Abstract

The purpose of this project is to design, develop, and validate a case-based e-learning module that promotes the development of engineering students’ epistemic beliefs (Perry, 1970) and thus enhances their problem-solving abilities to deal with realworld engineering problems. The second-year engineering students had vicariously experienced real-world problems through a case-based e-learning module, which consists of four major phases: exploring situations, constructing reality, creating solutions, and reflecting on the product and the process.
