates the observer in the world. It consists of a set of interpretive, material practices that make the world visible’ (p 3). The very nature of this definition emphasizes the importance of the setting or the context of the phenomenon under investigation. Similarly, Hatch (2002) describes some of the recurring characteristics of qualitative research, particularly the natural environment, prolonged contact, emphasis on meaning, inductive data analysis and emergent design.

Dugger, Jr. 1937-2018 The inspiration for Standards for Technological and Engineering Literacy (STEL) was Dr. William E. Dugger, Jr., who led the Technology for All Americans Project in the 1990s, publishing Standards for Technological Literacy (STL) in 2000, and tirelessly traveling around the globe to explain and promote STL. Due to his persistence, the technological literacy standards were adopted by states, districts, provinces, classroom teachers, textbook companies, test developers, other professional associations, and many other ITEEA stakeholders. He was a friend and colleague to us all.

No. 2, July 2009, pp. 101-127 Abstract Cycles of reform have been a constant feature of engineering education. This paper suggests that these cycles are endemic because engineering begins with a particularly instrumental conception of responsible preparation. The instrumental logic of engineering repeatedly undermines educational reforms seeking to cultivate the capacities for discretionary interpretation and judgment at the root of professional practice.

  • Self-Control and Academic Performance in Engineering Nora Honken, University of Cincinnati, USA Patricia a Ralston, University of Louisville, USA Thomas R
    American Journal of Engineering Education – December 2016 Volume 7, Number 2 Self-Control And Academic Performance In Engineering Nora Honken, University of Cincinnati, USA Patricia A Ralston, University of Louisville, USA Thomas R. Tretter, University of Louisville, USA ABSTRACT Self-control has been related to positive student outcomes including academic performance of college students. Because of the critical nature of the first semester academic performance for engineering students in terms of retention and persistence in pursuing an engineering degree, this study investigated the relationship between freshmen engineering students’ scores on the Brief Self-Control Scale and first semester GPA. To identify the unique explanatory contribution of self-control beyond incoming academic performance differences, the effect of ACT Composite scores was statistically removed from the sample of three cohorts of freshmen engineering students (n=1295 total). The results showed the measure of self-control explained on average 4.2% of the residual variability in first semester GPA, after accounting for the variability explained by ACT scores. Based on results of this study, self-control predicted between 27%-42% as much of the variance in first semester GPA as did ACT scores, a much-used high stakes measure frequently used for decisions such as program admittance or mathematics course placement. Thus self-control is a nontrivial predictor of academic performance. Based on post hoc analysis, relevant self-control behaviors might manifest themselves in time and study management since there was a significant correlation between self-control scores and scores on the MSLQ time and study management measure. These results have implications for both how much of an impact positive self-control may have on freshmen engineering academic performance, while also offering potential avenues to support students in bolstering aspects of this personality trait through a focus on strengthening time and study management skills.
