Capstone is intended to provide students with an opportunity to demonstrate their readiness for professional practice. Consequently, this paper suggests a teaching and learning model as a new paradigm for capstone design projects in an effort to perpetually enhance engineering education, particularly in chemical engineering design courses. Rigorously assessing students’ knowledge of the design process is essential for understanding how to best create learning environments to facilitate the development of such knowledge. Such assessment is also quite difficult and hence there is a lack of assessment tools capable of measuring the design process knowledge of every student. The model also intends to assess whether students can explain their tasks through PBL. Besides, it provides such a structure for aligning course learning outcomes, methods of teaching including teaching strategy and learning activity, and methods for assessing students’ performance. Instead of prioritizing student outcomes and mapping them to direct metrics related to curriculum, the model is also used to highlight areas of engineering education where significant opportunities exist for improving the preparedness of our students for capstone and ultimately for professional practice. This paper also addresses an early stage of a study to seek the challenges in incorporating complex engineering problems during designing a capstone design model.\u0000 ","PeriodicalId":411547,"journal":{"name":"Asean Journal of Engineering Education","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115550959","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}

Disastrous events such as floods, earthquakes, terrorism, increase in population, cyber-attacks, pandemics, rising sea levels, economic recessions, urbanization, etc., have been increasing globally and also in Malaysia. The wellbeing of our Malaysian communities depends on a complex web of institutions, infrastructure and information. To reduce the disaster risk and impact, various efforts have to be in place to prepare and empower the community. As such, this paper is positioned at understanding this preparedness level among undergraduate engineering students in Malaysia. During emergencies, such undergraduate students should be able to rise and assist in national development from a disaster. In this study, we are focused to evaluate the engineering students in Malaysia in particular for knowledge (K), attitude (A) and readiness to practice (rP) regarding disaster preparedness. This is an exploratory study done through a questionnaire distributed among engineering undergraduate students in some selected public (one) and private universities (two) in Malaysia. Almost half of the participants understood that Malaysia is at risk of disasters and that these disasters come in many size and shapes. These participants also significantly understand the potential of risk of emergencies in Malaysia. However, the respondents indicated that they have not had real exposure or handling experience on this topic. There was a huge agreement that there is a lack of support from local officials in terms of organizational logistics and roles among local and national agencies in disaster response. This study has shown that the literature is scarce in terms of understanding the student agency for disaster preparedness. There is a need for relevant stakeholders like the Board of Engineers Malaysia to prepare engineering undergraduates for disaster management to strengthen the social fabric towards such risks.","PeriodicalId":411547,"journal":{"name":"Asean Journal of Engineering Education","volume":"116 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125249059","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}

The first author describes her experienced incorporating technology/artificial intelligence in engineering education. She discussed initial knowledge that engineering educators need before they are capable to teach a subject using artificial intelligence based on Technological, Pedagogical and Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework. However, this knowledge alone may not be translated into quality teaching. Therefore, the first author discussed Community of Inquiry (CoI) and she believes that CoI is a venue for engineering educators to simulate the knowledge.

In this conducted research, researcher has found that there was a lack of contextual knowledge among Mechanical Engineering Undergraduates and fresh graduate engineers in utilizing Three-Dimensional Computer Aided Design (3D CAD) modeling software in developing a good product design. In addressing this issue, a study has been conducted to focus on the representation of contextual knowledge elements in 3D CAD modeling applications. This article focused on presenting essential elements of contextual knowledge utilized among practicing engineers in their daily design works, in the aspect of Model Manipulation. Transcendental phenomenology approach has been utilized as the main research methodology. Four practicing engineers from engineering department of one shipbuilding company in Peninsular Malaysia were purposively selected to be studied. From the analysis, there are three most frequent emerging themes in the application of contextual knowledge in manipulating model using 3D CAD modeling: Realization, Design Intention and Normalization. These three elements play an important role in helping engineers to contextualize their design work during the stage of manipulating created model for new product development process.","PeriodicalId":411547,"journal":{"name":"Asean Journal of Engineering Education","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124499890","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}
