teaching experiences across all spaces. His focus on the user experience and data, has led to development and adoption of design strategies that measure learning and teaching efficacies across his service in various institutions of higher education. A geophysicist by academic training, he began to design multimedia applications for teaching and learning in the late 1990’s, developing his first online course in 1996. Since then, he has helped a few hundred faculty from varied disciplines develop hybrid and online courses. He has also taught traditional, hybrid and online courses ranging in size from 28 to 250. He is also co-developer of a Digital Academy which c American Society for Engineering

this group was a combination of the fact that the areaof advanced manufacturing was identified as a gap in the workforce necessary to enableconsistent U. S. economic growth [12-15] in this globally critical area, and of the interest inguiding veterans towards STEM careers. The current project was conducted by a research teamof faculty members from the colleges of engineering and education at Old Dominion Universitywith broader areas of expertise: mechanical engineering with focus on robotics and bio-inspiredrobots in particular, digital thread, additive manufacturing, electrical engineering,microprocessor based design, material and technology engineering, as well as engineeringeducation. The team has also broad expertise in working with
active learning teachingpractices in their classrooms. We will continue to evaluate the data from additional coursestaught by the faculty participants to provide more robust and definitive answers to the researchquestions. This data combined with additional RTOP classroom observations will providegreater insights into the impact of the faculty development program on low-SES engineeringstudents and will be presented at forthcoming ASEE conferences and through additionalpublications.AcknowledgementsThe authors gratefully acknowledge the support of this work by the National ScienceFoundation under Grant No. 1524527.References 1) Freeman, S., Eddy, S.

As defined by Yin (2017), through case studies acontemporary phenomenon (the case) is investigated in depth and within its real-world context.The process of conducting a case study starts with the selection of the case(s). For this study,four cases from different industrial segments were selected. The rationale behind the selection ofthe four industries for this study was the identification of industrial segments with significanthiring rates of practicing engineers, and the most attractive employers from the perspective ofstudents pursuing engineering in the United States. Reliable sources of data were utilized for theidentification of these industrial segments: the Bureau of Labor
have to support other educational goals, such as teaching students how to engage ineffective teamwork.TeamworkEffective teamwork is essential for project success. Typically, much of the “training” inteamwork is experiential - students may be given some theoretical framework(s) forunderstanding what is going on, but learning seems to happen during actual project work.Assessment of teamwork is non-trivial and tends to rely heavily on peer assessment, such as useof CATME [17]. It is also difficult to provide timely feedback to teams unless an instructor isoverseeing all of the student teams on a daily basis. Frequent Scrum meetings under thesupervision of the Scrum Master provide an opportunity to gain real-time insights. However,what is to be

As the baby boomers employed in the electricalpower systems fields have started to retire, there is an urgent need to recruit and graduate anincreasing number of well-educated and well-trained next generation professionals from bothAssociate degree and Bachelor ’s degree programs.

though males rated the females’leadership competency higher comparing to the females’ ratings of males, male students stilldid not believe in the leadership ability of female students as much as females themselvesbelieve.Based on the Rowan-Kenyon et al. [19]’s study, if a female student could lead a team, itwould be useful for teams because females tend to define leading as facilitating team andhaving the responsibility toward teams. This may cause conflict with male notions ofleadership, so some instruction may be necessary to legitimize alternative approaches toleadership. In addition, the last two studies in this section proved in teams that are led bystudents, underrepresented students showed better performance. These results highlight

WHY do engineers need to be proficient at communicating through writing, orally, and graphically? 2.

The results of thesurvey, regardless of the type of the communication, show a meaningful positive change in thelevel of the students’ confidence in each category at the end of the semester, with the largestchange belonging to the graphical communication.

theworkforce [6]. There are many explanations of individual excellence and entrepreneurialmindset [7,8, 9] and multiple studies about engineering students [10,11,12] with an emphasison a high need for achievement and potential for break-through innovation [13]. Since the late1990’s engineers and designers have been exploring moods and feelings and their connectionto better solutions [14]. And while research links entrepreneurial status to personality theory[15] and personality to leadership [16], few studies focus on the impact of emotion oninnovative success. This paper aims to begin filling that gap with a preliminary experiment toshow how students experience a story of innovation. The experiment is inspired by Radcliffe President Mattina

Using data from Taiwan, Lin and Chiu [10]found that postdoc training is associated with higher likelihood of maintaining an academicresearch career for engineering PhDs. Using data from Frances, Hanchane and Recotillet [9]found postdoc experience to be correlated with likelihood of a research career in science, but notin engineering fields. Andalib et al.’s [11] analysis of the NSF SDR data shows that compared toother STEM fields, engineering postdocs are particularly likely to leave the postdoc role beforeobtaining a tenure track position, and instead

similar to doodling is that of “sketchnoting”, wherein notes are either presented ortaken using a combination of drawings and words. Proponents [7], [8] of sketchnoting supportthe idea that the learning benefits of sketching and drawing are tied to the need for a person totranslate ideas from one format (words) to another (pictures).Perhaps the most comprehensive resource related to the above, and this current paper, is thebook, The Doodle Revolution by S, Brown [9], which discusses the concept of the “Infodoodle”.An Infodoodle is a simple drawing that is created with the purpose of capturing and conveyinginformation.
