They said that they would use knowledge from the project to inspire students toattend college and consider degree programs related to mathematics and science. They also saidthe program would allow them to appreciate their own capacity for making lasting change instudents’ lives, increase student engagement and creativity in their classrooms, enable students tobecome more independent learners, and facilitate students becoming better citizens as theyrecognized their capacity to help solve problems.The Making Inspired by

scaled test.This study required the students to utilize engineering knowledge and practices to design andconstruct the tower using easily accessible materials and tools. The tower was constructed perthe 2018 Earthquake Engineering Research Institute (EERI) Seismic Design Competition rulesand guidelines defining the design details and the two ground motions applied. As the studentsdid not plan to enter into the EERI SDC, they designed beyond the guideline restrictions to testthe use of seismic isolators. The tower was experimentally tested using the Shake Table II byQuanser available at SFSU with and without isolators. This project built upon the students’background in structural analysis, design, and mechanical vibrations. However, their

Overview of CAPS ProgramFunded by NSF, CAPS is a 5-year project that emphasizes broadening the participation ofunderrepresented minority students including female students, by helping ECST scholarsgraduate faster and with better academic records. The program aims to 1) ensure that 50% ofscholars graduate in 5 years which is 4 times higher than our college’s current graduation rate;and 2) ensure that 90% of scholars retain their scholarships year to year.

role in supporting strategic goals for diversity in American highereducation. American universities have integrated language on diversity and inclusion into theirstrategic plans focusing on hiring and research, thus articulating the importance of diversity ontheir campuses. Academic engineering librarians can consider two strategies to playing this roleeffectively. The first strategy involves three areas of activity: collection development, publicservices, and outreach. All three directly support institutional strategic goals related to researchand diversity. The importance of collection development lies in the selection of educationalresources to support academic programming and faculty/staff development. Public services(reference

A carefulevaluation of student learning outcomes is necessary to determine the suitability of Mechanical Engineeringcourses for online education ensuring proper alignment of course outcomes with the instructional medium.Researchers have structured teaching roles in online courses into four categories, namely (i) a managerialor organizational roles concerned with planning, leadership, and monitoring the process, (ii) a social roleas the facilitator of discourse and discussion, (iii) an intellectual or pedagogical role sharing scholarlyknowledge, and finally (iv) a technical role providing

To facilitate effective dissemination to a large number ofinstitutions, a unique hub-based system has been devised. Dissemination of the LC-DLMmodules is focused around seven national hubs, all of which have faculty members experiencedwith LC-DLM technology and implementation. To date, 46 universities and programsrepresented by 48 faculty members, excluding the project PIs, have been recruited to participatein the LC-DLM dissemination effort. This includes one two-year

This research effort continues, and we plan to elaborate by presentingfirst-year and senior-year students with more open-ended problems multiple timesthroughout a semester. Additionally, our panel of experts are still judging the students’solutions for creativity and validity. In the future, we may expand our judging panel toinclude engineers from industry as their perception of creativity may or may not bedifferent.

This course was offered topracticing teachers during the 2018 spring semester, and the aim was to determine how theseteachers would use collective argumentation to learn how to code and what lesson plans theywould develop to teach their students how to code.

Therefore, ways have to be found to enhance the understanding of systems’thinking, and at the same time, to develop educational experiences that could efficiently improvelearning outcomes.2) Looking at risk management and uncertainty: Engineering design is carried out relying onincomplete data, imperfect models, often with unclear objectives, and other potential problemsand constraints.

The extensive planning necessary to flip a classroommeans that a detailed schedule of topics is typically available to the students at the outset of thecourse. That detailed schedule proves invaluable when students plan how to best work on theproject. One drawback of problem-based learning is that students report spending more timeworking on the course [19] which increases the time requirements on an already crowded studentschedule. However, this is offset by the use of the flipped format as students spend approximately20 % less time outside of
