Abstract

Transcending-learning style is an innovative learning style that is useful in engineering education. It is different from traditional accepted-learning and discovered-learning styles, which are two main learning styles used by engineering students. This new learning style is a significant way to help students to seek, discover, and nurture the creativity and giftedness. Students combine given knowledge and their own thought to develop new knowledge and thus transcend the quality and quantity of the given knowledge. In this paper, the characteristics of transcending-learning-style in engineering education and its value in developing students’ innovative spirit and practical ability are discussed.
