在本文中,我们报告并扩展了旨在改善本科工程教育的研究问题。这些问题是基于一个为期一年的过程,包括一个三步德尔菲研究和随后的两天研讨会。德尔福研究于2015年冬季和春季进行,工程教育研究和工程学术管理的主题专家参与其中。这导致了三个写作团队的形成,每个团队负责改善本科工程教育中学生的学习,改善和多样化工程学生的途径以增加保留率,以及使用技术来提高工程学习和参与的关键领域。在2015年10月举行的为期两天的研讨会上,与会者是根据他们在三个领域中的一个或多个领域的专业知识被选中的,这样研讨会就可以探讨解决这些领域的研究优先事项。利用德尔菲研究和研讨会的结果,写作小组对研究问题进行了综合和扩展,以指导未来的工作。本文论述了第一个领域:提高学生在本科工程教育中的学习能力。在本科工程教育系统中,学生学习的全面、系统和系统的改进将需要系统中许多元素的改变。德尔菲研究和随后的研讨会将与这些众多要素相关的主要问题归纳为四个主题:(1)改变组织文化,(2)研究有效的评估实践,(3)促进采用研究型教学实践,(4)描述成功的教师发展特征。对于四个主题中的每一个,我们都提出了支持主题选择的基本原理,并提供了组织研究问题的类别。我们期望这些问题能起到催化作用
In this paper, we report and expand on research questions designed to improve undergraduate engineering education. These questions are based on a yearlong process that included a three-step Delphi study and a subsequent two-day workshop. The Delphi study, conducted during winter and spring of 2015, engaged subject matter experts from engineering education research and engineering academic administration. It resulted in the formation of three writing teams, one each for the critical areas of improving student learning in undergraduate engineering education, improving and diversifying pathways of engineering students to increase retention, and using technology to enhance learning and engagement in engineering. Participants in the two-day workshop, held in October 2015, were chosen for their expertise in one or more of the three areas, such that the workshop could explore priorities for research that would address each of these areas. Using results from the Delphi study and the workshop, the writing teams worked to synthesize and expand on the research questions to guide future work. This paper addresses the first area: improving student learning in undergraduate engineering education. Comprehensive, systemic, and systematic improvement of student learning in the undergraduate engineering education system will require change across numerous elements in the system. The Delphi study and the subsequent workshop clustered major issues related to these numerous elements into four themes: (1) change the organizational culture, (2) research effective assessment practices, (3) promote adoption of research-based teaching practices, and (4) characterize successful faculty development. For each of the four themes, we present a rationale to support selection of the theme and offer categories to organize the research questions. We expect these questions will catalyze
