RT Book, Section T1 The Role of Hands-on Learning in Electrical Engineering Education. A1 Paredes-Parrilla, Ángel K1 Enseñanza - Innovaciones K1 Ingeniería eléctrica - Estudio y enseñanza K1 Investigación activa en educación AB Hands-on learning is a key component of engineering education, enablingstudents to apply theoretical knowledge to practical scenarios. This approachpromotes a deeper understanding of complex subjects such as mathematics andscience, essential foundations for engineering. The use of real-world problems andphysical components in class allow students to develop instincts and appliedknowledge that purely theoretical instruction often cannot provide (Seman,Hausmann, & Bezerra, 2018). Additionally, hands-on experiences enhance problemsolving, innovation, and critical thinking—qualities crucial for all engineeringdisciplines.In electrical engineering, hands-on learning holds particular significance.Students often face abstract concepts and highly integrated systems that are difficultto grasp through theory alone. Practical experience with electronics, circuits, andcomponents allows students get a deeper understanding on how to apply theoreticalknowledge to real-world applications (Suárez et al., 2018). As electronics becomemore complex and miniaturized, informal tinkering opportunities have diminished,making structured hands-on experiences in educational settings even more vital forstudent learning and professional preparation.
