Welcome back to the podcast! Discussion around the need for engineers to navigate increasingly complex and uncertain challenges (e.g., climate change, digitalisation) features heavily within engineering education research and leads to questions pertaining to the abilities of engineering graduates. Despite this, little is known about the way in which engineering programmes support students in coping with such uncertainty and complexity (also referred to as resilience).In this episode we spoke to Dr. Ann-Kristin Winkens, a postdoctoral researcher in the Gender and Diversity in Engineering Research Group (GDI) at RWTH Aachen in Germany. Ann-Kristin draws upon her prior education in environmental engineering when researching areas of systems resilience and competencies needed when designing resilient systems.shownotes: https://www.sefi.be/2024/11/18/podcast-season-5-episode-3-european-engineering-educators-is-online/ Join Dr. Natalie Wint (University College London) and Dr. Neil Cooke (University of Birmingham) to learn about resilient systems.Timestamps0.00 Welcome and introduction to episode0.32 Podcast Intro0.53 Experiences in resilience from Natalie and Neil2.03 Introduction to Ann-Kristin4.28 Defining resilience6.36 The systematic literature review into how engineering education research addresses resilience9.56 The importance of systems resilience12.46 The competencies involved15.41 Are the competenices involved addressed in engineering programmes?19.45 Commonly addressed competencies21.36 Key recommendations for addressing competencies in engineering programmes22.46 How is systems resilience addressed in accreditation criteria?27.51 Embedding systems resilience in engineering programmes33.19 Course level learning outcomes and assessment of learning outcomes36.47 The future of engineering education research into resilient systems39.18 Final advice40.32 Key takeaways from Natalie and Neil Further Reading https://www.sefi.be/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/SEFI-Annual-Conference-2021-Blended-Learning-in-Engineering-Education.pdf.http://ww.cdio.org/knowledge-library/documents/vuca-and-resilience-engineering-education-%E2%80%93-lessons-learned.https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/03043797.2023.2179913.https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/03043797.2023.2171852.https://arrow.tudublin.ie/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1005&context=sefi2023_respap.Join us!
