abstract |
Engineering design is a complex activity, relying heavily on know-how gained from
personal experience. Competitive pressures and new technology are making further demands
on the skills and experience of designers, as effective knowledge reuse in design
is seen as increasingly vital, and the work of design teams is often a collaborative
and distributed activity. University students with a thorough knowledge of the engineering
domain can be ill prepared for professional practice, with its increasing reliance
on skills and know-how as well as knowledge of theory. Our approach aims to better
prepare students for professional practice, through hands-on experience of design
reuse, participation in distributed collaboration, and the development of presentation
and documentation skills. Our case-study in the domain of modelling engineering systems,
in which the course materials themselves are evolving and distributed, has ramifications
for the publication model of educational materials, and the way students should be
prepared for working life. |
