Creative Ways of Knowing in Engineering
This book offers a platform for engineering educators who are interested in implementing a “creative ways of knowing” approach to presenting engineering concepts. The case studies in this book reveal how students learn through creative engagement that includes not only design and build activities, but also creative presentations of learning, such as composing songs, writing poems and short stories, painting and drawing, as well as designing animations and comics. Any engineering educator will find common ground with the authors, who are all experienced engineering and liberal arts professors, who have taken the step to include creative activities and outlets for students learning engineering.
Design Representation
"...there is a global network of academics, researchers and methodologists who will buy this book or want it in their institute libraries.” Prof. John Harbraken "As the field of human computer interaction grows, this book is likely to be a basic resource.” Prof. Chuck Eastman Design representation is necessary for all design activity. You will gain a guide to both theory and practical application in this discussion of representation as it occurs during the process of design. Goldschmidt and Porter give you perspectives on representational issues in design that are both informative and evocative of further inquiry. The unique interdisciplinary approach brings a new dimension to the study ...
Integrating Information Into the Engineering Design Process
Engineering design is a fundamental problem-solving model used by the discipline. Effective problem-solving requires the ability to find and incorporate quality information sources. To teach courses in this area effectively, educators need to understand the information needs of engineers and engineering students and their information gathering habits. This book provides essential guidance for engineering faculty and librarians wishing to better integrate information competencies into their curricular offerings. The treatment of the subject matter is pragmatic, accessible, and engaging. Rather than focusing on specific resources or interfaces, the book adopts a process-driven approach that ou...
Changing Fortunes
Port Melbourne was once a vibrant river delta composed of dunes, marshes and tea-tree thickets, rich in wildlife. The arrival of settlers disrupted established land use patterns, decimating the way of life of the traditional owners.A large lagoon, that helped define this emerging suburb, was progressively filled in to create new land for subdivision. The modest, wooden cottages built on it contained the hopes and dreams of ordinary people who came here from many lands.This book tells some of their stories. It features an eclectic range of women and men who either rented or owned property on or near the northern reaches of this former lagoon between the 1870s and the early 1950s. It shares their joys and sorrows, their struggles and successes, their friendships and family ties.Port Melbourne has changed dramatically in the intervening seventy years and issues like climate change and reconciliation will shape its future.
