potential collaborators. The small affinity group discussions were facilitated bythe committee members and invited experts. The first two affinity sessions followed the originaldesign, but a feedback session at the end of the first day led to reorganization of the affinitygroups to align with six attendee-selected topics: interdisciplinarity (across engineering and otherdisciplines), first year programs, learning technologies, project/case/hands-on learning, researchon design teaching and learning, and scholarship of teaching and learning. These new affinitygroups were selected based on their alignment with the ideas for innovations that the attendees

left in the capable hands of educational researchers—the focus of this paper is onpedagogic applications of the ARS in engineering education. An emphasis is placed onleveraging the inherent advantages of the ARS to overcome obstacles faced in particular by newengineering educators. Four applications of the ARS are discussed. These applications are usingthe ARS to: survey students to determine their preferences on course administration; solicitingstudents for formative feedback on teaching; assessing students’ mastery of subject matter; andincreasing interaction in teaching new subject matter.This paper is arranged as follows. In Section 2 an overview of state-of-the-art ARS technology isprovided. In Section 3 through Section 6, four

white spaces for notetaking. Instead, a new approach isneeded, in which images are copied into a word processor, then manipulated to transform user-hostile handouts into user-friendly handouts. Assessment of this approach includes student-generated improvement recommendations. Students photocopy their notes, then mark them withred pen to indicate recommended changes. This approach is not limited to fluid power, or even toengineering; it lends itself to any image-intensive topic, technical or otherwise.IntroductionOne reason students choose to enroll in Mechanical Engineering Technology rather than inMechanical Engineering is the hands-on, practical nature of an MET curriculum.

positive teaching experience for the new teacher, and better learning environment andeducation for the students.IntroductionMany new as well as experienced teachers of engineering, science, and technology in collegesand universities often struggle with the teaching component of their jobs. This can be veryfrustrating as these individuals see themselves as highly-intelligent, well-accomplished peoplewho understand the material that they are attempting to teach to students—often undergraduatestudents. When the teaching struggles result in (a) poor teaching evaluations by the students or(b) a significant reduction of time spent developing his or her research program, the teachingproblems can reduce the chances of the faculty member gaining tenure.
