actual implementation of this specific methodology—the UX lifecycle—to course design. This analyze-design -prototype-evaluate iterativeapproach is very similar to what Denning and Dargan called action-centered design insoftware engineering [48]; paraphrasing their proposal (italics replacing original text), this is“a broader interpretation of design that is based on observing repetitive actions of students ina domain and connecting those action-processes to supportive instructional technologies.”Similarly, student-centered learning requires students to be active agents, responsibleparticipants in their own learning, while the teacher becomes the facilitator aptly adaptinginstruction based on their gauged needs [49].

.Although pre-calculus is what most students are expected to have completed, in the first two yearsdifferent advisors have allowed students with a lower level of preparedness to be in this class. Wehave since then tightened this up so that poorly prepared students are put in other mathematicsclasses prior to them taking Engr 1234. It is still too early to conclusively state if this course ishelping with retention and we will continue to monitor retention data for the next few years tomeasure the impact.References 1.

education. In reviewing early attempts at K-12 engineering education, theNRC found that including engineering in K-12 education has numerous benefits including:improved learning and achievement in science and mathematics; increased awareness ofengineering and the work of engineers; understanding of and the ability to engage in engineeringdesign; interest in pursuing engineering as a career; and increased technological literacy. 2Initially individual states led the effort to include engineering in K-12 education. More recentlyattention has shifted to the national level by integrating engineering design into the NextGeneration Science Standards (NGSS) at the same level as scientific inquiry. The NRC notesthat the insight and interest students gain
our classification system for industry sectors thatare closely related to engineering. Other popular industries included Healthcare (n = 74),Information Technology (n = 58), and Other (n = 56). Especially given the representation ofbiomedical engineering alumni, it is difficult to say how a degree holder might categorize aposition where they are involved in the manufacturing of medical devices. Additionally, for thosealumni who selected Other, we gave them the opportunity to write in their response. Interestingly,alumni wrote in sectors that may be generally considered to be related to engineering, including“oil and gas” and “consulting,” but which were not specifically named in our broad list of industrysectors.

engineering with science, technology and mathematics disciplines toexamine STEM as a whole. While STEM as an aggregation of fields has become a point of focusbecause of the disciplines’ long-standing lack of faculty diversity [27], there are a few studiesthat examine differences between disciplines. Gumpertz et al. [28] analyzed institutional recordsat four large land grant universities for hiring of assistant or associate professors. Data weredisaggregated by gender/discipline and race/discipline. The team found that women inengineering were more likely than men to leave the institution and depart without tenure. Theyfound no such differences between genders in science, technology, and mathematics. The authorsnoted that minority faculty

into the pedagogy of laboratory design.1 IntroductionEngineering is a discipline that requires interaction with the physical world, so it is of littlesurprise that there is broad consensus among engineering educators that laboratory classes are animportant part of engineering curriculums [1]. However, the Accreditation Board forEngineering and Technology (ABET) doesn’t specify how many laboratory classes should be inan engineering program, instead offering the guideline that laboratory experiences should be“appropriate to the program” [2]. Literature is also quiet on the question of “how manyengineering laboratory classes does an undergraduate engineer take?”This study tried to answer that question by performing a systematic review of
