Details about the sessionare presented in the following section.Engineering Physics Special Laboratory SessionsThe Engineering Physics laboratory session changes every year. The goal is to keep the contentfresh, and interesting for the campers. “Find a solution to a real-world problem” is the themeused while selecting the project for the summer camp. For the 2016 summer camp, the problemwas decided to be: How do you deliver a payload from a high-altitude, and track it so it will notbe lost? In order to simulate this problem the students

opportunity to calibrate an instrument against tabulated values fromnature.Design of ExperimentsA key idea from metrology and quality measurements that has long been part of EP Lab is theDesign of Experiments (DOE). This approach allows the researcher to model a complex processbased on a relatively small amount of empirical data. The DOE method is a key part both the SixSigma11 and the Certified Quality Engineer12 certifications. In EP Lab, students develop a two-level, three-factor, full-factorial model of a catapult (i.e. each combination of “high” and “low”settings for the three inputs is used). As reported in our earlier work,1 with our recognition ofDOE as a key component in metrology and measurement quality, we added a term project todevelop a

The quality of their physics education may therefore have alasting impact on their scientific literacy and their attitudes toward science. “Learners are awareof and control their learning by actively participating in reflective thinking – assessing what theyknow, what they need to know, and how they bridge that gap – during learning situations”.(MacDonald, 2009) In this grant-funded research project, students were asked to performreflections through journal writing after each class. They needed to include date, list of activitiesdone in class, what they have learned from today’s activities and questions/comments they stillhave

Quizzes were graded with nodetails. Without given solutions, students were then asked to conduct reflective self-correctionson each quiz that they did not receive full credits. It was possible to increase their quiz scores upto full points if students successfully completed the required tasks.

There is also a design project done in teams as well as a presentation on a contemporarytopic in optics by each student.The primary delivery mode of the traditional course is the lecture because, as is typical ofphysics courses, it involves a lot of derivations. Students come to class, take notes as fast as theycan, ask a few questions along the way, and then go home and work a few problems, some ofwhich involve deriving or proving some result from the lecture. Each offering, a few studentscomment on student evaluations that the course does not have enough worked example problemsduring class, that is, it is not applied

Recent projections show that there must be a 34%increase of students graduating in STEM fields within the next decade to allow the US to remaincompetitive on the world stage.

The engineeringprograms at Wentworth Institute of Technology strongly focus on project-based learning.Devices and prototyping are therefore an integral part of many of the courses for which physicsis a prerequisite. Hence, it is essential that students leave with a working knowledge of basiccircuit concepts as well as an appreciation for the complexity that can arise in circuit analysis.Given this population, the main learning outcomes of the new game-based exercise were forstudents to: 1. Demonstrate the ability to add resistors in series. 2. Demonstrate an ability to add resistors in parallel. 3. Decompose a complex circuit into its basic elements. 4

Conclusion and Future Work In this paper, we have tried to create a vivid description of the general physics classroom by reviewing several of the most commonly cited problems that result from the course content and method of instruction. We realize that without having implemented our project in an actual classroom or obtaining any data of our own, we cannot make any new conclusions. However, by describing a broad set of issues as well as simple solutions, we hope to offer the average teacher with at least one new idea to try and use with his or her own students. This process is in the preliminary stages, and we would like to

However, going though upper level courses now, we have only 1 student fromthe old system and 3 from the new system, insufficient for a meaningful study. However, otherfactors suggest that the program is, at a minimum, not hurting students.We have also seen an increase in interest from mathematics majors in taking upper levelcoursework in sciences and applied sciences for
