In contrast, this proposal concentrates heavily on the development of processes that integrate instructional (student, instructor, course, curriculum) measurements and analysis with ABET (Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology)-mandated assessment and improvement. Thus, a major deliverable of the project is a transferable system with which other engineering programs could monitor their own instructional environment and develop and test their own educational innovations. 3.

, 2018 Design Thinking in Engineering Course DesignAbstractDesign thinking is a robust framework for creatively and effectively identifying and solvingimportant human problems. While design thinking is commonly associated with fields likeindustrial design, it can be applied to many problem types. For example, several recent examplesdemonstrate the applicability of design thinking to the design and development of educationalmaterials, courses, and systems. These results suggest that design thinking could be used as aframework to (re)design and develop effective engineering courses. The goal of this project is tounderstand how nine educators from different backgrounds did or did not use design thinking toredesign a sophomore

This research projectis being conducted by the Engineering Education Unit (EEU) of UC Engineering and it has twomain objectives. The first objective is to identify and describe caring teaching practices andattitudes. Our objective is to clearly describe the practice, so that it is easy implementable by anyengineering teacher.As a second objective, we want to understand what is the influence that caring teaching has on thestudents’ learning experience.

This idea was motivated by early morning classes in whichstudents are tired and have difficulty paying attention and remaining focused. This work offers arelatively simple but effective approach which takes only about 5 minutes of class time once perweek. The basic idea is to start off the class period with interesting a fun material that issomewhat related to the course material. This helps to capture students’ attention, wakes themup a bit, and gets their interest and energy flowing early in the period. Following this activity,the remaining class period can be treated as normal
