  • Slide 7
  • 7 2. Engineering Education current situations Students are not well prepared 6 million & 100% Multiple intelligences (Gardner, 1983) Teachers are not well prepared Teacher-centered vs. Student-centered
  • Slide 8
  • 8 Teacher-centered Learning Rote-learning Care only about grades Passive & No passion
  • Slide 9
  • 9 Blooms Taxonomy Remember Understand Apply Analyze Evaluate Create
  • Slide 10
  • 10 Student-centered Learning Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn. Benjamin Franklin
  • Slide 11
  • 11 Student-centered approach Active learning Peer-instruction Inquiry-based learning Problem-based learning Cooperative learning
  • Slide 12
  • 12 Problem-based learning encourages students to pose questions, propose hypotheses, make predictions, use tools to gather and analyze data, generate inferences in light of empirical evidence, construct arguments, communicate their findings, use a broad array of reasoning strategies that involve critical, creative, causal, and logical thinking
  • Slide 13
  • 13 Cooperative learning Theory based Social cognitive theory, Social constructivist theory, Social interdependence theory Evidence supported Model guided
  • Slide 14
  • 14 Cooperative learning Evidence supported higher achievement greater long-term retention of what is learned more frequent use of higher-level reasoning (critical thinking) and meta-cognitive thought more accurate and creative problem solving more willingness to take on difficult tasks and persist (despite difficulties) in working toward goal accomplishment more intrinsic motivation transfer of learning from one situation to another greater time on task
  • Slide 15
  • 15 Cooperative learning Model guided (Johnson, Johnson & Smith)
  • Slide 16
  • 16 Education Research?? Less competition Less resources needed Fertile ground
