The initial review of the articles consisted of ahigh-level examination of the articles in which the researcher noted the purpose, questions, andresults of each study. During this review, the first author reflected on what was read, noting keyfindings and making initial connections. The second review included an examination of themethodology, results, discussion, and any implications or limitations of the studies. During thesecond review of the data, themes common to the articles were extracted.ResultsThree themes emerged from the analysis of 11 articles collected in the systematized search. Thethemes describe the types of experiences women encounter in engineering industry. Most of

-university collaboration towards theimplementation of a professional development program for construction students improved theirinterviewing and soft skills, contributing to their professional identity development [22]. Well-designed informal learning programs will provide construction students with exposure to rolemodels, mentors, experiences, symbols and rituals within the architectural-engineering-construction (AEC) professional community to enhance their professional identity development.This occurs because these experiences encourage students’ reflections, interests, persistence, andand bring them to full participation in the construction professional community.BackgroundThrough a formal proposal submission by an HBCU for the development of a

Every new piece of information is connected to existing knowledge after subjectiveinterpretation to fit their existing beliefs. Thus, new information can be connected appropriatelyand will reflect each person’s objective reality; it can also be connected to the incorrect beliefsand interpreted subjectively; or, it will be rejected (not retained), if it contradicts the learner’sbeliefs.11 Inductive teaching methodology is an active learning methodology which allows theinstructor to expose mistaken perceptions and beliefs of learners, and lead them to reframingtheir beliefs before new information is introduced and connected to the learner’s

All BME courses are patient-centered, which is atypical of medical device and medical device regulation courses. For example, when the Director teaches eighteen electrical and mechanical medical devices 3 that have saved numerous lives in her Medical Device Systems course, five requirements from applicable engineering standards are discussed for each medical device. As a former Vice President of Research in the medical device industry, she asks students to reflect if each requirement is

A participant reflects on the lack of timeissue: I would say that the largest cost has been our individual time, the faculty members' individual time. Because it takes some time to think about your course syllabus in a different way, thinking about ... Because in the curriculum plan, it shows you ... or there's indications of what courses might be prerequisites. But then we had to go back and think about what topics within that course are the most relevant.Another participant recounts what resources could make more time possible: I think that there's probably something as a carrot and a stick to get faculty together to do

The current prerequisite to the AppliedMechanics I class is Physics for Engineers I. Before the redesign of Physics curriculum theprerequisite was PHYS 215, Engineering Physics I, which was a traditional Physics class. It washeavily oriented towards theory and the lab components were rather disjointed with thetheoretical learning activities. We compared the Applied Mechanics I class final grade pointaverage (which reflects all assignment grades, including homework, quizzes, and a total of threeexams) as a measure of the performance

The action ofreconnecting to the problem with a constructive approach encourages students to take ownershipof their short- and long-term learning goals. As part of life-long learning skills, students developself-learning habits to understand the need for recognizing real-life problems, allocating time todo independent research and reflect upon findings (Hmelo-Silver, 2004; Hoidn & Kärkkäinen,2014).3.0 ENVIRONMENTS FOR FOSTERING EFFECTIVE CRITICAL THINKINGThe Environments for Fostering Effective Critical Thinking, or

Other students said they could not become engineersbecause they were not creative or didn’t know how to ideate. Several students said they couldbecome engineers but would not because they planned to pursue another career of interest. It ispossible that all of these students might find engineering more appealing if they saw their ownskills and interests reflected in engineering. For example, we note that six girls and one boyplanned to become veterinarians; perhaps these students would be drawn toward engineering ifthey were aware of ways to

builders as an important experience they desired for themselves. For example,Batya, an 18 year old African-American girl who came to the program from a large city,explained that she took the time to reflect and think whether and how participation in theprogram would be beneficial to her. She described having conversations with her design teacherand several women in her family. Batya described that making and building was something thatshe was used to doing alongside her brothers: “Growing up I have all brothers. So being aroundgirls and doing stuff that I would normally do with boys, it, kind of I guess, not changes myperspective, but widens it. So, I might be more comfortable personally just working doing thingsthat I wouldn't normally do with

Students will develop problem statements and design criteria/requirements by evaluating a project scenario using design techniques (such as mind mapping or functional decomposition). 2. As a part of a design team, students will use the engineering design process to design, create, and evaluate a prototype that addresses realistic design constraints and requirements. 3. Students will self-assess, select, pursue, and demonstrate competency with a variety of tools, methods, and software as determined by their program. 4. Students will analyze

Moredetails about the rubric and the grading scheme are described in [8,9].Locating, classifying and correcting errors on exams can be a very important part of the learningprocess. This is referred to as reflection by cognitive scientists [2], and we prefer that studentsrather than graders glean this benefit. We hope that this process leads to higher accuracy andgrades in the future, all while developing an engineering mindset for checking work and locatingmistakes.Early and Frequent Assessment. In this new course design the timing and frequency ofassessment is important. It is recommended that students get two or three early assessmentsduring the first five weeks of the semester.

Secondly, reflecting the social fairness, building a community with a shared future formankind and fully stimulating the social innovative vitality are the philosophical startingpoints of engineering ethics and inclusive innovation.

However, many doodles were created last minute orwithout much thought in order to obtain the points.On the positive side, several students provided comments such as:I like the doodle because it helped visualize the concept.I liked the doodles because I felt they gave me an opportunity to think in more detail of the actualapplications of what I'm learning, other than the applications given to me in class. I think this isan important skill for engineers, when you consider how much of engineering is thinking

A WSN may have one or multiple base-stationswhich collect data from all sensory devices. These base-stations serve as the interface throughwhich the WSN interacts with the outside world [2]. The basic premise of a WSN is to performnetworked sensing using many relatively rudimentary sensors instead of utilizing the moreconventional approach of developing a few expensive and sophisticated sensing modules [2].The potential advantage of networked sensing over the conventional approach, can besummarized as greater coverage, accuracy

A rise in sales of water filters such as Brita or PUR,bottled water, and safer reusable drinking containers (e.g. BPA-free plastics) reflects this concernin drinking water, along with the recent Flint, Michigan water crisis that made headlines [1].However, there are still very few accurate and cost-effective ways to test water or beveragequality.
