odd exception, engineering PhDprograms generally do not include courses on teaching and learning, so new faculty generallyteach how they were taught, an approach that has primarily focused on transmitting information[3].Educational training is emerging as a priority area for academics in a number of countries, withformal courses being offered [4]. Evidence of pedagogical education or training is being requiredfor appointment and promotion (especially to the level of full professor).In Sweden for instance 15 European Credits of higher education pedagogical coursework,including educational innovation in a course setting, is required in order to be eligible forappointment as a lektor (Associate Professor) or Professor in all Swedish Universities
learning was first fostered by an unusual elementary school education that was deeply inter- disciplinary with a substantial arts curriculum, which has informed all her subsequent thinking about the potential for education to transcend conventional models. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2019 Panel Discussion: Understanding Students’ Narratives of Grand Challenges Scholars Program as a Nexus between Liberal Arts and STEM EducationAbstractIn 2008, the National Academy of Engineering (NAE), in collaboration with leadinginternational technological scholars, produced a report with a radically new vision forengineering in the 21st century.

Although it is commonfor engineering curricula to lag behind technology in emerging fields, there has been athrust to develop course material for hydrogen technology research within the chemicalundergraduate curriculum. This paper describes these efforts.Fuel Cell OverviewA fuel cell is device that converts a fuel into electricity with heat as a byproduct. Thereare several types of fuel cells, with the most likely fuel cell to be used for transportationapplications being the proton exchange membrane fuel cell. In this device, the hydrogenfuel reacts with oxygen from the air and produces water. A single cell of a fuel cellproduces about 0.7 V of
datascience are data, technology, and people, and the three critical areas of data science are analytics,infrastructure, and data curation [2]. Data science is defined [3] as “an emerging area of workconcerned with the collection, preparation, analysis, visualization, management, and preservationof extensive collections of information [3]. Data science programs emphasize the implementationof tools, techniques, and visualization strategies, while data analytics programs emphasize casestudies and the evolution of tools [4]. Data science experts are needed in virtually every job sector, not just in technology.

maximize impact.The Business Model Canvas also sparked the creation of many new canvases. Examples ofcanvases emerging after the BMC include the Value Proposition Canvas, the Service ModelCanvas, and Lean Canvas. One interpretation proposes that a canvas is simply a framework,organized into conceptual boxes that help the user collect, organize, and understand informationcritical to their given objective. For example, the BMC is intentionally focused on developingand evaluating business models and therefore has conceptual boxes to support users as theycollect, organize, and understand information such as sources of revenue, customers, and ways todeliver value. While the BMC has proven effective at business model development, it does notcover in

The majority ofthese solutions require operational convergence, placing a heavy demand on the academiclearning process to ensure that graduates possess the skill transferability required at theworkplace. This study examines the transferability of design skills in undergraduate civilengineering students through a longitudinal study conducted at the Kerala TechnologicalUniversity. In particular, the study analyzes the impact of freshmen Design and Engineeringcourse on the transferability skills demonstrated by the same group of students in a senior-yearGroup Project course in the civil engineering program.

Integratingdigital tools such as artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and simulation software into thecurriculum could enhance students’ ability to prototype and test designs effectively.Collaborative platforms could enable broader engagement in HCD projects, supporting remote ordistributed teams and fostering global collaboration.Call to ActionThis initiative underscores the transformative potential of embedding human-centered designprinciples across engineering curricula. By aligning faculty efforts, engaging
research is avoiding the boundaries in the Design Thinking process itself and not to try restricting the process of prototyping by exploring the technical limitations. The place of our approach is at the end of the Design Thinking steps and it’s appropriate if the Design Team come to the conclusion of the possibility of the IoT architecture. The IoT field was chosen due to the complexity and encapsulating both operation technology (OT, engineering) and information technology (IT) which is one of the most difficult combinations for the technical architectures. To explain the possible architectures and our approach belowwe have highlighted the types and features of IoT projects also with IoT architectures whichcould be chosen

The aviation industry is transforming as it seekssustainable alternatives to traditional fossil fuels. Aviation accounts for approximately 2.5% ofglobal CO₂ emissions, and with increasing regulatory pressure, there is an urgent need forcleaner propulsion technologies [2].Hydrogen has emerged as a promising alternative due to its high energy content and ability toenable zero-emission flights. However, challenges associated with the constrained air transportenergy paradigm emphasize the need for alternative
help to bridge the gap betweenthe rich and poor within the digital divide.The rapid growth and popularity of the MOOCs have led experts to predict thatthe traditional higher education market will face pressure over the next severalyears, due to growing competition from MOOCs as well as internationaluniversities. Although the top educational institutions will continue to attractstudents, other institutes are likely to suffer if they do not integrate MOOCs andnew technologies in their curriculum, especially given the rapidly changinglearning preferences in the current generation of students.Since no open education standard has emerged to define the future of MOOCs,there is currently a barrage of unregulated courses on the Web that
