education that is situated in a realistic and comparable environment commonly seenin project-based learning (PBL) courses. A common example of these types of learningenvironments is represented in design courses, both at the first-year and senior levels. Thesetypes of courses require students to exhibit a high level of motivation and advanced cognitivedevelopment, representative of an adult learner, in order to successfully meet the requirements ofthe course.Studies have acknowledged that in order to develop critical thinkers and capable problemsolvers, teachers must understand the needs of today’s engineering student and design instructionto meet those needs. The development of students in undergraduate curriculum varies widely asundergraduates

Red Gold improves the community’s economy by using a team of 60professional growers to produce tomatoes on 10,000 acres of farmland within 100 milesof the processing plant. The company’s employment expands from 1,100 to 1,500 duringharvest and they use their 1,000,000 square feet of floor space to produce over 100different tomato products in 20 different sizes and containers.1Red Gold’s operating philosophy and guiding principles are an integral part of thesuccess of this project and are stated, in part, below: Philosophy: Growing Leaders the Red Gold Way At Red Gold, we’re committed to developing highly-skilled leaders with the overall

As thecurricula were developed, consideration was given to keeping required undergraduate coursesthroughout the last year of the program. The senior design project usually provides thisconstraint in that it may not be possible to offer that course(s) out of sequence. In the case of theElectrical – MBA program in Figure 1, it is typically not possible to complete all of the SeniorElectives (EE Sr Elec) prior to the 5th year.Advanced Placement – Completing both degrees in five years requires that students are ahead ofthe traditional curriculum.

Integration was important to the authorsbecause they believe that this pedagogy is effective, even if the students are faculty members,and that the faculty will be more highly motivated to adopt pedagogy that they have experiencedthemselves. The use of the Wiki website devoted to this CBI dissemination project facilitatedthe training process by improving the quality of the faculty workshops while also reducing therequired time investment of faculty and the workshop team. Over several semesters, with theinput of workshop participants, the site has grown to include a breadth of CBI examples that arenow well integrated into the workshop activities.
