idea of video production relative to writing(Howe, 2009). Video has the potential to aid engineering students in conceptual change, inparticular, because: a) Engineering students are overwhelmingly “visual” learners (Felder and Brent, 2005) b) Incoming college students are typically technologically savvy and have a high expectation for use of Web 2.0 technologies (Duffy, 2008) c) Many thermodynamics concepts are abstract, but amenable to explanation through visual metaphor. Student-produced video has been shown to be an effective approach to facilitate studentlearning in several non-engineering fields (Powlik and Fortenberry, 2001; Herder et al., 2002;Schuck and Kearney, 2004; Kearney and Schuck, 2006; Schuck and Kearney

One surprising result was that at least two students who had been acceptedinto a Technology school thought that they had been accepted into engineering because the majorwas listed as Mechanical Engineering Technology. Since some of the lower level mathematicsclasses are populated by high school students, it is best to not assume anything about theaudience, even to the point of explaining the difference between an Associate degree and aBachelor’s degree.

Various scholars have emphasized thatdispositions and beliefs must be studied in order to fully understand the development ofmathematical problem-solving ability5,6. Studies have shown that many K-12 and collegestudents come to believe that mathematics is a rule-driven, linear, solitary, school-only activity,in which problems have one correct solution that should be quickly evident and where trueunderstanding requires special talent 4,7. This counterproductive view can intimidate anddiscourage students and filter them out of science, technology, engineering, and mathematical(STEM) fields2,8,9. Acknowledging this problem, mathematics

The course meets once a week for a ninety minute lecture and twicea week for a two-hour laboratory session. As our mission is to educate engineers, we purposelydesign the course to balance the presentation of practical skills with an effort to stress importantconcepts that will hold true even as technology evolves to make today’s design tools obsolete inthe future.

It is crucial that students in construction engineering programs have an opportunityto learn about the most current technologies that are used in the construction industry. BuildingInformation Modeling (BIM) is one of such technologies and has obviously been used by theconstruction industry. With BIM, the traditionally used two-dimensional (2D) drawings in theconstruction industry is replaced with a data-embedded three-dimensional (3D) model that candirectly generate lists of materials, quantity take-offs, preliminary schedules and of course the 2Ddrawings if necessary, working together with other computer software 1
