This provides an opportunity to incorporate more materials from the textbook, Studying Engineering by Raymond Landis, to give the student development aspects of the first-year seminar an engineering focus.Finally, the CEAS-EXEP Cohort program and the engineering math course are relativelyinexpensive to implement, and they could be used to support the Algebra II students alongsidewith or even in place of Summer Bridge, Peer Mentor or Alumni Mentor programs.AcknowledgmentThe authors wish to acknowledge the support of the National Science Foundation in thedevelopment of the engineering mathematics course through a grant from the Course Curriculumand Laboratory
society. Why will a Practitioner find utility in this approach? Most of the engineering education practitioners use natural sciences and deductivemethods both in their research as well as in their teaching meaning that they need toobserve and present their findings in a logical and bias-free context5, 61, 14. This applies toboth the classroom as well as the laboratory. There is very little, or no space at all, forresearcher-based personal, inductive or intuitive interpretation 36, 61. Conversationalstorytelling and the SBL method become engaging only when it is storyteller-based.Meaning both the teacher and the student. It is all about interpretations and emotions13, 33.As for engineering education this means that the method is
) ● Demonstrate visualization, animations, and simulation applications related to GIS. ● Develop and demonstrate applications for GIS consulting. ● Facilitate PBL and AL in GIS curriculum ● Supplement departmental laboratories and augment current pedagogical practicesIn addition to the above mentioned factors, the researchers emphasize methods like Discovery-based Learning (DL) emphasize on intrinsic motivation, intuitive thought-process, and student-centered learning (Jian, Jing-xiang, Chang-hui, 2010). Founded on the above learning concepts,the proposed framework aids learning geospatial applications in domains like environmentalmodelling, land use planning ( Chandramouli, Huang, and Xue, 2009, Chandramouli & Huang,2012

making written communication skills part of the grading process in several laboratories. This was implemented and the results were tracked via the employer evaluations of the outcome over time. The result is shown in Figure 1. The figure shows that the employer evaluations of the student preparedness in written communications increased for several years and then leveled off. As a result, it was determined that more could be done by adding more opportunities for evaluation and feedback on student written work. Toward that end, writing was integrated into the mechanical design

Applications include high-temperature unsteady flows, such as found in gas turbine engines and for non-invasively measuring blood perfusion in the human body. He continues to work to transition research results to industrial and laboratory applications and has published well over one hundred papers in areas encompassing heat transfer, fluid flow, biomedical engineering and instrumentation. He teaches both undergraduate and graduate heat transfer courses with approximately 300 students per year. This encompasses computer usage in class and active learning

The students met in a small classroom (20 student capacity) located in thecivil engineering teaching laboratory once per week for one hour and twenty minutes. Theclassroom was equipped with four large tables capable of seating up to five students, fourcomputers, a projector, and a 3D printer. Each computer was equipped with Microsoft Office®AutoCad®, STAADPro® and PASCO®. The students were provided with weekly lecturematerial via PowerPoint presentations and embedded video tutorials. All lecture material andproject descriptions were made available to the students four to five days prior to the lecture.The

this course. With regard to this table, it is importantto note that the WPI academic schedule is based on students taking four terms in an academicyear, with a fifth (optional) summer term. Each term is seven weeks long and three full timecourses/term constitute a full (undergraduate) load. The SE ES capstone course is offered in thefirst term of the year and it is expected that students will take this course concurrent with startingtheir capstone project (MQP but could also be the IQP). A one-term course typically meets fourtimes/week and courses that have laboratory sessions (not this course) also layer in a weekly labsection. A simple calculation shows that as a result of this course/term structure, a typical classwill meet 28 times/term
