Andrade also summarizes findings related to professors’ perceptionsof international students. Professors attributed lack of participation to cultural differences,whereas the students themselves attributed it to poor language skills. She also reports thatinternational students often preferred to work independently rather than in groups.The work reviewed by Andrade2 appears to be characteristic of much of the research oninternational students. It focuses on adjustment issues and relationships to academicachievement. In engineering education, participation of international students in active

Before the first class meetingtime students are expected to complete a course blog post telling a little about themselves andwhy they chose to take the course. This practice gets them into the habit of completing thefrequent blog prompts that are used to keep students engaged with the course even though weonly meet as a group formally one each week.In the first class they get a crash course from our Small Business Development Center regardinghow to establish a business, how to write a business plan, and how to prepare the relatedfinancial documents.

effective means of meeting ABETcriteria [4]. In the traditional engineering classroom, students focus almost solely on the technicalaspects of engineering problem solving. Project-based learning can provide opportunities forstudents to be exposed to the broader context of engineering problem solving [7, 9]. Perkins [10]suggests that students learn best when they experience the “whole game” associated within acontent area. Situated in real-life examples, Perkins idealizes seven principles to engage studentsin their own learning process. These principles range from exposing students to the entire contextof a subject area, to working on so-called hard parts of the problem, getting students outside of theclassroom, and gains in peer learning from team

the troubleshooting is a“reactive” problem solving (Baker & Dugger, 1986). The design involves more innovation,where the troubleshooting involves the recognition that technology encompasses (Baker &Dugger, 1986).More recently, Design is defined by Nielsen (2003), “A Problem is basically impression of atension or a contrast between two conditions: Condition of Desires and Actual Condition”. Thesuccessful design of an item transforms a condition of “Desire” (or need) into one of “Actuality”.These definitions are supported by Jonassen (2004) when he writes “First, a problem is anunknown entity in some context”, and “Second, finding or solving for the unknown must havesome social, cultural or intellectual value”. He then adds one vital

The decision to leave the engineering major can be based on many factors including: ifa student is failing courses in their major, motivation to do well in school, external influences(peers/parents) and change in attitude about the major. There are some students who view themajor as a means to make a competitive salary upon graduation and others who have a truepassion for the study of how engineering connects the world.

Third, each student in the class completes a questionnaire about the course, itsactivities, and their experiences, including peer collaboration and contributions.
