Model components are identified in student journals and verified in other sources (reports,run data, oral presentations). A student researcher assembles this information and constructs thepreliminary Model Representation.

In addition, a literature and database searchshould identify recent activities of the company, including current business, technical and legalsuccesses/problems. This activity prepares the students to be more active in a subsequent mockinterview with the course instructor.We position the resume/corporate profile and mock interview writing assignments early in thesemester, so they aid students preparing for the Engineering Career Fair as well as corporateinterviewing on campus for summer intern, co-op, and permanent positions

camp along with some discussion guides on the topics and on theengineering design principles underlying artificial kidneys and aerosol medications targeted toregions of the lungs.IntroductionThe Oklahoma State University Alumni Association has hosted Grandparent University as anannual 3-day residential summer camp offered as two sessions each summer since 2003, exceptin 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Grandparent University is for children ages 7 to 13 whohave a parent or grandparent who is an active member of the Alumni Association and areaccompanied by their grandparent(s) or adult chaperone of their grandparents’ generation. Thecamp is intended to be a fun-filled experience that actively engages kids in academics on campuswhile creating
technical coursework, as Watters et al. [17] also pointed out. As an across-the-curriculummodel, Davis [22] suggested a micro-insertion approach, which introduces small units of ethicsinto technical courses. We will discuss this approach and how this paper’s work might beintegrated into this approach in more detail in the discussion section.Insights from the industry for ethics educationThe workplace provides engineers with opportunities to encounter and experience ethical issues.McGinn [23]’s survey with practicing engineers indicated that most (80.2% in 2001 survey, 89.2%in 1999 survey, and 84.4% in 1997 survey) practicing engineers think engineering students arelikely to encounter ethical issues in their future engineering practice, and
because when an engineer frames a problem, s/he gainsownership of the problem; having such ownership affirms her/his identity as an engineer. Thus,we sought to connect student assets to problem framing as a means to support a growth mindsetwherein diverse students view themselves as already having the capabilities to participate in thedesign process.Next stepsThere have been calls for more research specifically looking at how, when and why certaingroups—including Hispanics and Native Americans—initially choose and then persist inengineering.8 This research begins to address this call. Simply identifying engineering assets andnot acting on them will do little to change student persistence. This study represents a first step ina longer research

collected to confirm that biotin-FITC could be bound to streptavidincoated 96-well plates. Data plotted on a fluorescence vs. log of concentration graph show thetypical S-shaped curve for adsorbed species with a minimum detection limit of 50 μM and max-imum value of 5 mM of Biotin-FITC. The next experiment was to determine if the biotin-inhibitor could capture the DAPI-LNCaPs on the coated plastic surfaces. DAPI or 4’6-diamidino-2-phenylindole is a fluorescent stain that binds strongly to A-T rich regions in DNAthat excites at 358 nm and emits at 461 nm. Preliminary results suggest when more PCTCs are insuspension there is indeed a higher fluorescence intensity than less concentrated suspensions andboth high and low suspension concentrations result
inInterdisciplinary Studies and the topic has taken a front-line position in science and engineeringresearch in the US with the introduction of the Science and Technology Centers (STC) andEngineering Research Centers (ERC) by the National Science Foundation (NSF) in 1980’s. Thepreponderance of such centers in research education is clearly articulated by Schuler, who statesthat at some schools “interdisciplinary programs and centers… have become as numerous as thetraditional academic departments 2.” Finally, in 1998 ABET introduced its Engineering Criteria2000, which mandates that “Engineering programs will demonstrate that their graduates canfunction on interdisciplinary teams.” It turns out that interdisciplinary studies in engineeringeducation is rather

This should be included just after the description of each unit. § State the physics (i.e. creeping flow) and give the equation. Define terms and explain why relevant to the functionality of your device. § Describe the boundary conditions – equations are preferable. Justify and explain the assumptions. § Describe the parameters varied. For example, flow rates from 1 to 10 um/s were simulated. o Include a table/other to succinctly and clearly organize your simulation conditions &

Students were moved fromthe relative safety of a paper design to one where they are responsible for extractingrequirements from customers, physically building and operating systems, interpretingdata, and communicating their conclusions to their customers. There is significantly lessstructure and certainty in the second version, yet students continue to feel highly positiveabout the experience.Table 3: Mean Course Evaluation Scores (5 = agree strongly; 1 = disagree strongly)Course n Course Instructor Instructor(s) I would I wouldFormat was well was well was fair recommend recommend

guidance during formal class time 3, 4. It may be versions of PBL at theminimal-guidance extreme that led Kirschner et. al. 1 to name PBL as an example of an“instructional procedure that ignores the structures that constitute human cognitivearchitecture,” or more specifically, an instruction method that “proceed[s] with noreference to the characteristics of working memory, long-term memory, or the intricaterelations between them.” The tax on working memory during minimally guidedinstruction, Kirschner et al. argue, is great enough that students use all working memoryin their attempts to search for problem solutions, blocking their ability to truly learn thematerial via the accumulation of knowledge in long-term memory.However, as noted in Hmelo
