The COVID-19 pandemic affected the normal way of Teaching-Learning and Assessment conduct in education. Teaching becomes remote and alternative assessments are prevalent. Open book examinations have always been an alternative assessment used in engineering education. The nature of the complexity of engineering problems require application of several principles, tasks and/or standards or codes of practice to solve. The first part of the webinar explains the Engineering Accreditation Council (EAC...

Higher Education Institutions across the globe have shown tremendous efforts to address Sustainable Development Goals set by the United Nations. Changes have been made regardless of its complex and broad concepts. Higher education worldwide has witnessed the urgency to integrate SDGs in curricula and the challenges faced by many change agents. The current curricula is already exhausted and packed.

Extensive research has shown that people learn best by doing things and reflecting on what they have done, not by watching and listening to someone else telling them what they are supposed to know. While a good lecture can motivate and instruct students, if lecturing is the only thing that happens in a class, much less learning takes place than would occur if more active teaching methods were mixed in. Methods for getting students actively engaged in traditional face-to-face classes have be...

Pressure has been mounting for change in engineering education for some years. However, momentum in the academy makes radical changes to pedagogy or delivery difficult in the confines of existing traditional programmes. In 2012, UCL set out to make a major change across all its engineering programmes. The aim was to increase integration between disciplines and between the elements that students study as part of their degree programmes. The result, the integrated engineering programme, was l...
