Arduino — Enabling engineering students to obtain academic success in a design-based module

Hertzog, Pierre E; Swart, Arthur J (IEEE Xplore: Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON), 2016)

A key graduate attribute for engineering students is the design and development of solutions for real-life problems. Enabling students to grasp engineering design principles often proves challenging, especially within ...
Design and development of practical instruction for freshmen engineering students in a renewable energy course

Hertzog, Pierre E; Swart, Arthur J (IEEE Xplore: Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON), 2017)

Technical competence and problem solving skills are key graduate attributes that engineering students must develop, especially within a practical laboratory. A new specialized course in renewable energy was introduced ...
Distance Learning Engineering Students Languish Under Project-Based Learning, But Thrive in Case Studies and Practical Workshops

Swart, Arthur James James (IEEE Transactions on Education, 2016)

The International Engineering Alliance lists 12 important graduate attributes that students must demonstrate during their higher educational career. One of these important graduate attributes is the ability to solve problems, ...
Graduate Attributes in an Electrical Engineering Curriculum: A Case Study

MEDA, LAWRENCE; SWART, ARTHUR JAMES (International Journal of Engineering Education, 2017)

Industry and accreditation bodies around the world require graduates to be able to demonstrate specific graduate attributes. Universities in this 21st century have responded to that call by embedding graduate attributes ...
Self-directed learning - fashionable among all first-year African engineering students?

Swart, Arthur J. (Global Journal of Engineering Education, 2018)

Self-directed learning requires students to take ownership of their own learning, to become agents in the learning process, to engage in active learning and to enjoy the satisfaction of learning. This may be achieved in a ...
Student Voices regarding Practical Instruction in a Solar Energy Course indicates Student Satisfaction

Hertzog, Pierre E; Swart, Arthur J (African Engineering Education Association Conference, CUT, FS., 2016)

Within higher education, student voices or perceptions are useful in measuring effective instruction and are important to evaluate the nature and quality of educational interventions. Student voices are often considered ...
Student Voices regarding Practical Work done in a Mechanical Engineering Laboratory reveals Satisfaction!

Olwagen, Annaléne; Swart, Arthur James (African Engineering Education Association Conference, CUT, FS, 2016)

Students can validly comment on the quality of teaching as they directly experience it and their comments are important to evaluate the nature and quality of educational interventions. The purpose of this paper is ...
