psychomotor) into what’scalled Bloom’s Taxonomy. By understanding the hierarchal structure of this taxonomy, studentshave successfully supplemented these ideologies into their learning patterns. This paper exploressome of the many methods for teaching engineering economics in a way that enablesengagement and long-term retention.It is also the intent of this paper to address the importance of integrating economics into theengineering curricula. Due to globalization and economic complexity, engineers are nowrequired to have an in-depth understanding of the markets and how changes in these marketsaffect their bottom line. These can include a variety of things, such as understanding interestrates required to increase or sustain levels of capital stock

class in their curriculum sequence. They chose the third formof scaffolding approach, and the results showed that scaffolding (and the other methods theystudied) have an effect on student performance in the class currently taken and in the followingclasses. One of the recommendations of the study was to encourage faculty to use scaffolding intheir classroom instruction. Girgis used scaffolding for teaching the techniques of problemsolving to underrepresented minority students. 9 Using the second approach, he conducted a one-week case study in three sessions with increasing complexity, and structured guidancethroughout the sessions. His study showed notable progress in students’ problem solving skillsand received positive feedback from the

paperdescribes an effort using short readings, which require minimal effort on the part of the studentsor instructor, in class topics that require some effort, and research papers that requireconsiderable effort to complete and grade. The goals of these readings and topics are diverse andinclude building character, encouraging creativity and compassion, and gaining a betterunderstanding of the modern business environment. Appropriate topics can also encouragestudent interest in the subject.References 1. Hartman, J.
