It gives a formal summative evaluation ofthe curricular model; and describes a comparative study being undertaken to compare thelearning gains achieved under the new curricular model with those attained by comparisongroups studying the same content but without participating in the particular curricularinnovation.Introduction Lack of practical, hands-on experience in manufacturing is one of the major competencygaps in manufacturing engineering

IntroductionThere is a large push from multiple directions to increase the number of students in the UnitedStates graduating with STEM degrees. Recent projections show that there must be a 34%increase of students graduating in STEM fields within the next decade to allow the US to remaincompetitive on the world stage. (1) There are numerous academic routes for students to enter aSTEM field. Due to the rising cost of traditional 4-year degrees, including a 40% increase intuition, room, and board between 2002

For example, research on female students’ interestin science has shown that they are motivated by projects that have personal connections or allow themto help [8]. FlowGo could support female interest as it can be used for projects to help people or animals,such as irrigation or pet water-providing systems, or artistic expression, such as fountains or water sculpture.Second, FlowGo could serve as a classroom tool that helps teachers meet new teaching standards on engi-neering subjects.

Estimating forced students to ignore their “tools” butthey were still able to provide a quality solution to the large-scale problem. The exercises castmath as a useful tool instead of an abstract language. These projects were well-received bystudents; surveys suggested that they felt like they were doing something with the math. Theseprojects were offered in classes that emphasized problem solving, but had more flexible contentand learning objectives.The next step was to identify ways to extend the underlying concept, by adding context intocontent rich foundation courses.

We all knowthe feeling of being asked, “How was your day?” and reluctantly trying to create and edit asatisfying narrative of our day for another’s entertainment and edification; our return offer ismost frequently an uninspired “fine”.When we reframe ours’ and our students’ interactions together as offers, a litany of activelearning stumbling blocks take on new clarity. An excellent example of this was shared by Dr.Raquell Holmes, who led a group of four students to write a book on cell modeling over multiplesemesters.
