intervention:Traditionally, engineering has been viewed purely as a technical problem-solvingdiscipline [11], pushing engineers into the real world with a “one-size-fits-all” approach.Consequently, advanced technological solutions to problems around the world are beingcarried out with little understanding of the solution’s local economic, social, and/orenvironmental impacts. To bring about social justice and sustainability throughengineering solutions, values and ethics must be at the forefront of current engineeringcurricula. A socio-technical project-based learning model is implemented in this course[12] with contextualized design problems. Various sustainability-themed activities areassigned to engage students throughout the course. The lab activities in the

education pipeline, the scope of this paperfocuses on an undergraduate class early in the curriculum, which is an important time framewhere women are more likely than men to leave the engineering track [3], [12]. The aim of thisstudy is to analyze several variables within an engineering curriculum where gender differencesexist: spatial visualization ability, performance in introductory engineering graphics courses, andwork-ethic with respect to classroom tasks, within the context of self-efficacy and persistence inengineering. Understanding the factors related to the gender gap in engineering is an importantfirst step toward future studies of targeted interventions to better meet the pedagogical needs of amore diverse student population.It has been

It is worth noting that there is a freeform tool in SolidWorksand theoretically a freeform approach can be taken but Inventor Fusion was deemed moresuitable for the task due to its more organic approach.MethodologyThe study was conducted using a group of Product Design students during their third year ofa four year undergraduate degree programme. Participation in the study was voluntary andanonymous. Ethics approval was acquired. Seventeen students completed all parts of thestudy. Students were randomly assigned participant numbers (using a shuffled deck ofnumbered playing cards). A questionnaire was given to each student at the

During the second semester, additional lectures on design for X, quality(including QFD, FMEA, Six Sigma, and robust engineering), data management, and ethics weregiven, with students refining and optimizing their design through further iterations as necessary,depending on the results of finite element analysis, prototype testing, and other investigations.Many students lacked an understanding of quality (not only as expressed in such tools as TQM,QFD, or Six Sigma, but also in producing quality work beyond meeting minimum requirements).The student teams had occasional homework assignments to

. The philosophy for the 1 point is that thestudent should receive some credit for at least making an effort to look at the problem. Class ParticipationWithout some motivator, many students will attend class and be passive participants in thelearning process. Attending class is another aspect of higher education where a student willexercise academic triage. Many of the students at University of Massachusetts Lowell are thefirst generation in their family to attend college and many have to work 20-40 hours a week tomeet their financial obligations for college and living costs. While these students have a verygood work ethic, they are all too often faced with making the choice among working, sleepingand attending class. Therefore, assigning

weekafter the submission). Although the students were allowed to meet the instructor and discuss theirmistakes during the office hours, they never received additional grades for such an extra effort.Though detailed records of these meetings were not kept, it was estimated that approximately40% of the students met the instructor more than two times for additional help outside theclassroom. In order to aid in the development of their spatial visualization skills, the feedback ontheir homework assignments were very detailed and the instructor provided them explanations ofthe areas where they needed to improve. In order to avoid any ethical conflicts, a pre-planned grading plan was formulated for thetwo classes. In the control class, the grading

Although students are expected to understand, use, and create images inacademic work, they are not always prepared to do so. Scholarly work with images requiresresearch, interpretation, analysis, and evaluation skills specific to visual materials. These abilitiescannot be taken for granted and

Undergraduate Student Administered SolidWorks ModuleIntroductionThe overall course goals of most first-year engineering design courses are to introducestudents to a design process through hands-on learning activities, to gain experience ingraphical communication using software such as AutoCAD, SolidWorks or Pro Engineer,and to inspire and instill an appreciation for the engineering profession, its ethics, andpractices. At Northeastern University where experiential education is at the forefront oflearning there is a common first-year curriculum for all majors in engineering. Thiscommon first year makes it difficult to provide the student with all the tools needed fortheir first cooperative educational experience (co-op). Students enter
