This may involve predicting, experimenting, critiquing, or making an argument from evidence. • Analyze: Students begin to develop higher order thinking. They may be asked to compare and contrast or take a concept and break it into parts to explore the relationships present. • Apply: At this level, students begin to put the information they are learning into context. Here they are able to integrate ideas across multiple situations, or utilize the content in a new way. • Understand: At this level, students demonstrate that

Major technical and professional topics introduced in the five-week program.In the technical session, important topics such as Python, microcontroller and circuit basics,machine learning, 3D modeling, PCB design, and app development were covered. These topicswere selected as they lend themselves to preparation for certain advanced coursework in thedepartment curriculum. In the professional session, networking, resume building, industry andfaculty interaction, campus resources, mock interviews were introduced in the form of guestspeakers or workshops.

At many schools the engineeringcoursework was simply an add-on to B.A. requirements, “grafted” in Reynolds’ language, withvarying degrees of interconnection.The origins of American engineering education can thus be understood as (1) motivated by therapid transcontinental expansion of transportation networks that relied on exploitative laborpractices and seizure of indigenous land; and (2) imbued to varying degrees with nationalist,military values.

Student engagement was high, and a primary contributing factor perceived by thestudents was their ability to create or choose their projects, select the sensors, and design theirexperimental set-up. In summary, we conclude that this anytime-anywhere experimentationlaboratory is a viable option for keeping remote students engaged and will continue as asignificant enhancement in student learning opportunities.Introduction: The course was developed at an academic institution that has a long

A discussion amongst department faculty members wassubsequently initiated for redesigning the course with an aim to improve the non-completionrate. This discussion led us to identify a second concern, which was that the statics knowledgeand skills of students who passed the course could not meet faculty expectations in downstreamcourses within the program. We, therefore, identified a second evaluation criterion regarding thequality of the course: the mastery level of specific knowledge and skills of students passing
