A SHORT NOTE BASED ON AI OVERVIEW
An AI Overview on 'educational engineering as subject area' [1] informs the following points,
Educational Engineering has emerged as a discipline that applies engineering principles and technologies to design, develop, and implement effective learning experiences, content, and systems.
With the emergence digital technology, multidisciplinary studies, STEM education and 21st century skills related to real life problem solving, concerns for sustainable development, educational engineering has the potential of creating, face-to-face learning, e-learning and distance learning materials, optimizing the use of use design technology in teaching, fostering analytical and problem-solving skills in students, and conducting research into how people learn.
Educational engineering by itself is an interdisciplinary field leveraging multimedia, digital tools, and innovative pedagogical methods to enhance knowledge transfer and improve educational outcomes across various industries, real life problems and educational levels and knowledge areas.
ABCs of Educational Engineering
A: Applied educational science that involves the systematic process of designing and developing learning materials, courses, and multimedia content that are engaging and effective for learners
B: Blending digital learning, creating or overseeing the production of e-learning courses, virtual reality simulations, and other digital educational tools for customized learning modules
C: Core goal is to enhance teachers' and students' abilities to identify, formulate, and solve complex, real-world problems by applying scientific and engineering principles.
D: Drawing on principles from educational theory and cognitive science to understand how people learn and how to apply this knowledge to create more effective learning environments.
E: Evolving innovative courses and curricula in institutions and workplaces to improve learner engagement and learning outcomes as per emergent educational demands by incorporating technological literacy and engineering concepts into school curricula from an early age to prepare students for the future.
