Literature shows that professional skills, especially teamwork skills, have not been included into the curriculum design and assessment in Chinese engineering programmes, and little work has been done to find the effective way to learn teamwork for engineering students in academic settings in China. This work attempts to implement successful cooperative learning practices from the West to a Personal Development Plan module with teamwork skills as one of its main teaching objectives in a joint Sino-UK degree programme in China. This paper reports the real situation of cooperative learning for Chinese engineering students. Experimental results indicate that there is no significant difference between different grouping methods on both academic and teamwork performance, although self-selected groups do not appear to be the best approach for Chinese students. No statistical correlation was observed between peer rating and the mark obtained for the task. Students can rate themselves and others, and different genders without bias. In the MBTI test, we found higher frequencies of Feeling over Thinking, and Judging over Perceiving. These students need more knowledge and training on conflict resolution skills and multi-task management skills to overcome their intrinsic weakness in cooperative learning.","PeriodicalId":120268,"journal":{"name":"2012 Frontiers in Education Conference Proceedings","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116298305","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many facets have had to be addressed in the teaching-learning system, moving from a teacher-centered model to a student-centered one, where a competence-based structure had to be facilitated, and so that the basic competences related to the integral formation of engineers should be accomplished along specific competences, making possible a professional profile and enabling the graduates to get integrated into the job market. Hence, this change has provided the opportunity to create a more active and dynamic teaching-learning model, with more personalized methods and the integration of new technologies. In the midst of this situation, a case study has been undertaken to analyze the consequences of such change in the academic results of the BEng Industrial Design Engineering degree of the School of Design Engineering ETSID (Polytechnic University of Valencia, Spain) along the first course of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) adapted program and those obtained by the corresponding pre-EHEA course at ETSID. This paper aims to become an instrument to monitor the development and effectiveness of the teaching-learning policies adopted, thus contributing to the continuous process of educational improvement at ETSID by comparing various performance and success rates.","PeriodicalId":120268,"journal":{"name":"2012 Frontiers in Education Conference Proceedings","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114834260","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This analysis used longitudinal data from 11 universities enrolling large numbers of engineering students to investigate the demographic characteristics and educational outcomes of transfer students in engineering relative to non-transfers. We find that students who transfer to four-year engineering programs are more likely to come from under-represented minority groups (URMs) and less likely to be women, although both groups are over-represented at two-year colleges. The findings confirm existing research indicating that, on average, non-transfers outperform transfer students, and non-URMs outperform URMs. But we also find that URM transfers, and especially Black transfers, are no less successful than nontransfer students - indicating that the transfer pathway is an effective bridge to a four-year degree. This is partly true for women transfers who do as well as men but are outperformed by women non-transfers. Finally, we find significant variation in outcomes between full- and part-time students, which may be driving the observed differences by transfer status. Our results should inform debates regarding the efficacy of the transfer pathway in engineering, particularly for women and URMs.","PeriodicalId":120268,"journal":{"name":"2012 Frontiers in Education Conference Proceedings","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114870620","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
