Developing Leadership Values in Learners of Electrical Engineering
This material presents my work as a programme leader in vocational education, focusing on the research question: "Is there value in teaching leadership qualities to learners in a tertiary context?" The research explores an underlying premise of my practice that teaching leadership values helps …

Differences in Educational Goals Within the Field of Electrical Engineering
… more important now than ever. In order to design electrical engineering programs that train engineers to be successful and excel in the workforce, their major employers and developers of engineering curricula must work together to ensure that societal and individual needs are being met. However, …

SOFTWIRE : an interactive, computer-based system for enhancing learning in electrical engineering using simulation
… to explore a method of enhancing learning in the Electrical Engineering curriculum, which effectively exploits the computer. The different modes used in computer-based learning are discussed and compared, and the conclusion reached that simulation provides the best basis for a learning enhancement …

Predicting Student Performance in Entry Level Electrical Engineering Technology and Mathematics Courses Using Precollege Data
The major problems of this study were to identify the relationships between precollege variables and performance in entry level courses in technical curricula through the formation and testing of equations which predict final course grades, and to compare two algorithms for selecting subsets of …

Using the COMET diagnostic model to enhance occupational competence of electrical engineering students in TVET colleges.
… rates. The COMET (Competence Measurement in Electrical Technology), three-dimensional Diagnostic Model showed potential in earlier studies to both measure and develop occupational competence in TVET, but to date there has been no study to specifically explore the didactic application of the …

Conceptual understanding of threshold concepts of electrical phenomena: Mental models of senior undergraduates in electrical engineering
… Most students who pursue university degrees in engineering trust that their education is designed to provide them with this knowledge. But does it? In electrical engineering (EE), conceptual understanding of electrical phenomena has rarely been addressed. Even though the presumed goal of …

An analysis of the theory- and employment-demands on mathematics for electrical engineering programmes at technikons
… members of technikons as well as members of the electrical-engineering industry. The hypothesis of this study is that the present mathematics curricula for electrical-engineering at technikons are not fully compatible with the demands emanating from the theoretical and the industrial-training …

A qualitative study of problematic reasonings of undergraduate electrical engineering students in Continuous Time Signals and Systems courses
… Systems is a core course in the undergraduate electrical engineering curriculum. The topics covered in this course are difficult to learn conceptually because a significant number of topics are abstract, disconnected from a student's daily life, and make extensive use of mathematical modeling …

A Social Realist Case Study of Knowledge and Pedagogy in the First Two Years of Electrical Engineering Education
Sound understanding in electrical engineering requires developing a complex set of linked abstract knowledge about invisible phenomena which are difficult to teach and learn. Often students do not gain abstract knowledge but rote-learn isolated facts instead; and rather than develop the capability …

The analysis of complex wave forms taken from different alternators and transformers in the electrical engineering laboratory at Virginia Polytechnic Institute
Since the work that the writer was engaged in was primarily concerned with finding the equations of the different wave forms and not in the results of what caused distortions in the wave suggestions may be offered in the way of advice to following investigators by the following remarks: (1) Observe …
