“…For example, some surveys [22,[30][31][32] have focussed more on good teaching practices and good resources and less on content. Others have restricted their surveys to particular regions [5,9,14,19,36,41] and some have focussed on particular disciplines [7,16,40] such as chemical engineering. One important set of results has looked specifically at industrial requirements [6,27,23,38,39] and how industry might support undergraduate education…”

This paper summarises the results of an international survey of academics and industrialists on what should be prioritised in the first, and often only, control course taken by engineering undergraduates. The results are made up both of quantitative data whereby respondents selected from a number of options, and also of qualitative data where respondents entered free comments. Reflections on the results and summaries of common trends are given to help readers consider how the curriculum in their own institutions might be updated and modified to meet modern requirements. At the time of writing the survey had around 500 respondents covering a good spread of nationalities, employment status and engineering disciplines.

“…My current course on model predictive control covers the nonlinear MPC approach of Lee and Ricker. 8 Recently, I performed a survey of process control practice and education 9 and found that some of the earliest papers on process control were published in Industrial and Engineering Chemistry. 10,11 Thus, I am happy to contribute this commentary article on the status of Smart Manufacturing, with a focus on the role of the "human-in-the-loop.…”

Process systems engineering has been a vibrant field for over 60 years, encompassing process design, process optimization, process control, and related topics. During the past decade, the notions of the "factory of the future", "Industry 4.0", "Smart Manufacturing", and the "Industrial Internet of Things" have become common terms, often appearing in the mainstream media. Making use of more data from increasingly cheaper and more readily available sensors, combined with modeling and optimization, provides the potential to improve manufacturing across the entire enterprise, including the supply chain and product distribution. Despite the advanced technology becoming available or perhaps because of it, the human role becomes even more important and thus receives much of the focus of this commentary article.

“…In recent years, several articles have reviewed the flipped learning literature (Bequette, 2019;Ismail, 2019;Jang & Kim, 2020;Karabulut-Ilgu et al, 2018;Lo & Hew, 2019;Lundin et al, 2018;Safapour et al, 2019;Voronina et al, 2017). Among them, Lo and Hew (2019) examined the effects of flipped education on student achievement through conducting a meta-analysis of studies occurring in engineering disciplines; Voronina et al (2017) critically evaluated and synthetized the flipped learning literature to examine the existing state of flipped education; Safapour et al (2019) recognized flipped classroom as a non-traditional learning method and explored the different benefits of flipped learning; (Lundin et al, 2018) examined knowledge contributions within this field to relate them to education technology available for higher level study; Ismail (2019) reviewed comprehensively the current state of flipped learning intertwined with education technology in an engineering department; Jang and Kim (2020) focused on quantifying the effects of flipped classrooms in higher education keeping in mind the cognitive, affective, and interpersonal outcomes.…”

Review of flipped learning in engineering education: Scientific mapping and research horizon

2021

The COVID-19 pandemic makes flipped learning more relevant to address the challenges of remote learning. Therefore, renewed attention is warranted in critically appraising the implications on which flipped learning is built. Though several studies have reviewed the flipped learning research in the past, the majority has qualitatively synthesized the flipped learning literature, thus, lacking the overall perspective provided quantitatively for appraising the existing state of affairs of flipped learning research in engineering education. This study addresses this gap by objectively mapping the conceptual, intellectual, and social structure of research development in flipped learning using a bibliometric review method. Findings reveal that flipped learning in engineering education is a relatively new field of research and in recent time it has entered into the stage of exponential growth. Findings also show the effectiveness of the flipped learning model to address the challenges of complex pedagogical applications in different fields of engineering education. This study provides a quantitative synopsis of the flipped learning literature which can be used as an anchor for future study.
