Anecdotal evidence based on questions asked of students during lab indicated thathaving a peer grade their assignments made them focus a little more on their work and putadditional effort into understanding the necessity of dimensioning rules. Student commentsduring the review sessions included: “It’s hard to figure out what someone else was thinking on their drawing when its dimensions are different than mine.” “Why is it easier to find someone else’s mistakes than it is to find mine before I turn it in?” “I

Theteacher-to-learner interaction takes place in scheduled face-to-face meetings and through weeklylogs submitted by the learner. The instructor has the opportunity to respond to logs for moreclarification. The learner, through log submissions, has the opportunity to synthesize

to a studentcentric model, where students become part of the means of their own instruction. Active learningprovides a number of different strategies to accomplish this and these techniques have beenresearched and have been shown to be effective means of instruction2.Literature on active learning generally includes the following characteristics: • Students are involved in more than listening. • Less emphasis is placed on transmitting information and more on developing students’ skills. • Students are involved in higher-order thinking (analysis, synthesis, evaluation). • Students are engaged in activities (e.g. reading, discussing, writing). • Greater emphasis is placed on students’ exploration of their own attitudes and values3

For students without previous experience in atechnical summer job, taking a plant trip and communicating with their sponsor’s engineers wasespecially valuable.Course Logistics 3—Grading and AdvisingThe instructor, team advisors, student peers, and the sponsors gave feedback and were involvedin evaluating the work. Eight advisors worked with the 24 teams. By the end of Step 6, only 10%of the total possible points could be earned. At this stage, students received much feedback andeditorial help on their writing and on using proper formats for the documentation. Individualpoints were earned through the midterm exam, the design journal, and the allocation of

The areas of designand technology have proven to be especially effective topics for ACJ assessment, and are ofspecial interest to the authors.This introductory paper examines the fundamental principles of comparative judging andadaptive comparative judging, and discusses some of the most recent and relevant research onthis topic. Key web-based ACJ tools and products are briefly reviewed—especially as they relateto academic settings. Applications in the areas of portfolio evaluation, graphics assessment, andpeer critiquing are also explored.Adaptive comparative judging has proven to be a method or assessment tool that is relativelystraightforward to

haste to complete the exercises. The clarity of text-based exercises can often be an issue. Not every student interprets instructions in the same way. Students read and interpret instructions at different speeds. This results in challenges keeping the class moving through material together. This can exacerbate a weaker student’s understanding of critical concepts as they rush in an attempt to keep pace with their peers. Instructors and TAs are often by-standers when students are working on these exercises. In many cases they are relegated to assisting students understand the instructions rather than engaging them in deepening their understanding of the concepts. This is not the best use of their time and skill

are not the focus of thispaper, their implications for the delivery of instruction necessitate changes to the traditionalstructure and delivery of a flipped class. The implementation of COVID protocols around socialdistancing and sharing of objects alone introduce difficulties to the active learning methods thatcharacterize a flipped class. While working on problem solving or completing in-class exercises,social distancing limits the ability of the instructor to provide one-on-one guidance and critique.Social distancing can also limit student group work and collaboration, which reduces the benefitsgarnered from peer-to-peer teaching. Eliminating the sharing of objects to reduce surface tosurface transmission has the effect of disrupting hands

ThePedagogy for Employability Group [2] suggests, when hiring graduates, employers seek thefollowing attributes:  imagination/creativity  adaptability/flexibility  willingness to learn  independent working/autonomy  working in a team  ability to manage others  ability to work under pressure  good oral communication  communication in writing for varied purposes/audiences  numeracy  attention to detail  time management  assumption of responsibility and for making decisions

The strategies are collected, some of them are chosen for discussion, followed by a short Creo demo that walks step by step through creating the model of the sample figure. The model is already finished, but the features are shown and discussed one at a time as shown in Figure 2, steps A thru D, with each feature’s modeling strategy being the focus of the discussion, not how specifically to draw the profiles, locate the holes, and so on.

Thebody of research investigating how best to educate 21st century engineering technology studentsto meet ABET’s 11 competencies has grown over the last two decades but opportunities to add tothe body of knowledge are still present and needed (Bjorklund, Parente, & Sathianathan, 2004,Turner, 2015).This paper describes a case study in which a small sample of senior engineering technologystudents were exposed to a design course that consisted of industry supplied curriculum (i.e.SOLIDWORKS guide) and a team project.

learner.Constructivist theory assumes that knowledge is constructed by learners as attempts to make senseof experiences.The role of teachers, as per Driscoll [16] is to allow learners to test their own understandingsagainst those of teachers or more advanced peers. The learner’s sense of their environment andtheir experiences must have some limits. The limits are constructed in the form of suggestions andguidelines from teachers and more advanced peers.Method in Teaching Design and Drafting Course (EGT212) Using Modified ConstructivistApproach 1.

Previous studies found thatstudents enrolled in introductory engineering graphics courses at Virginia State University, anHBCU, had lower than average test scores on the Purdue Spatial Visualization Test:Visualization of Rotations (PSVT) when it was administered during the first week of class.Because of the positive correlation between visualization ability and academic success in STEMcourses, changes were made to the engineering graphics courses to add a variety of visualizationenhancing activities including the use of sketching, blocks and multimedia. The result of theseactivities was improvement of the students’ visualization abilities and it was hypothesized thatthis

-based training programs have developedonline sketching interfaces to incorporate sketching exercises into their curriculum.Formative feedback is known to support self-regulated learning [7]. However, it is challengingfor a computer-based training program to provide customized formative feedback for students’sketches automatically. Writing constructive feedback to students’ sketches requires domainexpertise to determine what type of mistakes a student made since sketching questions couldhave an enormous number of possible incorrect answers. Therefore, though time-consuming,sketching exercises are often manually graded by instructors. A recent computer-based trainingprogram, eGrove’s Spatial Vis [8], either provides limited feedback on the
