2005, the number of awarded engineering degrees that includedonline components had not significantly increased. They noted a distinct misconception thatonline education in engineering has to be self-paced without clear instructor guidance and littlecollaboration. With the technology available today, that is not the case. The authors also notedno significant differences have been found between online and on-campus students from 1992-2002 as reported by Moore in 2002 in the Journal of Asynchronous Learning Networks. Bourneet al.’s key point is the pedagogy must be examined and evaluated. If this is done properly, thenonline engineering education is possible because the addition of synchronous time in a coursepermits nearly the same level of
obtained, has always been a challenge. They tend to think of components that are too simple to analyze. Therefore more guidelines have been provided on how to select an appropriate component for the project that addresses all CLOs. Where necessary, an engineering component has been selected for them to work on.As a side note to this, few students always creatively think of a common project topic thataddresses different aspects and requirements to satisfy another course(s) they take during thesame term, for example, a senior capstone design course or another ME elective course such asfailure considerations in design or failure analysis courses. This is a highly desirable as itprovides a total learning experience for the

Depending on the personalities of theindividual students and industrial visitors, faculty may need to take an active role in getting aconversation started. One may for example begin immediately with introductions all around andask each person to tell something personal about themselves (where they’re from, hobbies or sideinterests, etc.) Once the introductions are complete, the faculty member may encourage thestudents to ask questions or ask questions that s/he thinks would be of interest to them to get theconversation going.

One movement that has emerged as promising pedagogy is that of ActiveLearning. Active Learning consists of a set of teaching/learning classroom strategies that engagethe students directly in the learning process and requires them to think about what they are doing.5This is contrasted with the

The results provide ME faculty insightsinto how implementation of an Intro to ME course may affect the capstone design process attheir own institutions.IntroductionDesign is an essential element of engineering practice [1]. Early design experiences forundergraduate engineering students in the United States has been an increasing trend since thelate 1980’s, motivated by a recognition that undergraduate engineering students often began theirexposure to this fundamental concept late in their engineering studies [2]. This exposure todesign processes typically happened in a
addition, each assignment has Grading Criteria with valuable clues on various simulation aspects such as footnotes, hyperlinks, and an Appendix featuring multiple examples that are relevant to the given simulation. 3. Students’ final grade is determined by performance on simulation assignments and three exams. Assignments have two components: structured (with step-by-step instructions) and unstructured (IBL). We use interviews with students throughout the semester and after the course(s), as well as instructors’ observations to tweak individual assignments and the overall simulation assignment line-up for the upcoming semester. 4.

extent. As mentioned before, several assessmenttools have been identified such as classwork/homework, quizzes/exams and projects.Sincere attempt is made to refer to the CLOs while designing the contents of theassessment tools used. For example, each exam question clearly stated the concept beingtested in that question, and to what extent that question addresses the CLO(s) and how itmaps the PO(s). Students were informed where this information will be used. The statedCLO(s) is/are assumed to be satisfied based on their achieving a certain grade on thatquestion. This is repeated for all assessment tools used in this course, particularly for thefinal project, in which the students used math and CAE tools to a great extent. At first, itlooks like
