Abstract
Although “Prediction is difficult, especially about the future” according to Niels Bohr, nevertheless, this paper attempts a look into the future by presenting the personal views of the author regarding Teaching & Learning activities in Engineering Education. This is done by seeking answers to such fundamental questions as ‘What is the nature of Education?’, ‘What are Universities for?’, ‘How do students learn?’ and ‘How can we use technologies to enhance the Teaching & Learning experience for our students? Recent examples of innovative Teaching & Learning activities from the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Sheffield are used to illustrate how academics there ‘are moving with the times’.
