The article deals with the engineering and mathematics experts' perspective of engineering and mathematical understanding. A qualitative method - a comparative analysis - was chosen for the study. The main research tool was a semi-structured interview, including specific and general questions regarding the participants' perceptions. Two mathematicians and five engineers participated in the study. Most of the lecturers perceive understanding as location creation of a knowledge system with internal and external connections between its parts. The lecturers of the engineering disciplines emphasize the applicative trait of understanding the ability to use this system. The participants described different activities and feelings, which might provide for their understanding, and their pedagogical approaches in teaching for understanding. Hence, they expressed doubts about the possibility to know be certain that their students understand. |
