- Contributions to Higher Engineering EducationPublication . Several ...; Nascimento, Maria M.; Alves, Gustavo R.; Morais, Eva V.SPEE devised an international conference to disseminate work and research done and to share views with each other. Thus, the international conferences—acronym CISPEE—arose and are dedicated to engineering education, and its goals are to become a major discussion forum for all stakeholders groups of engineering education. At the same time, CISPEE aims to gather academics, researchers, and professionals directly or indirectly linked to engineering education in order to discuss the progress in this work field and to disseminate its results and each new approach. Usually, CISPEE includes pre-conference workshops, plenary, thematic, and posters sessions. The authors are invited to present their work in the major conference topics: Engineering Ethics; Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) in Engineering Education; Continuing Engineering Education (CEE); Mathematics in Engineering Education; Tools to Develop Higher Order Thinking Skills; and Future Outlook of the Profession and Education in Engineering. In 2013, this society organized the First International Conference of the Portuguese Society for Engineering Education (CISPEE 2013) held at ISEP, Polytechnic of Porto, Porto, Portugal, and the Second International Conference of SPEE was in 2016 (CISPEE 2016) and was held at University of Trás-os-Montes and Alto Douro (UTAD) in Vila Real, Portugal. CISPEE 2016 edition brought together teachers and researchers from several engineering schools, from Portugal, and from the international community (e.g., Canada, Spain, South America, and Europe) to share good practices that may contribute to (Re)Thinking Higher Engineering Education, the issues related to critical thinking and problem-solving, communication, collaboration, creativity, and innovation in engineering education. (Re)Thinking Higher Engineering Education was and still is challenging since engineering education is the activity of teaching knowledge and principles—higher education—related to the professional practice of engineering—life and life-long learning. Therefore, beyond the examination of the economic, cultural, and social factors, which influence the education of engineers in different higher education institutions, we should question ourselves about critical thinking and problem-solving, communication, collaboration, creativity, and innovation provided to engineering students (the four C referred in the 2010 American Management Association survey [2]). Training those skills in higher education students may change the way they look at issues, organize their views, and incorporate others’ views in order to stimulate new perspectives and prevent biased views of a real situation or problem.
- Contributions to higher engineering educationPublication . Nascimento, Maria M.; Alves, Gustavo R.; Morais, Eva Virgínia Araújo; MoraisThe book focuses on teaching knowledge and principles (Higher Education) regarding professional practice of engineering (life and lifelong learning). It covers recent developments in engineering education. This book comprises the select proceedings of the conference organised by the Portuguese Society for Engineering Education. This book goes beyond the examination of the economic, culture, and social factors, which influence the education of engineers in different higher education institutions, and encompasses critical thinking and problem solving, communication, collaboration and creativity and innovation. These are essential components of engineering education. The contents of this book are useful to researchers and professionals engaged in the re-engineering of engineering education.
- Large and small scale networks of remote labs: a surveyPublication . Alves, Gustavo R.; Alves, Gustavo; Gericota, Manuel G.; Gericota, Manuel; Silva, Juarez B.; Alves, João BoscoThe advantages of networking are widely known in many areas, i.e. from business to personal areas. Another area where networks have proved their benefits is education. Taking the Higher Education level into consideration, it is easy to find many successful and fruitful examples of networks both in the long and short past. More recently, the advent and wide use of the Internet has brought an all new range of opportunities not only to the sustain and expansion of existing networks but also to the creation of new ones. We consider the boom effect the Internet had on educational networks, and the emergence of a new educational resource known as remote experimentation to explain the recent appearance of a new type of network, i.e. remote experimentation networks. After introducing the basic building blocks for this network type, we describe how small and large scale networks of remote labs have been forming actively, since the last decade, and present some illustrative examples. In the conclusion we consider new directions for these networks.
