as other counties have been able to compete with the US with respect toconsumer-product development and manufacturing. This can be seen in countries that canproduce the same products at higher quality and lower cost. In order for the U.S. to remaincompetitive at a global scale, it is necessary to change how engineering education is organizedwith respect to the knowledge and skills in manufacturing technology and efficiency.Rural communities have borne the brunt of this with the US lagging in manufacturingcompetitiveness. Our model, we believe, will be of benefit to rural communities.

language typically involves acquisition of new vocabulary,punctuation, and grammatical structures to communicate with a computer. In other words,learning a programming language is like learning a human language. A recent study showed thatprogrammers use language regions of the brain when understanding source code and found littleactivation in other regions of the brain devoted to mathematical thinking. Even thoughprogramming code involved mathematical operations, conditionals, and loop iterations,researchers found that programming had less in common with mathematics and more in commonwith human language [1].In our study, we applied the well-developed cognitive framework used in second languageacquisition (SLA), into a Blended Learning (aBLe

of reliable and validinstruments provides the foundation for potential curriculum changes in the design and teachingof capstone courses to improve motivational growth and better prepare students for careers.IntroductionFor decades, the engineering profession has expressed concerns that US universities are notpreparing engineering graduates adequately to keep the nation competitive [1]. A recent nationalworkshop [2] of engineering employers identified 36 basic knowledge, skills, and abilities(KSAs) that are important in engineers entering the workforce. Among these, 15 KSAs wereidentified as most important and yet under-developed in graduates—one of which is self-driveand motivation. A subsequent workshop [3] of engineering students revealed

clients from diverse backgrounds [1]. Universities have respondedto the demands of industry to prepare engineers to work in groups and team problem solving thatrely upon metacognition and greater self-awareness [2]. In alignment with industry expectations for professionalism, ABET established standards thatspeak to critical thinking, communication, and demonstrate other professional skills. To achievethe ABET standards, some engineering schools require courses that arise from liberal artstraditions and thus, address issues of ethics, professionalization and the broader societal context.Those courses often provide a gateway for a student’s collegiate experience and affect everyincoming student’s sense of belongings in engineering.

These frameworks represent some of the material faculty interact with duringthe Intensive and, as such, guide what aspects of the classroom observers attend to when usingthe ELCOT. The categories observers code include student organization, student talk, studentactivity, and instructor activity, each of which includes subcodes (see Appendix A). The studentactivity codes are grouped into levels according to Webb’s depth of knowledge (2007; seeAppendix C for operational definitions).

Despite evidence of effectiveness, STEMinstructors can be hesitant to adopt research-supported practices for student-centered learning.Hence, identifying effective methods to bridge the gap between STEM education research resultsand classroom practice is a topic of significant interest. While a variety of workshops and similarone-time interventions have been developed to help STEM instructors adopt research-basedteaching practices, research in professional development suggests that ongoing teachingdevelopment is much more effective than one-time efforts [2], [3], [4].Building on the research results of the K-12 education community, we created a network offaculty learning communities [5

The quality and quantity ofconcepts generated in this phase affect and even determine the outcomes of the final designsolution [3], [4]. Prior research demonstrates that numerous concept generation techniquescan be used to facilitate engineers to increase creativity and generate more design alternatives[3], [5], [6]. Therefore, understanding concept generation and its techniques has importancefor engineering education and the design industry.There are two broad categories to classify concept generation techniques: unstructured designmethods and structured design methods [7], [8], [9
