Abstract:
There is a gap between industry needs and engineering graduates’ competences that since the past two decades has been under discussion. Engineering graduates are perceived as “too theoretical” by the industry and face difficulties when adapting to the practical working context. This gap is being mostly tackled by project-based courses. Furthermore, the expected competences of the future engineers go beyond the purely technical skills. Competences like creativity, innovativeness, business skills, sense of responsibility, problem-based thinking, collaboration, ability to communicate and effectiv

Abstract:
The topic of heat transfer is traditionally taught as an upper level, lecture-style course to mechanical engineering students. Such courses do not provide students with ways to see and feel the important heat transfer concepts at hand. As a way to overcome this, novel, hands-on workshops have been designed and implemented into a heat transfer class taught to junior level mechanical engineering students. Two types of experimental workshops were created and used in two different years of a section of a heat transfer class. In the first year, twelve workshops were designed which included live dem

Abstract:
The engineering education has changed and evolved over decades in harmonywith societies challenges. Today, sustainable development is of great importanceand one way of equipping future engineers with the competencies to tackle these challenges is through Challenge Driven Education (CDE). CDE is a relatively new educational concept which brings together universities andexternal stakeholders to jointly foster the engineers of tomorrow. The research focuses on the challenge owner’s perspective, which is a sub-category of external stakeholder. The challenge owner could be a company or organisation

Abstract:
A design-based research approach to an educational challenge: Developing independent learners using a blended learning environment. The transition from school to higher education in the UK has been highlighted as becoming challenging for a number of students. The contrast between the learning experience of students at school and in higher education has been seen as problematic, with supportive small group experiences at school and commonly large impersonal teaching structures at university. Upon entry to higher education, many students are perceived to have a ‘skills deficit’ in those areas im

Abstract:
This thesis is structured in two applied researches. One, focused on how to embed the transversal competence of sustainability to undergraduate studies at the UdG. The other promotes an innovation in teacher education, by applying the methodology of Challenge-Based Learning (CBL). Both share that they use co-creation processes, involving internal and external agents of the university community. With these studies, we seek to demonstrate that innovations and researches become responsibles, to higher education, when we incorporate co-creation processes involving stakeholders from the university

Abstract:
One useful strategy to support students with intellectual and developmental disability (IDD) to promote appropriate behaviors across environments and gain the social skills is using social stories. In addition, experts have recognized iPads and apps were associated with less challenging behavior and more academic engagement over traditional materials (Lee, Lang, Davenport, Moore, Rispoli, Meer, & Chung, 2013). The focus this study was to examine the effectiveness of an intervention package featuring social stories delivered via an iPad and simultaneous prompting on frequency of targeted challe
