weekly class lectures and group assignments, students were required to choose atleast five “choice activities” to attend. Some of these choice activities occurred during thescheduled class period, such as a presentation on how to use SPSS software or how to presentdata using Excel. Other choice activities included attending a workshop on how to write a grantproposal to fund undergraduate research or attending a state-wide undergraduate researchconference. Each section of the course required certain choice activities and gave students thefreedom to select from other choice activities in order to fulfill the requirement to participate in 5activities.

contributions to the collective team effort) reflected student awareness of associatedlearning gains, e.g. • ”Although teamwork felt like the greatest scourge, it's valuable to have the experience of working with a team, particularly in the context of design and report-writing. It's a valuable lesson to learn what dynamic you fit into in a team and how you can work to improve and work more effectively in teams...having a high/low GPA doesn't always mean you're a good/poor worker and certainly doesn't say anything about your ability to work effectively on a team...peer assessment was also a fantastic idea feedback...should be mandatory to justify the marks given to each student

After a discussion of results among peers (similar to what wouldoccur in a lab group), the volunteers took the post-test. Results from the pre- and post-test werethen compared to determine the effectiveness of the lab.The following semester, the new lab was assigned to 32 students in an Engineering HydraulicsLaboratory class. All students were senior undergraduates in Civil Engineering. Hydraulics is apre-requisite to the lab class, so all students understood basic hydrologic concepts. Based onfeedback from the volunteers, more explanation and guidance was included. Ideas were alsodiscussed in class when writing the procedure to guide students in their

. Originally this was done as a wayfor students to display their work to their peers and underclassmen while gaining experience in areal world setting. The poster session also allowed an opportunity for the underclassmen to seethe exciting work done at the senior level, and to provide motivation for them to begin thinkingof their own future projects. The poster session gradually grew into a more formal presentationused for assessment when the working engineers began participating in the session.Present Structure of the Senior ProjectThis section details the three course structure of the capstone sequence at the University ofEvansville mentioned earlier.

With software and the microcontroller board, the students generated the samePWM signals that they had previously made with the function generator. This lab exposedstudents to the process of writing computer programs, downloading to hardware, running andtesting that hardware.

Oneconsensus resulting from this research is the importance of the First-Year EngineeringExperience (FYEE) 7. These FYEE programs have been proven to improve retention in a varietyof universities. Common themes are building student community, a hands on teaching style, andfaculty interaction.A popular approach to the first-year experience has been to develop a first-year engineeringcourse with a focus on activities to improve retention instead of exclusively on technical content.These course are becoming

It is typical for instructors in science, technology, engineering, andmathematics (STEM) to adopt more traditional pedagogical approaches1. Traditional approachesare often linked to a belief that students come into class “empty,” waiting to be filled with all theknowledge that the instructor can give them1. With this mindset, the role of the instructor is todisseminate as much knowledge as possible within the time allotted; the role
