An article by Brothers displays a pyramid chart, which is the result of a study byNational Testing Laboratories in Bethel, Maine (p. 78).9 The learning pyramid chart in thatarticle reveals the average retention rate for various methods of teaching and retention. Lectureretention is about 5% and reading about 10%. Creating an atmosphere of collaboration,participation, and learning-by-doing increases learning retention up to 50%, according toBrothers. Many learners come to class, sit and put in their time. Teachers must help studentsunderstand that attendance is a good start, but it not enough to justify a grade showing

ECEdepartment offers EI&S course, a 3 credit course for non-EE majors. The course has a largeintake with approximately 100 students from mechanical, bio-system, material, applied, and civilengineering majors. The course is delivered in a traditional manner through lectures, labs, and apublished e-book made available to the students via university web. The course is managedthrough Angel, the university’s course e-management system, only to the extent of postingassignments, solutions and individual grades. The course is not assigned a fixed term faculty.Like most service courses, teaching responsibility is rotated among the departmental faculty on a2-3 year cycle.The course introduces the breadth of EE while providing hands-on experience in

The approach of S-L, with its roots in experientiallearning, is consistent with the theories and empirical research of a number of leading educatorsand developmental psychologists, as documented by (1). The approach is also consistent with therecent change in paradigm in education from a focus on teaching to a focus on learning (2). Inengineering, the goals is to have students become better professionals and better citizens whilethe community also benefits. Service-learning (S-L) has been shown to be effective in a largenumber of cognitive and affective measures, including critical thinking and tolerance fordiversity, and leads to better knowledge of course subject matter

Analysis and Optimization: An Exploratory Study (Evidence-based Practice)Background and MotivationThere is a long-standing interest and focus in educational research on electricity-related concepts, due totwo essential reasons: (a) electricity is one of the central areas of science, technology, and engineeringcurricula at all levels of education, and (b) its concepts are particularly difficult to teach and learn becausethey are abstract and complex 1. Therefore, both educators and students face several challengesthroughout the learning process 2. Students often develop their own conceptions of electricity, which maybe in conflict with the formal science perspectives 3. When these students’ interpretations of

Following an extensive review of engineering online programs, Bourne, Harris, &Mayadas31-32 found that a large number of them were available for master’s level, but there werefew bachelor’s degrees. A reason often noted to not developing engineering courses online is thechallenge of replicating hands-on laboratories over the internet, even though a great deal ofmodule development has been done in this area31-32.

In this framework the design process is completed in fivesteps: 1) A student’s initial learning occurs through interactions with the faculty and teaching assistants (experts) in a social setting- the design class or lab. This type of learning is collective and public and represented by Quadrant #1. Students first seek to understand the design process and their project through social interactions in the classroom, laboratory, or within a team. 2) Next the team analyzes the design project and breaks it down to component tasks. At this stage students become individually responsible for particular
