willreport the above conceptual framework in more details against its literature background.2. The Multiple-Lab-Driven Pedagogy with TCK IntegratedThere have been plenty of studies performed on lab-based curriculum. For instance, Abbas andLeseman [5] developed a laboratory-based curriculum on the theory, fabrication, andcharacterization of microelectromechanical systems, in which course assessment data is input bystudents from three semesters, based on which the effectiveness of the laboratory project isevaluated. Alexander and Smelser [6] proposed a distance laboratory teaching method thatcombined multi-media computer experiments, portable hands-on exercises, and place-boundlaboratory experiments. Zhang et al. [7] utilized graphical development

Tablet PC are reported in [11] to be usedto enhance student engagement for programming courses. Use of computer games is anotherapproach reported in [12] for teaching algorithm and programming concepts and [13] reports useof Web-Based laboratories for courses covering digital circuits, data representations, computerarchitecture, operating systems and networking to name a few.Computer programming fundamentals has always been challenging to teach for faculty, andlearning these concepts for students who are beginning in the computer science program.Traditional teaching is not effective in achieving course goal in such

Computational modeling and interdisciplinary projects for engineering technology students The advances in nanotechnology, tissue engineering, and robotics has precipitated the need forengineering technology students who can understand and contribute to simulation and development ofcomputer models for complex command, communications, biological and control systems.The engineering faculty at our university is developing multidisciplinary projects/classes, which includehands-on application-oriented laboratory exercises, which can actively engage students. These laboratoryprojects will also be helpful to students who will take capstone senior project coursework.This paper will discuss the new, interesting multidisciplinary projects
