She employs active learning and project-based learning in her curriculum, using varied approaches for different levels, and correlating course design and teaching techniques to learning outcomes. Dr. Levey was awarded Best Professional Paper at the ASEE NE conference in 2020 for collaborative research related to identifying and addressing gaps in Math skills needed for courses at the sophomore level. She draws from her cross-functional team experience as a Metallurgical Engineer in applied research and development prior to moving into academia.Prof. Ahmet Can Sabuncu, Worcester Polytechnic Institute Dr. Sabuncu holds a Ph.

The platform contained many built-in elements that wereeasy to navigate and customize throughout the semester. During the semester, EduSourced wasutilized for a mid-semester 360-review to garner feedback from industry/peer mentors, and teammembers themselves. EduSourced was also used for the final project peer evaluations to assessand confirm team dynamics. As previously stated, this platform had ready-made survey elementsembedded from previous experiential learning or capstone courses through their customerdatabase.

Since today’s collegestudents are deeply motivated by large scale problems and environmental issues [18], significanteffort was expended in helping them to select broad, diverse faculty-directed projects orientedtoward the Grand Challenges for their initial research team experiences, where possible [19].

Theinstitute has also built physical labs hosting equipment that students can remotely access andwork with, while monitoring the process, via cameras mounted around the physical labequipment.Every program requires the students to undertake a capstone project from their place of workin the final semester, which is mentored by their organization supervisor and a faculty expert.This is periodically reviewed, assessed and graded.

result, the students develop a potential solution and/or prototype considering the market and user in the engineering design process. b. Industry: Similar to a senior design capstone project, an industry-sponsored project allows underclassmen to engage early in the engineering design process. Each project has milestones that the students must complete throughout the year. There is an industry technical advisor that meets with each group, as well as a technical lead at the school to ensure deliverables are met. The advantage to this track over senior design projects is that because not all students are seniors, companies can introduce multi

Classroom: A Missing Piece in Transitioning Students from Academia to the WorkplaceIntroductionCurrent approaches to engineering education incorporate learning experiences to develop theproblem-solving, critical thinking, and interpersonal skills needed in the modern workplace.These skills are cultivated through increased exposure to real-world scenarios and challenges,and practiced during group projects, internships, and capstone experiences. While significantattention has been devoted to bridging the gaps between engineering theory and practice,classroom learning and workplace realities, and individual vs. teamwork, one crucial area thatremains under-recognized is the development of effective supervisor-subordinate
