, but technicalcourses should also present a discussion of how that technical content aligns with and integrates into theengineering design process. Additionally, the students should be given opportunities to practiceintegrating the design considerations of each area into a design context. This might be done through ahands-on project or through reflective design portfolios. 14Conclusions/Future WorkThroughout the conceptual design process, many constructs of coordination of knowledge about adesign are apparent. First, the tasks set forth by textbooks of aerospace design align with a high-leveltask and subtask structure. It’s also noted that each task has a goal or expected outcome. For

They must also work within a framework of sustainable development, be creative and innovative, understand business and organizations, and be prepared to live and work as global citizens. That is a tall order…”Engineering education has progressed with the introduction of different active learningpedagogies over the years, including project-based learning, problem-based learning, service-learning, and peer-led team learning. However, students are still mostly trained to solve welldefined problems which do not reflect the complexities of real-world problems.10 We proposethat translational research can

, adjustments were made to the questionnaires and later to the learningoutcomes to reflect the content of each camp theme..The structure and basic nature of the questions used in our questionnaires were initially based onour learning outcomes, feedback offered by our experts, and the research literature. Prior to the2013 camp, initial (pre-) and concluding (post-) questionnaires were piloted among a focus groupof five youths representing the age range of camp participants. The two goals of this focus groupwere to ensure that questions were not too easy or too challenging for the intended age group andto determine whether the students understood what was being asked of them. The focus grouprevealed valuable information regarding survey instructions

Ideas or phenomena were first identified and flagged to generate alisting of internally consistent, discrete categories (open coding), followed by fractured andreassembled (axial coding) of categories by making connections between categories andsubcategories to reflect emerging themes and patterns. Categories were integrated to formgrounded theory (selective coding), to clarify concepts and to allow for interview interpretations,conclusions and taxonomy development. Frequency distribution of the coded and categorizeddata were obtained using a computerized qualitative analytical tool, Hyperrresearch® version3.5.2.

Since early 2015, there has been an initiative to reevaluate the Strategic Plan with theconsensus that overall the goals and mission are well described in the 2006 plan. The updatedStrategic Plan for the College was completed in summer 2015. Compared to the 2006 plan, therewere modest adaptations to the overall University and College mission and vision. These visionand mission statements are the fundamental building blocks for the undergraduate degreeprograms which then become the most tangible expression of the University’s mission for thestudents. The Curriculum in each program of the College of Engineering is continuouslyadapted to reflect these high level goals. The student

There were similar increases of 14-15 points in the medianconfidence of students in the A1, B1, and C1 courses. The smallest increase of ~3 points wasfound in the Introduction to Environmental Engineering course (A2); sustainability was only asingle lecture in that course. It is evident that 13-36% of the individual students in each coursedecreased in their average confidence in sustainability knowledge (Table 8).

to the learning and teaching styles in engineering education by Felder and Silverman.9Active learning encourages not only high levels of physical engagement with course content(such as physically experimenting with concepts) but also reflection on the results of thatactivity. Teaching styles that are correlated with prevailing learning styles lead to higher successand greater fulfillment. Engineers are more likely to be active learners and engaging learningenvironments have a significant impact on this segment of learners. The role of active learningthrough the use of cooperative learning environments and project-based exercises has also beenendorsed by other researchers as means to improve design education.10 It is our thesis that
