information through a series of courses taken byundergraduate students also needs to be studied. These issues are addressed in ongoing studieswhich will be reported later. Further, the scalability of this approach will also be studied in otherengineering schools in the future. Although this study focuses on the tools, course content,elements of structure and process of learning, it does not specifically address the role andinfluence of faculty on the learning environment.Acknowledgements: Support for this work is provided by the National Science Foundation Award No. DUE1504692 and 1504696.

Further, the acceptable reliability indicates students are answering the items consistentlywhich further reflects alignment of the items to our four constructs of interest.We were able to provide an additional level of assurance that our instrument is aligned with ourassessment goals through our analysis of the students’ responses in conjunction with their individualcharacteristics.

capstonedesign curriculum, the current two year research project was designed to implement and assessthe efficacy of the activities as an integral part of the course. IC activities have been incorporatedin the USAFA capstone design course previously, but their effects were not directly studied.Nevertheless, faculty observations and customer feedback suggested that creativity and productinnovation improvements occurred. Thus, sufficient anecdotal evidence existed to motivatefurther formal examination of the impact of IC activities on the USAFA engineering designprocess and capstone design course.Since the underlying conceptual process of the capstone design course and the DI activityexperience reflects the divergent thinking processes it is appropriate

) between students’ use of representations in each stageand the respective scores. One exception was the configuration step, where the score was well correlatedwith the amount of representations used. The correlation resulted in a value of .52 (p-value = .002) for theconfiguration step. To evaluate the effects of each type of representation on this score, we performed amultiple linear regression. Equation (1) describes the model used to predict students’ score on theconfiguration step (SC) based on the numbers of images, plots, tables, equations, calculations, and charts.Results reveal a significant effect of the use of equations on this stage (p-value < 0.016). No other type ofrepresentation had significant effect. This fact could reflect the

Also, a comparison ofstudents’ conceptual and exam performance in the two flipped sections versus the “traditional”section enabled direct assessment of the benefits of the new approach, with significantdifferences not being detected.

A test was set by each researcher and both researchers take each other’s test toevaluate how consistent the coding process was done with respect to each other. Multiple testswere set and done after each iteration as the researchers deliberate to ensure all the coding donewas consistent. The test gives a Pooled Kappa that reflects the agreement between bothresearchers. The final two tests gave a Pooled Kappa of 0.67, which falls in the range of goodagreement between both researchers. The relationship between Pooled Kappa and Cohen’s kappa(a measure to evaluate inter-rater agreement) is that the Pooled Kappa is a global

different ways. For the mostpart however, there was a common factor that many students identified through the interview. Ifthe student received a “not mastered” mark, they would almost always redo the problem,regardless of overall performance level.Some exceptions to this occurred. First, students with poor attendance records and poor recordsof turning in the original assignment would also sometimes skip turning in resubmissions. This isnot viewed as a direct result of the mastery grading system, rather a reflection of general poorparticipation by a small percentage of students across any system. Second, some studentsindicated that if multiple resubmits piled up and important coursework from other classes alsobecame time consuming, they would

These studies could add tothe limited body of research in engineering education regarding intentional conceptual change aswell as interventions to promote conceptual change for other content.Conclusions This research study demonstrated that undergraduate engineering students havemisconceptions about the emergent characteristics of drift. Through a written protocol andsubsequent analysis, specific misconceptions of emergence for drift were identified and werefound to be prevalent. Even though some misconceptions observed here reflected those that havebeen reported in the literature about emergence, relationships between the differentmisconceptions were observed. Misconceptions for the emergent characteristics of thephenomena were

. According to Downing and Haladyna6, validity is the mostimportant consideration in test evaluation and refers to the appropriateness, meaningfulness, andusefulness of the specific inferences made from test scores. Haynes et al.7 go on to warn us thatdata from an invalid instrument can “over-represent, omit, or under-represent some facets of theconstruct and reflect variables outside the construct domain”.The use of unreliable and/or invalid instruments in engineering education could lead to theinaccurate measurement of student outcomes and perceptions, incorrect program and classassessments, as well as a general misrepresentation of the current state of engineering education.In this paper, we propose a structured methodology for the initial steps

Actively engaged students are similar to constructively engaged students; however,they differ in that actively engaged students manipulate content material without generating newideas or concepts. Activities carried out by these students are often described by verbs such asrepeat, rehearse, and copy. Lastly, passively engaged students are instruction-oriented andreceive information through listening, reading and watching.

This requires anenhanced curriculum with a focus on student teamwork, a greater consideration of social context,improved communication with diverse constituents, and reflection on an ethical understanding oftheir decisions and solutions. Effective faculty members need to mirror these values and skills intheir instruction and mentoring. Efforts have begun to reimagine the “engineering canon” whichrequires a shift from positioning engineering as a purely technical endeavor to framing it associo-technical. We are developing a new General Engineering program that incorporates thisperspective [30].
