Cooperative and Experiential Education

makerspace has developed three mainstrategies for driving a diverse and larger set of students from its engineering, math, and physicalscience majors into the space to serve as a platform for design practice, cross-disciplinaryexploration, and community building. The first strategy aims to introduce the makerspace tostudents as early as possible, hopefully developing an early familiarity and connection to thespace. The second is the development of collaborative and structured learning opportunities thatencourages the teaching of broad skills and sharing of information within the makerspace,whether in the form of for-credit courses or short and accessible Microcourses. The third is toleverage web and social media to create excitement around student

Engineering Education, 2020 Understanding How Co-op Students View their LearningAbstractThis research paper discusses student perspectives on learning while on co-op and suggests waysto improve co-op experiences for students. Successful outcomes of co-op, like graduating withhigher GPAs [1], [2], having an easier time transitioning into full-time work [3], or beginningwith higher starting salaries [2], [4] have been discussed in the past, however, little is formallydocumented on the ways in which co-op provides these benefits. These benefits could be realizedthrough many different pathways which may include students improving technical and/orprofessional skills, refining their identity, and increasing their self-efficacy, among

establishment of an EELAC, training of faculty champions, anddevelopment of a structure to design and review experiential coursework offers a frameworkthrough which faculty can mentor other faculty in the development of experiential learningcompetencies and evaluate experiential course curriculum. As a work-in-progress (WIP) paper,the purpose of this paper was to present a theoretical foundation supporting the value ofexperiential education in higher education, discuss how ExEL was launched at our university,and describe how faculty worked together to deliver courses in an active and experiential wayspecific to engineering education course design.The formative evaluation process is not complete. Only preliminary feedback through studentand faculty
