Using technologies as enablers of active learning methodologies is a recurring topic in the scientific literature. Various tools have been developed and applied in engineering education, yielding promising results. The rapid development and widespread adoption of generative artificial intelligence (AI) language models have recently sparked discussions on their use, regulation, and evaluation in the teaching and...
Working on real-world cases increases the motivation for learning, and prepares engineering students to become problem solvers. This is even more so for projects that have the potential to create visible and lasting impact, e.g. related to problems of social or environmental sustainability. Such problems are usually open ended, and require students to work together across - which can also create stress and unce...
