A cursory scan of the people invited to the workshop from industry revealsindividuals from a variety of industrial career paths. Companies providing hardware andsoftware to educational markets, designated educational specialists and liaisons fromlarge companies, and practicing engineers were all represented.1The mission of the series of workshops, as stated in the TUEE executive summary is “todevelop a new strategy for undergraduate engineering education that meets the needs ofindustry in the 21st century.

students preferred the web-basedproject to a conventional project and were more motivated to work harder and submit high-quality work. Students were also enthusiastic about receiving feedback from professionals in thefield. An additional outcome of this initiative was the significant interest from professionals inreviewing class projects.IntroductionThis study was conducted to explore whether student learning, effort, and enthusiasm can beenhanced by exposing student projects to engineering practitioners and experts outside theclassroom. Previous studies indicate that engineering students learn better when they perceivecoursework as valuable to their future career, having impact on society, or relating closely toengineering practice1,2,7.

It is anticipated that the deeper understanding of the materials gained bybeing a UTA will entice them to take more rigorous courses as they matriculate. It is possiblethat the teaching experience may influence them to pursue an academic career at either theprimary, secondary or collegiate levels.4.

For this reason, it seems thatthe value of a learning environment like Practikon can be more significant for new entrants inthe workforce than it was originally conceived to be.The observation from the interview data is also supported by the analysis of the writingassignments that the participants were given for this study. The participants were asked to writebrief texts, primarily explanations of processes or presentation of technical information for layaudiences.

Additionally, 84% of the alumnirespondents agreed that such a course should be part of the Gordon Engineering LeadershipProgram, with 2% disagreeing and 14% not sure.Some comments from the alumni in their responses capture this well. One reported: “Even witha solid foundation in engineering, physics, and chemistry, this course challenged me to learnbeyond the basic understanding. The ability to fully understand a physical phenomenon issomething I now possess that my peers in industry do not.” Another comment from one of thealumni reinforced our premise that the

The majority of those who participated inthe project felt their knowledge of atmospheric effects and solar energy was moderately butclearly expanded. As this is a vast and complicated subject, it is not expected for students tothoroughly understand all aspects of atmospheric effects after one semester. However, thestudents did expand their knowledge in a clear and comprehensive way, gaining a basicunderstanding that they can build on in the future if they so desire. The majority of the students who participated stated that they found the data analysis tobe the most challenging aspect of the study. The high number of variables taken

mathematics is the most difficult of all subjectareas. Their research suggests that students’ knowledge of functions and algebra was lacking atthe beginning of their college careers, and that many students in high school had developed only“surface learning” of mathematics. It is likely that retention of previously acquired mathematical information is critical forsubsequent development in the domain. Recent studies in cognitive psychology have shown thatstudy and testing techniques that increase retention also increase people’s ability to makeconceptual inferences about related topics14-16. In other words, techniques that increase retentionnot only solidify existing knowledge but increase people’s ability to derive new knowledge.Related to this
