, the attitudinal surveys indicate that students in theexperimental sections felt more positively toward the course compared to the control sections,although the difference between the two sections varied by quarter. The results from this studysuggest that the use of Connect and dedication of more class time to worked examples have thepotential to positively impact student performance in fluid mechanics courses.1. IntroductionDuring the past decade, increased access to high-speed internet has created numerousopportunities for instructors to experiment with novel pedagogies. There is growing evidencethat the traditional lecture instructional model, in which class time is dominated by the instructorpresenting information with minimal student

Theimpact of the student-faculty ratio and the overall class size on the learning process has beendiscussed and debated in the pedagogical literature for many years.1, 2 A significant number ofthese studies has been particularly limited to K-12 education, generating a passionate discussionon public policy and cost of education. There is relatively limited data on the impact of class sizeon undergraduate engineering education. This study investigates the influence of class size on thelearning process by evaluating student perception of learning and the achievement of learningoutcomes.

very useful for the instructors when theyillustrated related topics to the students throughout the semester.IntroductionStatics and particle dynamics is a sophomore-level course required by most engineering majorsat universities. Compared to the introductory physics classes, where the focus is on concepts, amajor element of these classes in the engineering context is on being able to bring multipleconcepts together for making qualitative judgements. It is quite challenging for many students torelate what is covered in class to how bodies actually behave, especially if they do notunderstand concepts correctly. It is then essential for instructors to know what commonmisconceptions students have and how to correct them. Clement [1] studied

, teamwork,and critical thinking, to name a few.1-3The structure and implementation of the laboratory course will necessarily have a significantimpact on the extent to which these skills are developed. In particular, the use of open-endedlaboratory activities, as opposed to narrowly defined “recipe”-style activities, seems to beparticularly critical for learning and thinking skill development, as shown by several studies inchemical engineering unit operations courses. One previous study suggests that the use of “ill-posed problems” in unit operations can improve teamwork, critical thinking, and problem-solving, and that active engagement of the students in the problem-solving process can improveretention, decision-making, and self-directed learning

Specifically, self-efficacy in traditional STEM coursework predicted interest in becoming an engineer for male butnot female students. For female students, experience in the ENGR 102 HS course was found topredict interest in becoming an engineer. This finding demonstrates the positive impact theENGR 102 HS course has on female students.1.

By design, the course relies heavily on peer-to-peer instruction through cooperativelearning, and beginning in the semester of Spring 2016, the instructor aimed to move fromcooperative groups to high performing teams using principles of team-based learning (L.

It was found, however, thatstudents, especially female students, more often reported that they found their male instructors tobe more intimidating than female instructors. It was also found that students who had reportedhaving an intimidating male instructor were less likely to seek SI. As shown in previous studies,use of SI has had a positive impact on student performance in a course. Therefore it is possiblethat the gender of a student and their instructor could impact overall student performance.Introduction and BackgroundThe study discussed in this paper sought to determine the impacts

To narrow the scope, the current study explores how engineeringundergraduates consider addressing societal challenges as a career choice.In the early 1990’s Robert Lent proposed a model of career choice called Social CognitiveCareer Theory (SCCT, see Figure 1) that provides a framework for understanding, explaining,and predicting the processes through which people develop occupational choice (Lent & Brown,2006; Lent, Brown, & Hackett, 1994).

Hence, STEM education is crucial to theultimate success of our young people.  Unfortunately, there is a shortage of both interested andadequately prepared K-12 students in STEM subjects, especially among minority youth andyoung women [2]. Data shows that among the high school seniors who took the ACT in 2013,only 23 percent expressed interest in STEM majors and fields. Only half of the students whopursue STEM major’s graduate with a STEM-related degree [3].Gaps exist in science and math achievements for students that impacts success in college,especially in engineering programs [4].
