Interdisciplinary Problem-Solving among Pre- Collegiate Engineering Students via Materials Science PrinciplesAbstractGiven that fundamental materials science principles transcend traditional disciplinaryboundaries, a grand opportunity exists to leverage materials science concepts to facilitatemultidisciplinary teaching and learning. This paper presents the development andimplementation of a three-phase teaching module designed to foster organic, cross-disciplinarydiscourse and learning among pre-collegiate engineering students. Thirty domestic andinternational high school students were selected for an introductory four-week summer course inengineering. The students were divided into two classes, either civil engineering or nuclearengineering

His team also assisted in the deployment of 84 TACMAV systems in 2005. Around that time he volunteered as a science advisor and worked at the Rapid Equipping Force during the summer of 2005 where he was exposed to a number of unmanned systems technologies. His initial group composed of about 6 S&T grew to nearly 30 between 2003 and 2010 as he transitioned from a Branch head to an acting Division Chief. In 2010-2012 he again was selected to teach Mathematics at the United States Military Academy West Point. Upon returning to ARL’s Vehicle

If virtual and in-person learning was happeningsynchronously, the Zoom call was projected in the classroom so that all students could see andhear each other. A video and audio feed was also available from the classroom so that studentscould hear each other across platforms.ResultsThe results of both Cohort A and Cohort B’s activities were extremely promising. Students inCohort A had statistically significant improvements in the number of other students they feltcomfortable working with over the course of the semester. At the start of the semester, studentsidentified in the survey that they were willing to work with an

is proposed by involving engineering and biological sciences students andfaculty in collaborative teaching and research. This objective will be accomplished primarily bydeveloping an integrative course in “Biomechanics and Biotransport” that incorporatescomputational, demonstrational, and experimental laboratories and secondarily, by involvingstudents in sustained semester research projects. Students will first study the fundamentalprinciples of Biomaterials involved in biological systems through a prerequisite introductorycourse, “Mechanical Properties of Biological Tissues”. Next in a sequence the proposed“Integrative Biomechanics and Biotransport” course comprises (i) biomechanics of solids thatincludes static and dynamic force and moment

theseconflicting constraints, certain compromises are made in the delivery of the material to thestudents and in the exercises performed in the laboratory. Page 14.269.5The first compromise relates to the material that is selected. Rather than attempt to teach all ofthe material that might normally be associated with a 2000-level course in any one discipline, thechoice was made to pare the material to that which is essential to provide sufficient depth for thestudents to understand the related laboratory exercises. In this context, the emphasis in theclassroom is on the most commonly encountered concepts rather than interesting special cases.In

The principle aim of this project is to give students, atundergraduate level, a fundamental understanding of nanoscale science. Wentworth Institute ofTechnology has received multiple government and private funding to initiate an undergraduatenanotechnology education and the establishment of a nanotechnology laboratory.

They used the deviceto evaluate its functionality and disassemble and reassemble it to study its optics,mechanics, and circuit boards. Subsequently, they presented their device to otherstudents, in Spanish. Thus, they furthered their knowledge of device, language, andculture. In doing so they derived all the benefits of the original language program

Like many universities,students evaluate the instructor at the end of the semester. Some of the student comments frommy first-time teaching were, “the course being fast pace,” “difficult to understand” and “toomuch math and very few labs.” They also mentioned that they were constantly being rushed tofinish the lab experiment on time. Overall, student feedback clearly showed that students did nothave a positive experience from the only electrical

Wealso show the final project designs for the nanodevices or nanosystems that were proposed bystudent teams at the end of the course.
