engineering. Thereare several guiding principles of constructivism 14,20,24,36,41:1. Understanding comes from interactions with the environment. A learner’s knowledge comes from his/her pre-existing knowledge and experience; and new knowledge is formed when connecting previous experience to the new content and environment.2. Conflict in the mind or puzzlement is the stimulus for learning and determines the organization and nature of what is learned.3. Knowledge involves social negotiation and the evaluation of the viability of individual understanding.The literature suggests that a change in the development of curriculum in teaching IFEM coursesis worth exploring.

AC 2012-2957: ENGINEERING STUDENTS’ PERCEPTION ON LEARN-ING THROUGH COOPERATIVE PROBLEM-BASED LEARNING (CPBL)FOR THE FIRST TIMEDr. Fatin Aliah Phang, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia Cooperative problem-based learning (CPBL) has been proven to be a powerful technique in engaging and developing students in learning, as well as a multitude of professional skills. Nevertheless, academic staff in engineering who are new to conducting CPBL may face difficulties because students who are new to this inquiry based technique will normally be ”traumatized” because of the drastic change in the learning environment and requirements. As part of a larger study on training and supporting academic staff in implementing CPBL, a

Together, these studies suggest that student persistence in STEM may be a strong function ofstudent satisfaction related to STEM education processes, support structures, and culture.Nontraditional Student SuccessThe literature further indicates that nontraditional students often use more personalized andbroad-minded measures to consider and evaluate their own educational success. For example,Wirth and Padilla [12] found that community college students took a wider view of their successand used goal realization and course completion (rather than degree completion) as indicators oftheir personal achievement. Johnson and Berge [22] emphasized that goal realization may

Forthe first half-day, students are presented with constrained problems strongly tied to their coursecontent. These problems serve as warm-ups, introducing the problem space and leading studentsthrough an analysis of a related but simplified system. These warm-up problems also provide anassessment opportunity that can be used as an assignment in one or more courses, whichstrengthens the links to course content in students’ minds and makes the expectation clear thatthe time is not just about having fun as a team.
