Experiential Learning in Engineering Education

Experiential Learning in Engineering Education
Journal · pp. 1-265
Abstract

Experiential Learning presents an evolving form of education that fundamentally involves “learning by doing” and having students reflect on the work. The book discusses these recent developments pertaining to the use of experiential learning in engineering education. Covering a range of innovations in experiential learning, the book explores development in laboratories, in-class and problem-based learning, project work and society-based aspects, including Indigenous elements in the curriculum. It includes case studies and examples sourced from institutions around the world. Features • Focuses on recent and practical aspects of implementing experiential learning to help improve engineering education • Offers an examination of the undergraduate experience, which leads to professional certification • Includes a chapter on lessons in other professional education areas, such as medicine and health care, business and social work A broad readership will find value in this book, including faculty who teach undergraduate engineering courses, engineering education researchers, industry partners that provide co-op experience and developers of training modules for practicing engineers. © 2023 Alan L.
