addition, this form of debriefing should promote focused-thinking about professional goals and the professional self – a documented indicator of successin persisting ET learners.Research Grant: Phase IThe overarching design of the first project utilized an electronic portfolio as integral to thecurriculum rather than as a reflective journaling exercise, occasionally utilized in some first yearseminar sections. Integration with degree-specific courses will promote the archival andvisibility of curricular milestones – associated with clearly articulated student outcomes.Multiple student touchpoints strengthens the potential positive impact of the electronic portfolio.Project Objectives of Phase I:  Create the framework for an electronic portfolio

project, groupdiscussions, and self-assessments. The results support the general belief that a learning-centerededucational paradigm will produce greater learning and skill gains than a teaching-centeredparadigm in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) disciplines. The techniquesused and the outcomes from the course have implications for not only future curriculumdevelopment but also ABET accreditation, which requires accredited ET programs to demonstratethat their graduates develop 11 competencies. This case study analyzes four of the 11 competenciesand provides educators an active learning resource with classroom instructional materials for afirst-year engineering design course.IntroductionFor over a decade, Michael Prince’s article

The target of the study was to reveal components of course development andstudent learning that could be widely adopted and have an immediate impact on student successand faculty support.Instructional design consultants from the Center for Teaching and Learning at IUPUI offeredadditional pedagogical insight for online learning as well as provided an account of availabletechnology supported by

Development. Recognizing a trend of under-represented students choosing engineeringtechnology as a major in far greater percentage than engineering, the authors developed an onlinesurvey of engineering technology students. The overall goal of this work and later research is todiscover more about engineering technology students, the choices they make, and the things theyare considering for their future.An outline was developed to address the research questions, particularly designed to assure thatanswers to the research questions would be available for analysis. A combination of multiplechoice questions were designed to obtain demographic data, while other question types wereutilized to obtain data and open-ended responses to questions relevant to

The program'spurpose is to build mutual understanding between people of the United States and the rest of theworld [1]. The author experience as a US Fulbright Scholar at a host institution in Qatar involvedteaching, outreach and exploring partnerships with academic institutions in the host country,including education research. The teaching component involved development and delivery of acourse on Embedded Systems Design for engineering students. As a result, graduating studentsgained current skills needed by industry and were better prepared for the workforce. Theeducational strategies need in the course were designed to bring the recent technologies
