About
Dr. Mohamed Abdelrahman is a dedicated engineering educator whose research focuses on innovative pedagogical approaches in robotics and engineering design education. His most cited work, "A Learning Module Using Engineering Design Process and Legacy Cycle for a Freshmen-level Robotic Class," has garnered 3 citations and exemplifies his commitment to transforming how novice engineers learn. In this influential paper, Abdelrahman integrates the S.T.A.R. Legacy Cycle—a challenge-based learning framework—with the engineering design process to create an engaging, problem-driven curriculum for first-year robotics students. His major contribution lies in bridging theoretical instructional design models with practical classroom implementation, offering a replicable module that fosters critical thinking, hands-on problem-solving, and iterative design skills in early-stage engineers. By tailoring these advanced pedagogical strategies to freshmen, Abdelrahman addresses a critical gap in engineering education: preparing students for real-world challenges from the outset of their academic journey. His work underscores the importance of active, experiential learning in STEM, making complex engineering concepts accessible and motivating for newcomers. As a researcher, Abdelrahman continues to shape how robotics and design are taught, ensuring that tomorrow’s engineers are not only technically proficient but also adept at navigating the creative, iterative process of engineering innovation.
