The use of modelsas a form of experience to teach ideas, whether theoretical or design, can serve as a conceptualbridge between life situations which aids creativity, problem solving, decision making, andscientific research (11).The theory put forward by Kolb has been implemented in various ways, with varying degrees ofsuccess. Laboratory education has been found to benefit significantly from the application ofKolb’s cycle, including hands-on activities and pre- and post-lab tests to prepare and consolidatethe knowledge of the students (12).

explanations [9]. However, thefield of engineering has not yet established a clear idea of what “disciplinary engagement”means.Engineering at its core is about creating solutions to problems using mathematics, science, andcreativity through a design process. The engineering curriculum reflects this by containingdifferent types of courses that teach the mathematical models of natural phenomena (i.e.engineering science courses, or technical core courses), laboratory and experimental techniquesand processes (i.e. lab courses), and fundamentals of engineering design (i.e. design courses).These courses all ask students to engage disciplinarily in different ways, all in support of theoverall practice of engineering to create new solutions.
