EducationAbstractHigher education, especially in the engineering milieu, is a complex activity. Many differenttasks need to be performed well to achieve high quality student learning. Significant learningexperiences require specific (and optimal) course design, and inculcation of relevant skills.The more common approach for course design is the ‘content-centered’ one. A list of topicsis decided (using well-established textbook/s), together with time slots and a testing scheme(number of quizzes, tests, etc). Though relatively easy, this methodology pays scant attentionto student learning outside of content knowledge. The more time and effort intensive‘learning-centered’ approach is more systematic and rewarding. Course design is based ondeciding what students can
