Entrepreneurship education prepares people to be responsible and enterprising individuals. It helps people develop the skills, knowledge, and attitudes necessary to achieve the goals they set out for themselves. Evidence also shows that people with entrepreneurial education are more employable. In the era of globalization, education should be enhanced to achieve the vision of developed nation and highly educated people. Entrepreneurship education should also be applied especially in higher learning education to ensure students are more competitive in the workplace. This is also to ensure students are more independent and have the potential to open their own business rather than working with others. Hence, the Faculty of Electrical Engineering (FKE), Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), Malaysia has taken a smart step by providing opportunities for students in exposing the entrepreneurial education directly or indirectly. In this paper, the methods employed by the faculty in encouraging entrepreneurship education among students have been discussed. The effect of the new educational system that has been implemented has also been analyzed. It is found that this method has greatly improved the performance of the students especially in their career path.

This research aims to relate intrapersonal skills including self-awareness, perseverance, self-efficacy and goal setting to the academic performance of a college of technology year 2 students. Two questionnaires were prepared to define the reasons for low average scores on the term final exam in Physics and Chemistry course. 102 students participated in the self-efficacy and post-exam questionnaires to improve their self-awareness and metacognitive skills. A methodology was later proposed to help the failing students to recognize their intrapersonal skills' weaknesses and work towards a better academic performance.

Blended learning (BL) has been evolving as an important approach to teaching and learning in tertiary education. Much research has been conducted on BL implementation in various courses but study on its suitability for engineering education is still lacking. This paper presents student perceptions on the current implementation of BL in engineering undergraduate and postgraduate courses in a Malaysian public university. Three hundred and sixty-five (365) usable responses were received through an online questionnaire survey conducted at the end of a 14-week semester. Results show that students are more likely to access the e-materials but are less engaged in forum activities. Some students ignore online assessments which do not carry weightage towards course assessments. Overall, students agree that BL is beneficial but less amongst them find it enjoyable. Undergraduate and postgraduate students have slightly varied acceptance towards BL. The four (4) academic divisions in the faculty fair differently but most courses have been recommended by respondents for an internal faculty award. This study provides empirical data pointing towards room of improvement for BL in engineering education. Future work should examine the effectiveness of BL approach based on true attainment of student learning outcomes and graduate attributes.

Lathe turning training is an important practical teaching content for students in engineering universities. The traditional teaching way are operation demonstration and theory explanation, and the teaching efficiency and teaching quality all need to be improved. Based on mobile augmented reality(AR) technology and combined with the characteristics of lathe turning training in engineering training, a teaching assistant system of lathe turning training is developed. The development content, development process, application involved in the system and student feedback are studied. By using Unity3D development engine and HiAR augmented reality platform, the real-time display models of lathe and its internal structure models are realized. At the same time, the models can be rotated, zoomed in, and zoomed out by touch screen operation. Therefore, the traditional teaching method is changed, the visualization of teaching content is realized. The effects of contextual learning and interactive learning are achieved.

In this study, we developed a real-time comment scrolling system (RCSS) that overlays students' comments on a lecturer's personal computer by scrolling, and we practically evaluated it for half a year in university classes. The purpose of RCSS is to enhance active communication between a teacher and students, that is, the interactivity of the class. We evaluated the effectiveness of the RCSS by recording the comment logs and collecting the questionnaire results through trial operations in university classes. Results showed that most students posted positive answers: “RCSS made communication with the teacher easy,” “RCSS enhanced my motivation,” and “RCSS improved my understanding.” Conversely, 10% of the students considered the comments to be a hindrance. About 30%—40% of the students posted comments to the RCSS as needed. This study also aimed to analyze the comment logs by category. The number of utterances related to the lecture doubled before and after the RCSS introduction. We found that RCSS contributed to the realization of an interactive class.
