Search:Born out of the shortage of qualified engineers in the U.S. (and around the world), research onengineering education has increased over the past decade and were highlighted in key NationalReports1-2. And while prior studies have focused on why students go into engineering initially3,there has been recognition that selecting an engineering major has not always been based onsignificant understanding of the profession4. It was recognized that an engineering educationalapproach based on a capstone design project offered tangible understanding of the field to studentsbut not until it was too late to reasonably change their intended plan of study, a study by Marinand Associates assessed the most important elements including student preparation

Perspectives on a Freshman Treatment of Electronic SystemsAbstract.The conventional approach to curriculum design is that students start with the basics of scienceand math and gradually progress towards a realistic integration of all their engineering skills in asenior capstone project. That approach is now challenged by changes in the assumed boundaryconditions. Students no longer progress through the program in lock-step. Electronicsapplications have evolved far beyond the components level and many cross-disciplinary skillsare needed. Finally, all students require a level of communications, team-working, trouble-shooting and representational skills that take a long time to mature so it is too late to wait till thesenior year to introduce them.

andcomplex problems,” can be achieved through educational practices, such as first-year seminars,learning communities, E-Portfolios, service learning courses, internships and capstone projects(7). Barriers that exist for integrative learning in higher education today often point to afragmented undergraduate curriculum (collections of independent classes in general education,specialized study, and electives) and the organization of knowledge into distinct and separatecolleges and departments, “even though scholarship, learning, and life have no such artificialboundaries” (p. 16) (7). Learning communities, capstone experiences, and service learningprojects can transcend these barriers by organizing around interdisciplinary themes, linkingcross

Her disciplinary research interests lie in the area of sustainability in asphalt pavements using material considerations, green technologies, and efficient pavement preservation techniques. Her doctoral work focused on improving the performance of recycled asphalt pavements using warm mix asphalt additives. As a postdoctoral scholar at North Carolina State University, she worked on several NCDOT sponsored research projects including developing specifica- tions for crack sealant application and performing field measurements of asphalt emulsion application in tack coats and chip seals.

The third project is a larger course capstone project where students apply thedesign process to solve a real time problem and come up with functional prototypes as a projectoutcome. All the projects are group-based projects and the final project groups are selected bystudents themselves based on their interest area for the project.

The third course in the sequence being more of a team design course, employs methodsfrom other design courses from FYE institutions in contact with our team (Adams, 2002; Atmanet al., 2007; Crismond & Adams, 2012; Turns et al., 2006). One engagement protocol that mixesbest practices from Adams’ work and is similar to the liberative ones employed by Riley is usedby one faculty member who requires all students to stand while discussing an element of designfrom the project, and the next speaker must amplify the previous student’s statement in terms ofhis own.

, 2017 An Assessment Framework for First- Year Introduction to Engineering Courses AbstractIn this evidence-based practice paper, we describe an assessment framework that applies to first-year introductory engineering courses. First-year engineering courses cover a variety of learningobjectives that address both technical and professional outcomes outlined in ABET. Thesecourses also often involve open-ended design and modeling projects. The assessment of multiplecompetencies along with open-ended design can be a challenging task for educators. In thispaper, we describe a framework that guides instructional processes for effective assessment forstudent learning

Within engineering education specifically, attempts have also been made to reinforce thefirst-year experience for students. Dym et al.12 described and evaluated how the core principlesof engineering and design are often taught via project-based learning. These authors note anincrease in “corner-stone (design) courses”—foundational, introductory courses, analogous tomore traditional “capstone” courses, but specifically geared toward first-year students—andobserve that these corner-stone courses have been “motivated by an awareness
