ModulesAbstractIn modern computing and engineering programs, new course materials need to be addedregularly in a flexible manner. The concept of course modules has been suggested as oneapproach to doing this; a course module, which is a self-contained unit of curriculumsuch as a lab or teaching component, can be included into existing courses withoutrequiring substantial course or program modifications. In this paper, the authors describetheir experiences in incorporating new curricula into computer science and engineeringcurricula at their three institutions, including Rochester Institute of Technology, HowardUniversity, and SUNY at Oswego.

. Currently,Bachelor’s degrees awarded in mechanical engineering have increased by 67% between 2004 to2014 (14,182 in 2004 to 23,675 in 2014). In contrast, the number of full-time faculty onlyincreased by 23% from 2001 to 2011 at US Universities2. A longstanding and practical approachto accommodate larger number of students with decreasing faculty is to increase class sizeswhich typically favor traditional lecturing over active learning techniques. Active learning improves examination performance and reduces failure rate in meta-analyses across science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) courses whencompared to traditional lecture styles2. Active learning in large studies consists of many differenttypes of interventions including
