-sigma. This has hadrepercussion in the academic curriculum as well. More manufacturing engineering andmanufacturing technology programs alike have courses in lean manufacturing and six-sigmaquality management as a result. However, the actual impact of these efforts can be realized onlywhen an academic unit’s “product” (students) can deliver it at the workplace. In order to build apositive student learning in the 21st century world, one needs to follow different and moreinnovative and active learning approach in the classroom. This paper presents a conceptualframework of student learning lifecycle during a semester long course. The paper uses twodistinct case examples to demonstrate the proposed framework for enhancing the studentlearning in a

The implications of this knowledge-generation approach todiscipline exploration are then applied to Software Engineering as an engineering discipline.This application aims at distinguishing Software Engineering from the scientific and engineeringaspects of Computer Science.A cursory introduction to the literature of the philosophy of engineering reveals competingviewpoints on what distinguishes scientific from engineering knowledge, including engineering(and technology) as applied science (2 p. 42) and the influence of knowledge generation as ameans to distinguish between ‘scientific’ and ‘engineering’ knowledge. When seen through thelens of a pragmatic theory of knowledge, the crucial characteristics of scientific
