The authors used the characteristics of the learning systems, their effectivenessbased on students’ performance, student skills developed using the learning systems, and studentfeedback as their comparison criteria. Most of the methods reviewed used computer technologyand multimedia to provide interactivity and visualization. Most of these methods were found toimprove student performance and help develop their skills. Overall, student feedback andcomments were positive and encouraging.Engineering students often face difficulties comprehending the first and second laws (Meltzer [9]),particularly the concepts of heat, work, and cyclic processes. According to Meltzer, students

. The ADALM 1000 is aUSB-powered educational device that is been used to teach Ohm’s Law and other basic electricalengineering topics. The ADALM 1000 was specifically used for several projects because of itsmultipurpose function. When combined with ALICE (A Learning Interface for CircuitExploration) software, students may create signals, measure voltages, and see real-time circuitbehaviors, which makes hands-on learning easier (Figure 5). The ADALM 1000 can be used tomeasure the currents that arise from applying various voltages across a resistor in an Ohm’s Lawexperiment. Plotting these measurements helps students better comprehend electrical resistance byallowing them to see the linear relationship between voltage and current, as stated in

Many of these studies also compared end of semester grades to see ifteaching style affected those, but there were no statistically significant results in student scoresfor courses with different teaching styles.The field of engineering has seen a significant shift in implementation of innovative coursedesigns in the last few decades. These changes are heavily supported by engineering educationresearch and faculty connections made. Through these faculty connections, discussions aboutteaching the same courses and addressing similar classroom issues spur further innovation inclassroom designs. The conversations are rarely about the course content but rather how thatinformation is delivered

Students must also use that information to make meaningful decisions about how toproceed when they are solving problems. This project shows that it is possible to improvestudents’ metacognitive monitoring and performance during problem-solving and, in particular,in their work with open and complex problems. It also demonstrates the potential for curriculafocused on engineering reasoning to promote stronger perceptions of efficacy in bothengineering and mathematics, particularly among students who may be under-prepared for andare often under-represented in engineering.AcknowledgementsThis project was funded by the
