This effort resulted ina total of thirteen program outcomes, which cover the breadth of the principles included in theBOK2.In 2011 two external forces have resulted in changes to the BSCE program. The University ofArkansas is strictly enforcing the statewide ‘core curriculum’ for Arkansas institutions of highereducation. Formerly, the engineering programs at the University of Arkansas enjoyed anexception to the state core requirements by specifying humanities and social science (H&S)courses based on an interpretation of ABET EC2000 criteria. This allowed advanced-level H&Scourses in the curriculum. With the enforcement of the statewide core, all H&S courses arelimited to

Prototyping is usedby engineers to provide manufacturing and assembly data, to investigate system integrationissues and to develop analysis and testing strategies. In some cases, prototyping is also used inthe concept generation phase of the design process to assist designers to either expand or contractthe set of possible concepts. Clearly prototyping is an important part of most design processes.We define the prototyping strategy as the set of decisions that dictate what actions will be takento accomplish the development of the prototype(s). Prototyping strategies include a variety ofdifferent options. In the broadest sense, prototypes

. Oneconsequence of this is that in terms of chronology, formal education in engineering at theundergraduate level came into being before the profession was well-organized in the UnitedStates. As the just quoted phrase “mechanic arts” suggests, the term “mechanical engineer” was Page 25.537.3still somewhat uncommon in the 1860’s. Terms such as electrical engineer or chemical engineeror industrial engineer were coined during the just described fifty year period in which academicdisciplines were being created and defined.

programming assignments showed that the majority of first-yearstudents in programming courses do not meet the expectations of instructors at the end of theirfirst course in computing [2]. Engineering students are no different in this regard. One potentialreason for this discrepancy between the learning outcomes desired by instructors and studentperformance is that the instructional methods used as well as the course content do not matchwell with the learning styles of most engineering students.The idea of learning styles has been around since the early 1980’s [4] and there are manylearning style models and assessments. The most commonly used within engineering is theFelder-Silverman learning styles model [5], with its associated assessment, the Index
