in South AfricaAbstractAlthough it has been 16 years since South Africa’s first democratic elections were held, thelegacy of unequal educational opportunities and provision remains with us. A consequence isthat few black students are able to obtain an engineering degree in the regulation time of fouryears. The problem was exacerbated in 2009 when the first group of school leavers who wentthrough a new high school curriculum entered universities. This curriculum was designed to bemodern and skills-based, but many mathematics and science teachers, who had insufficientprofessional development and inadequate content knowledge, focused instead on drillingstudents in a restricted set of problem types. Students at universities were thus less able

This Interactive Qualifying Project (IQP), conducted insmall teams of students under faculty guidance, is intended to help students learn how the socialand cultural contexts of a problem impact its solution. Other learning outcomes are related toinformation literacy, teamwork and professionalism, and written and oral communication.12Most IQPs involve addressing open-ended problems posed by community-based agencies andorganizations.

Many of these programs have been inspired by theInternational Engineering Program (IEP) [13, 16] at the University of Rhode Island, an early,pioneering effort in engineering internationalization that still remains one of the mostcomprehensive and cohesive program models today.Despite these successes, the number of institutions offering

Knowles argues that adult learners require a differentpedagogy, curriculum design and institutional organisation. In fact, the term pedagogyitself is out of place as it refers to the science of teaching children. Androgogy is theterm which Knowles advocates should be used to refer to the science of teachingadults. Most androgogical researchers advocate according the learner a role in shapingthe purpose and process of learning. This promotes personal development and ismotivating to adult learners
