Most consultation hours were spent discussing strategies, providing suggestions, andgiving feedback on specific course materials. Faculty who sought out multiple follow-upmeetings were more likely to ask for in-depth feedback on their course materials andorganization. Those who did not engage in follow-up consultations tended to be more focusedon clarifying the expectations and steps needed for completion of the FIOT, rather than ondiscussions about the course itself.Consultations with faculty entirely new to either online teaching in general or to WPI werelonger in length

For most students this was the onlyrequired library session in the first year; library collaboration with other core courses was moresporadic at the time. Following this initial one-shot session, few students followed up withlibrarians later in the semester to discuss the sources or research for their design project.Late in 2016, the teaching and library team determined the current lesson plan wasn’t the mosteffective way to convey content or effectively support students’ work on their projects. While theactivity was helpful, faculty felt it became repetitive for students after the first 2-3 teams haddiscussed their assigned article and website. A one-shot session wasn’t the best use of

They, along with other learningactivities could easily be used to encourage a more active classroom.As Finite Element Analysis is taught concurrently with Machine Design II at University, studentswere learning to use ANSYS software and the FEA theory simultaneously with machine designcontent. Students stated that the FEA activities helped them understand the machine designcontent much better than just performing book problems. However, due to sequencing in the twocourses, many students also found performing the FEA analyses to be beyond their abilities.Future plans for this research include sequencing the FEA and Machine Design courses to allowbetter synergy

more in tune with a student’s costs needs. There are institutions that do paygreater attention to the student’s financial needs and take that into consideration when theyaccept the student. These institutions have more planning, support, and aid available for theirstudents [9].One of the responses to the lack of state funding is to increase tuition. For universities, this is oneof the methods in which the gap between costs and funding are covered. However, one of theconcerns with this is that when the economy is performing poorly, universities typically receivelower funding. The increase in tuition is generally concurrent with an increase in unemployment.Many of these unemployed employees enroll into higher education institutions [3]. The

Our thoughts: ● Majors will learn to write larger programs in CS 2. ● Non-majors, if they need to program in their careers, are more likely to have to write programs similar to the MSPs, like writing a small add-on function for a statistical analysis tool, for google docs, for a database query, etc. If they need to write more substantial programs, they will probably take a CS 2 class (or more). ● With the above said, we note that we intentionally ran the experiment in a more “extreme” manner, to see what effect would occur.

members. The guiding assumption is that project outcomes are a reasonableproxy measure of individual learning. That may or may not be the case, but what seems to be anunfortunate result of that approach is that students efforts become fixed on project success ratherthan learning success.Accepting that an important outcome of an engineering education is to prepare students forprofessional group work, should not compromise the quality of the education that each individualstudent receives. The assumption that project success equates to learning success iscommunicated so often to engineering students through group role-playing schemes, projectprocess charts, task assignments, and grading plans, that students themselves will undercut theirown learning

While the cost of these active learning platforms isquite low (usually less than or comparable to the price of a typical new ECE textbook), manyschools (especially Minority Serving Institutions or MSIs) find it a major challenge to ask theirstudents to purchase or even rent the existing device options.

Timemanagement, teamwork, and prioritization were explicitly cited as skills learned at work andapplied in school. It seems from this research that even minimal work experience helps studentswith their ability to plan and produce. In other words, internships have an impact on thesestudents’ ability to learn. Experience at work seems to have taught students how they focus bestand how to prioritize as well as concentrate on the work. They seemed to have learned how tolearn in order to best understand the material to suit their own particular needs.Specific

It isbelieved that the first part, in which each student attempts the problem not only via equations,but more importantly through written elaboration, is vital and that the instructor emphasize that astudent’s thought process is what will be given most weight in grading. Typically, there is greatdisparity in student preparation and ability upon arrival in EELE 201, and allowing each studenttime to digest and attempt the problem on his/her own is justified.
