Measuring how the degree of content knowledge determines performance outcomes in an engineering design-based simulation environment for middle school students

Bowen, B. D., DeLuca, V. W., & Franzen, M. M. S. (2015, October 25). Computers & Education.

By: B. Bowen*, V. DeLuca n & M. Franzen n

author keywords: Secondary education; Simulations; Improving classroom teaching; Interactive learning environments; Pedagogical issues
topics (OpenAlex): Online and Blended Learning; Innovative Teaching and Learning Methods; Visual and Cognitive Learning Processes
TL;DR: The results show that students with a greater content knowledge initially have significantly better performance outcomes within a virtual design simulation, but if given enough opportunities to engage in the simulation activity, students with less content knowledge perform equally well.

The Creation of Design Modules for Use in Engineering Design Education

Foster, G., Holland, M., Ferguson, S., & Deluca, W. (2012, August 12). Proceedings of the ASME International Design Engineering Technical Conferences and Computers and Information in Engineering Conference, Vol 7, pp. 23–36.

By: G. Foster n, M. Holland n, S. Ferguson n & W. Deluca n

topics (OpenAlex): Experimental Learning in Engineering; Engineering Education and Pedagogy; Engineering Education and Curriculum Development
TL;DR: The investigators hypothesize that the use of computational modules would eliminate the repetitive analysis barrier in design problems, thus allowing for design-related experiences to be included earlier in the curricula as opposed to postponing it to a capstone experience.

Work in progress: Data-rich learning environments for engineering education

DeLuca, V. W., Clark, A., Ernst, J., & Lari, N. (2011, October 1). 2011 Frontiers in Education Conference (Fie).

By: V. DeLuca n, A. Clark n, J. Ernst n & N. Lari n

Contributors: V. DeLuca n, A. Clark n, J. Ernst n & N. Lari n

topics (OpenAlex): Educational Assessment and Pedagogy; Experimental Learning in Engineering; Engineering Education and Curriculum Development
TL;DR: The GRIDC project is explained and how students in engineering and pre-service technology, engineering and design teacher education develop higher-order thinking skills is explained, to provide a base for continued research and development on using data-rich learning environments to further developHigher- order thinking skills for students across the country.
