The advent of COVID-19 at the beginning 2020 put universities worldwide into one most significant educational disruptions ever experienced.The unrelenting pandemic forced to turn technology ensure continuity education.This abruptly changed learning modes for students, with potential implications on quality education and student experience.Therefore, it became necessary study experiences sentiments toward under through lens students.Perspectives new norm can shed more light digital...
The integration of generative AI (GenAI) in higher education is transforming teaching, learning, and research, offering opportunities for innovation efficiency. However, its widespread adoption faces challenges related to ethical considerations, data privacy, intellectual property, compliance with evolving legal frameworks. Universities are cautiously adopting GenAI, focusing on maintaining academic integrity while exploring new ways integrate into assessments student learning. This article...
Many traditional engineering schools are struggling to balance the calls provide an innovative education that meet demands of graduates and their employers with constraints momentum existing curriculum. In this paper we present conceptual design behind a framework integrates discipline-specific content threads professional skills through backbone problem-based learning experiences. This creates student-centred pedagogy has been implemented across eight departments large school in...
This study analyzes the effectiveness of virtual laboratory-based distance learning as a means improving outcomes students’ cognitive abilities and practical skills in Computer Numerical Control course. utilized pre-experimental design with onegroup pretest-posttest structure. The research subjects were 31 second-year vocational students from Department Mechanical Engineering at Universitas Negeri Padang who had recently participated four sessions. instruments included pre-test, post-test,...
This article presents two strategies for integrating GenAI into assessments: the first strategy involves using Integration Rubric to guide ethical AI usage, while second focuses on Experimentation Outcome Template document lessons learned and drive continuous improvement through Monitoring & Evaluation (M&E). These provide practical implications academic institutions seeking integrate assessments, supporting reskilling of students maintaining integrity.
This paper presents a study on the impact of class attendance academic performance in second year Electronics Engineering course module with online notes and no mandatory policy. The shows that is highly correlated to performance, despite availability notes. In addition, there significant correlation between non-class contact lecturer student first university current attendance. However, pre-university performance. finds gender bias either or Lastly, this being open students following...
Accredited engineering degrees call upon students to develop a wide range of knowledge and skills. These from technical, scientific mathematical knowledge, through transferable skills such as communications, teamwork, business acumen critical analysis. Through faculty-wide curriculum development programme we have sought implement cross-department teaching framework whereby pedagogies are employed deliver against core philosophies for new way aimed at developing students' attitudes while...
ABSTRACTABSTRACTThe Engineering Education Research Network in Africa (EERN-Africa) was created to enable connections between practitioners and researchers with a shared interest African engineering education contexts. Recognising the importance of developing an voice research space, EERN-Africa community has interacted dynamic dialogic way our own teaching practices across diverse contexts, ethical commitment democratic inclusive community-building. The objective this paper is reflect on...
Educators must conduct assessments in their learning; it determines students’ weaknesses the teaching material they follow during learning. Unfortunately, implementation of assessment by educators was not optimal, and weakness that existing method only fixated on assessing students without providing feedback assessment. At same time, this essential for learning, which can help learners assess performances cannot be seen felt themselves, as well a tool to motivate students, notification or...

Pressure from industry, professional bodies and students for a reform to the curriculum delivery style of engineering education has been mounting number years. Although there have many excellent individual initiatives, developments that span whole school or faculty, encompassing disciplines departments are far rarer. This paper describes development programme across UCL faculty sciences in UK. It motivation change some approaches adopted.
This work adopts a case study approach to examine the emergence of engineering education research (EER) within UK. First, summary contextual factors influencing UK EER activity are presented. section includes information pertaining higher (HE) policy, networks, and funding. Semi structured interviews used investigate who identifies as an researcher; how they define field research; consider their audience be; that inform questions, methodologies, collaborators where disseminate work. The...
The individual student project is a significant piece of work, typically carried out in the final or penultimate year an engineering programme. Its primary aim to provide evidence student's competence applying knowledge and experience gained over entire programme practical problem solving. Each supervised by at least one academic. In many institutions, double marking involving supervisors non-supervisors used summative assessment projects. This has raised concerns about potential supervisor...
An analysis of MATLAB <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">®</sup> integration into mathematical modules at two UK universities is carried out. Both projects appear to be successful, despite the fact that institutions in question are quite different, with one being a well-established research intensive institution and other teaching-oriented gained university status 1992. Despite these differences common themes emerge from suggest...
We present a multimodal neural network model of child language acquisition at the one-word stage that is inspired by current views on brain processing which suggest information in ultimately stored common amodal set conceptual representations. Our takes into account child's perceived communicative intention and simulates both ostensive non-ostensive utterances using same unsupervised network. This contrary to some models acquisition, line with psycholinguistic stage. When trained natural...

ContextIn the last two decades, significant pedagogical advances aimed at enhancing UK's engineering education have emerged.However, there's a noted absence of an integrated approach linking policy and practice to evidence-based research in this field. Purpose or GoalThis study seeks bridge gap by exploring lived experiences perspectives leaders who been forefront pioneering reforms UK.It aims understand challenges they face identify potential solutions models that could address evolving...
This paper looks at the emergence of fifth generation wireless networks, commonly referred to by acronym 5G, from a perspective informed literature on digital divides and inequality. 5G has been designed with goal minimizing inequalities in physical access, particular differences access that arise as consequence rural-urban divide. Together Internet Things, is likely usher new era economic growth, lead general improvements quality life. However, impact socio-economic status not so clear cut....
