Over time, feedback from industry partners indicated that our freshman sequencewas becoming outdated and less able to meet the needs of our students and the firms who hiredthem. With this in mind, we replaced the original courses with EE-specific versions to emphasizeelectrical engineering and computing topics and to increase student motivation and engagement6.The subject matter from the original two courses was expanded into three new courses: ECE 101Exploring Electrical Engineering, ECE 102 Engineering Computation, and ECE 103 EngineeringProgramming. ECE 101 introduces incoming students to the electrical engineering field, its manyapplications in society, and

Of the 640 REU sites currently listed, only 4 include community colleges(nsf.gov).The processes and people involved in this definition also influenced what went in theengineering curriculum and what stayed out. For example, Rolston and Cox argue that by takingthe “mind out of the shop” and into the university, engineering educators throughout the 20thcentury recreated a class division with significant social justice dimensions: “The shift in focus of engineering training from the job

But I am wondering whether the story the administrator is telling alsoallows for other versions of becoming an engineer. The story doesn’t demand outright that Iconform but there is a tacit hostility in the way other points of view are unacknowledged andexcluded, like the feeling of dismissal when somebody doesn’t take the trouble to learn yourname.After telling us about our importance to the economy, the administrator then tells us how exactlywe are important: “The role of technology, and the infusion of technology in our society, has just become limitless, right?”To my mind, these comments even seem to

What the students are not accustomed to, though, is our requirement that they designvisual aids using the assertion-evidence approach.7 In this approach, the slides have a succinctsentence headline that states the main takeaway of the slide (scene). That takeaway is supportedthen by visual evidence—bulleted lists are not used. Because this approach has so few words onthe slides, the students have to fashion almost all of the sentences on the spot. In our sections of the course, we have chosen the assertion-evidence approach for threereasons. First, the approach has its roots at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory,7 whichmeans that the approach was designed with scientists and engineers in mind. Second, test resultsshow that audiences

ConclusionThis paper presents a study that compares the team effectiveness between globally distributedand locally distributed engineering teams that are built upon the engineering classes. The resultshows that the locally distributed teams significantly outperformed the globally distributed teamsin terms of the measures of utilization of resources, experimentation/creativity, and evaluation ofteam functions. Such results can be used for instructors to better prepare student’s mind in termsof how to succeed in a distributed teams as individuals and how to mingle all team memberstowards a more functional team. With respect to future works of this study, together with afollow up assessment of every
