| 實物特徵: | The National Experimental University of Táchira (UNET) in Venezuela, conducted an Interactive Group (IG) analysis among ten students majoring in Environmental, Civil, Mechanical and Industrial Engineering participated while they were completing their graduation projects (Special Degree Projects (PEG)). For purposes of the analysis, the students were asked to respond to various scripted questions to assess their experience as a member of the IG. The information analysis was qualitative and interpretive, that is, each informant response was examined, compared and interpreted in a cyclical and recursive process and were grouped together according to three categories: Participation and Learning Assessment from participating in the Interactive Group , Learning about Sustainability as an Engineering Major and the Relationship between Sustainability and Collaborative Group Work. Based on the results, it can be affirmed that the IG analysis fostered shared learning and understand of the group´s commitment as engineers to protection our natural resources. College Engineering Instructors must aim at incorporating the principles of sustainability in their lessons in order so that the next generation of engineers will be imbued with a sense of awareness and respect for conservation of the planet. As a result, SIG proved to be an opportunity to leverage teamwork and shared learning regarding this current and relevant topic. |
