assessment 16. Theeffectiveness of the software implementation had been previously validated by an action-research study 17. This study showed instructors considered the software enhanced studentengagement and learning, while students described OASIS as easy to use and helpful inimproving skills and understanding. Given this positive evidence, it was decided to providehigh-school students with their own version of OASIS (School OASIS), the dual aims beingto improve the physics skills of incoming engineering students and to promote theUniversity‟s engineering courses. Additionally, since appropriate ethical requirements havebeen met, the wealth of data collected by School OASIS can be used in judging student-intake quality and for educational

-class time, required discussion questions were used to give the students achance to interact with each other and with the professor. The questions, posed by the professor,were open ended. Often, they had to do with ‘gray areas’ of materials – ethics, recycling, thepros and cons of changing from one material to another, etc. Other questions required students toresearch a certain topic, and provide links to information that they found interesting or helpful.A portion of the grade for the course was based on an open ended group project. Each group hadan open ended design question to research and answer, with an emphasis on material selection.Normally, student groups would present their solution to such a problem in front of the class.However, due

The topics include educational videos on computer ethics, data structures, virtual reality,calculus, linear algebra, and biocomputing. The educational videos target various age groups.The search resulted in a collection of 2550 videos. The goal of the search was to find educationalvideos relevant to these topics in computer science. However, it was possible to retrieve somevideos that were not relevant to the intended search queries. Such videos are called falsepositives and were manually removed from the collection. Following

ME 2024 is a required course for all ME students and provides an introduction toproduct development and design. The course emphasizes team collaboration and technicalwriting skills and includes topics like project management, mechanical dissections, engineeringeconomics, and ethics. Ten sections of ME2024 are offered each year with class sizes limited to30 to 36 students. It may be noted that all

learning through fixed amounts of lab time in social interaction with staff and lab partners. There was not the development budget nor the inclination to use autograding as a kind of “intelligent personal tutor15,16” whereby a student works many hours being guided through programmed instruction until mastery of a skill is detected. Nevertheless, it was easy to come up with questions that would require far more time than the students thought they had for the course. In conventional instruction limiting the assigned work is also a way to avoid overloading the amount of grading effort for the staff, but with autograding this is not the case. The “retry until success” work ethic also may require more time than

However, true hands-on activities may not exist or beavailable for all type of industries, such as within health care and core engineering sciences fieldsdue to cost, access, or ethical obligations. For these fields where direct hands-on experience isnot available, simulations can offer many benefits over learning environments that provide

called EngE 1024, “Engineering Exploration” Over the past seven years, the first-year courses in the GE program have evolved from somewhat standard problem solving(including statics, electrical engineering, material balance concepts), graphics, and programmingcourses to a format that emphasizes early design and realization, collaborative learning, andhighly interactive classroom environments. In 2004, the syllabus of EngE1024 was updated toinclude general problem solving, engineering ethics, visualization of 3-D objects and alsovisualization of information, early design (including realization), graphing and simple analysis ofgraphs, and introduction to object-oriented programming (OOP) approaches for problem solving.Further, significant
