One is studying how strategies of engagement and feedback with support from internet tools and resources affect conceptual change and associated impact on students’ attitude, achievement, and per- sistence. The other is on the factors that promote persistence and success in retention of undergraduate students in engineering.

included pre-, in- and post-class documents and activities, designed with the threecolumn lecture planning table. Table I was applied to the point defect formation energycalculation module taught in the Structure of Materials course.Students were required to study the basic modeling concepts before the class. The first 15minutes of the class were for a quiz, followed by quiz solution analysis and explanation. This in-class quiz assessed students’ understanding of the modeling concepts they self-studied before theclass. The instructor also answered students’ questions. The rest of the time in the class was forhands-on practice. The in-class exercises were designed for different course topics and learningoutcomes. For example, the course topic was

Projects will be assessed by a team of faculty and graduate students who are notresponsible for the course using a cognitive domain rubric. In addition, students will be asked tocomplete a survey that both addresses the cognitive domain as well as the affective domain relatedto the connections between concepts in materials science and their professional goals. Data will becompared across groups provided different types of mentorship during the development of theirproject. We will report on the final

faculty to do a better job of integrating science, math and communication in the engineering curricula.17,18,19 In 1995, the National Research Council’s (NRC) Board on Engineering Education called upon all engineering colleges to provide more exposure to interdisciplinary/cross-disciplinary aspects of teamwork, hands-on experience, creative design, and exposure to “real” engineering and industrial practices, identifying integration of key fundamental concepts in science and engineering as the number-one principle for new engineering curricula and culture.20 Ideally, entire curricula would comprehensively integrate these subjects. However, integrating these subject domains into engineering is most critical at the freshman level
