AB  - This initial study investigates the various sources of knowledge that may influence first-generation and continuing-generation college students in Singapore's engineering learning. College students' learning of engineering may be influenced by their families, communities, and work and school-related acquaintances sharing knowledge and skills. The purpose of this study is to determine how, and which sources of knowledge can assist a first-generation university student in adapting to the engineering course, seeking assistance from peers and those around them, and applying skills learned in the industrial aspect. This study employs a validated survey based on the ten latent constructs: tinkering knowledge from home and work, connecting experiences, networks from family members, college friends, colleagues, and neighborhood friends, perspective taking, reading people, and mediating capability. The survey also included the constructs of engineering performance and competence beliefs. A quantitative research method was then used to analyze the data. The study's findings aim to gain a more comprehensive understanding of how engineering students learn, allowing educators to use this knowledge to improve teaching methodologies and materials to provide better learning experiences for engineering students.
