large sample size for engineering disciplines.4.2 Data collection instrumentAs part of the data collection, in addition to providing demographic data, students were askedspecific questions pertaining to their future academic aspirations and their preferences towardsdigital/tactile learning. We present the specific questions in Table 3 for EDSGN 100 and Table 4for IE 466.Table 3: EDSGN 100 Survey Questions Pertaining to Virtual/Tactile Preferences Q# Introduction to Engineering Design (EDSGN 100) 1 My knowledge about the environmental impact of a product. 2 I find it useful to be able to virtually manipulate products (using tools like Solid Works/CAD, HTML/Google

student will post the URL link in to the course home-page (Wibliography)and talk to the topic for 5 minutes followed by a brief Q&A session. The activity has a certaingrade allocation associated with it for class participation. Each student will identify the source andevent (or news), location, how it is tied to the current course and its importance. The student willalso discuss quantification as applicable to the subject matter being taught. Students are alsoexpected to interpret the news or event as they see it and give their opinion (positive or negative).As noted, this is an exercise in critical thinking and data synthesis (students can discuss otherrelated events). The instructor publishes a schedule for all students. The News of the

responsive. (Student W) Problem I have actually learnt a lot of things through this assignment. I learnt the ways to Solving solve problems, to find engineers for the interview. (Student Q) Leadership Next, it is about leadership .Actually, I never ask my team member to assign me as their leader, but it just happen indirectly .Sometimes, the responsibility that have been given indirectly is more likely to be done. They are very easy to handle and follow my instruction very well. In giving the orders, I learn not to use bossy words. This will make them become friendly
