designThis study is grounded in an interpretivist research philosophy that acknowledges a subjective,socially constructed reality [11]. Consistent with this philosophy, we will use open-endedquestions in an interview setting to understand the participants’ realities through their ownperspectives. Throughout the research process, we will refer to Walther et al.’s qualityframework for interpretive research, which provides guiding questions to ensure quality throughall the stages of research – from “making data” to “handling data” – and across six qualityconstructs: theoretical validation, procedural validation, communicative validation, pragmaticvalidation, ethical validation, and process reliability [12].

Pedagogy AbstractThe purpose of this work-in-progress (WIP) paper is to report on an ongoing study that used Chiand Wylie (2014)’s Interactive, Constructive, Active, and Passive (ICAP) framework (I > C > A> P) to survey the degree to which LC-DLMs foster cognitive engagement as students learn abouta venturi meter in a fluid mechanics and heat transfer course. Fredricks, Blumenfeld, and Paris(2004) define cognitive engagement as the effort students invest in understanding what they arelearning. Indeed, cognitive engagement is critical for effective teaching and learning inengineering. Although there is research evidence showing that students learn better with hands-onapproaches than traditional

The University would like to design a cost effective method for students to cross Fifth Ave. which would reduce the possibility of accidents at this intersection. You have been assigned to design a solution to this problem for presentation to the University Traffic Committee. In the process of designing your solution you have been asked to respond to the set of questions on the following pages. The interviewer has more paper if you need it. 1.

Over this timeframe, three main components were created; Levels of Use (howindividuals interact with the innovation), Stages of Concern (the feelings of individuals), andInnovation Configurations (how the innovation is adapted to a particular setting). When used inconjunction, these components aid in assessing and guiding the adoption of innovations in aneducational setting7.

Some students require a great deal ofsupport from teachers and mentors, while others persist on limited support or under their ownvolition. In this study, students that are motivated out of “a true sense of choice, a sense offeeling free in doing what [s/he] has chosen to do” are considered dogged6.An important aspect of motivation is found in the

A key deliverable is the implementation of the design algorithm, usually in aspreadsheet (see Figure 4).Students were guided toward designing load cell transducers configured as circular aluminumrings because aluminum rings of various sizes were readily and inexpensively available from thedepartment machine shop. Some student teams whose members had machine shop experiencechose to design and fabricate transducers of other types, such as a C-shaped transducer whichhad multiple attachment points to allow its range to be adjusted and an S-shaped transducerwhich was similar to some commercial designs (see Figure 5).
