Supporting collaborative learning in Engineering design
Expert Systems With Applications, 2006Co-Authors: Susan Finger, Dana Gelman, Michael Szczerban, Asim Smailagic, D.p. SiewiorekAbstract:Abstract In team-based project courses, collaborative learning is the dominant learning mode. Collaborative learning has been shown to increase individual learning through co-construction and personal reflection. Rapid adoption of web-based communication and mobile computing by students provide opportunities to take advantage of computer-supported collaboration for Engineering education. We present preliminary findings on a computer environment, the Kiva Web, that supports the activities of group collaboration for Interdisciplinary Engineering design teams. We have employed methods from human–computer interaction (HCI) to iterate on the design in the context of use. In this paper, we discuss the evolution of the Kiva Web and the implications for both student design teams and professional design teams.

Integration infrastructure
1990 IEEE International Conference on Systems Engineering, 1990Co-Authors: Nino Vidovic, D.p. SiewiorekAbstract:An integration framework project to define and implement a set of design framework toolkits for development of an environment supporting concurrent Interdisciplinary Engineering tasks is described. A graphic user interface for tools and frameworks, tool and design information management support, and distributed/parallel processing support are discussed. The core of the framework support facilities which have been implemented and utilized in functional design environments is discussed. A general integration methodology is discussed

students perception of learning facilitation during an Interdisciplinary Engineering design course a case study
19th International Conference on Engineering Education (ICEE 2015), 2015Co-Authors: Martin Jaeger, Desmond AdairAbstract:Important Engineering competencies can be developed within a Problem-Based Learning (PBL) environment. However, learning facilitation plays a major role in guiding students’ learning towards the anticipated learning outcomes. The purpose of this case study is to analyze students’ perception of learning facilitation during an Interdisciplinary Engineering design course delivered using a PBL approach. Based on criteria from a PBL inventory [1], students’ feedback on their PBL facilitator was collected. The results show that students’ project work led to overall positive learning outcomes. Also, students were found to show a strong preference to work as a multidisciplinary team as opposed to an Interdisciplinary team. From the case considered here it can be inferred that learning facilitators may have the potential to improve formative assessments (i.e. feedback) during students’ project based learning. Furthermore, the connection of students’ project work with the anticipated learning outcomes may need to be reinforced. This is to ensure that students realize they are carrying out projects so as to learn pre-defined knowledge and skills.
