Epistemology in Engineering Education: An Overview

Abstract: Epistemology is a branch of philosophy, a study of how a person knows and knowing. Engineering epistemology is one of the new disciplines in engineering education research. Unfortunately, little research has been done on engineering education. In this paper, epistemology is discussed in the general context then, specifically for the engineering education context. Furthermore, the engineering epistemology framework and instrument to investigate engineering epistemology among engineering educators and students h… Show more

“…Epistemology is not only relevant to learner learning but also to mathematics education curriculum design and instructional practice. In engineering education, for example, epistemology influences how educators design and deliver materials, as well as how they assess learners' understanding and mastery of engineering concepts (Ghazali, et al, 2021). Similarly, in school mathematics education, teachers' epistemological beliefs play a role in designing learning environments that support learners' mathematical development .…”

“…Velander et al (2023 tried to explore the teaching strategy of integrating dynamic visual information technology, plane geometry content, and teaching under the framework of TPACK, and they applied this strategy to practical research and conducted teaching experiments to try to improve classroom teaching efficiency. Ghazali and Rahman (2023) will integrate dynamic information technology with subject teaching through visual teaching strategies, which can help students, with the support of a large number of materials, incorporate knowledge into images. This meets the needs of students' cognition, builds a pillar of abstract thinking, and provides the basis for various abilities development, so as to cultivate students' thinking and literacy.…”
