A related limitation isthe lack of comparative pre- and post-surveys from previous semesters: that is, what wouldstudent confidence levels look like derived from surveys without the prospect of a presentation-related workshop?Along with addressing these limitations, future administrations of these surveys and workshopswill also address various logistical issues about the experience, some of which appear in Tables9-11 above (fewer students per workshop group, longer time slots/a less rushed setting, and soon).References 1.

the most significant limitation of the analytic rubrics: they didn’t effectivelyrepresent for the students the way(s) in which design deliverables are evaluated in anon-academic context, and therefore writing in response to those rubrics wasn’t providing the“authentic,” real-world design project experience that is one of the goals of our course. Asupervisor or potential client wouldn’t decide how they felt about a design report by tallying up aseries of points awarded for discrete categories, nor would they be likely to evaluate an oralprogress report by considering the technical content separate from the way in which that contentis delivered; audiences react and respond to written and oral communication much moreholistically--even those

projects for engineers in art,music, dance, and theatre[9]. The 2018 publication from The National Academies of Engineeringand Sciences outlines 100’s of collaborations between STEM and Humanities and Artsfaculty[10]. The report states that researchers have found the integration of STEM and thehumanities increases knowledge retention and can make learning more engaging. For a morecomplete analysis of the benefits of these efforts the interested reader is directed to the NationalAcademies report. This paper describes a design project given to first-year engineering students that allowedthem to experiment with connecting engineering and the humanities. The project invited studentsto use Mary Shelley’s classic novel Frankenstein as a platform to
sortof career fair-type activity outside of class. A sampling of the universities in this university’speer and aspirational groups examined appears in Appendix 1.Courses involving career development concepts and activities have proliferated since the1980’s;13 however, little is known about the effectiveness of these courses on employability andthe ways other activities such as internships and prior experience contribute to student success.14Sagan’s 2000 study of the effects of career preparation suggested that any supplemental careerpreparation is valuable although a modest positive effect occurred when preparation wasconsidered independent of individual characteristics. Of course, related work experience andinternships had the greatest effect
. Oneconsequence of this is that in terms of chronology, formal education in engineering at theundergraduate level came into being before the profession was well-organized in the UnitedStates. As the just quoted phrase “mechanic arts” suggests, the term “mechanical engineer” was Page 25.537.3still somewhat uncommon in the 1860’s. Terms such as electrical engineer or chemical engineeror industrial engineer were coined during the just described fifty year period in which academicdisciplines were being created and defined. The long term effect on engineering education ofthis is that while most professions such as medicine and law are taught in separate

If the work of art illustrates a process from the past, a perspective on how theprocess (or environmental/safety considerations) have changed to the present is expected withmore weight on the present.Timeline:Initial choice for topic/work of art: due Monday, March 18th.

Just giving it, you know, a status take of how much each person is buying and what each person is buying, and then sending them ads related to the situation. But, I personally feel that there’s nothing really wrong keeping track of what each person buys from your own shop. However, the privacy part, we can get to that later, but….Rakesh asks if “anyone else feel[s] what Target did wasn’t wrong” and stresses that he doesn’tfind much wrong with anything Target did, framing Target as innocent and having done nothingwrong.
