Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

L’enseignement traditionnel en génie mécanique, axé sur des cours magistraux et des exercices dirigés, limite l’engagement des étudiant(e)s et leur capacité à appliquer concrètement les concepts enseignés. De plus, l’évaluation repose souvent sur des examens basés sur la ésolution numérique de problèmes, ce qui ne reflète pas pleinement les principes de l’apprentissage par compétences. Cette étude explore l’intégration d’une approche par projet dans un cours de théorie des mécanismes, où les étudiant(e)s appliquent les notions théoriques à un problème d’ingénierie authentique. Les modifications apportées à la séquence d’enseignement et aux moyens d’évaluation sont détaillées, mettant en évidence la possibilité de repenser les évaluations traditionnelles. L’analyse des commentaires des étudiant(e)s révèle des effets positifs sur leur motivation, engagement et capacité à établir des liens entre la théorie et la pratique en ingénierie. Traditional teaching in mechanical engineering, focused on lectures and guided exercises, limits student engagement and their ability to apply concepts concretely. Moreover, assessment often relies on exams based on numerical problem-solving, which does not fully align with the principles of competency-based learning. This study explores the integration of a project-based approach in a theory of mechanisms course, where students apply theoretical concepts to an authentic engineering problem. The modifications made to the teaching sequence and assessment methods are detailed, highlighting the possibility of rethinking traditional evaluations. The analysis of student feedback reveals positive effects on their motivation, engagement, and ability to establish connections between theoretical concepts and engineering practice.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
