Inthis semester-long project, students were introduced to new engineering topics in lecture, they practicedtechniques in mini labs, and then applied the knowledge to their project while considering theentrepreneurial mindset at every step. In this paper, we hypothesized that an EML module that utilized aproject-based approach would improve student engagement, improve technical laboratory and writing skillsand foster student’s curiosity to learn about human body motion. This project led to a mastery in kinematics,kinetics and human body motion technology with a stronger

Work in Progress: Building Intuition in Mechanics with Haptic FeedbackIntroductionPeople learn best by interacting with physical systems: by exploring and receiving rich sensoryfeedback. In engineering education, this sensory feedback is provided best by laboratories andprojects. However, it is not possible or practical to build physical systems for every engineeringproblem that students encounter. Because of these practical limitations, much of an engineer’seducation comes through analyzing systems drawn on paper or projected on a screen.One solution is to use haptic devices to simulate physical interaction. Haptic devices make itpossible to rapidly create and interact with a wide range of physical systems. When

This paperdescribes the design of a new hardware kit and sequence of laboratory exercises which aim togive students hands-on experience with Embedded systems and IOT at an early stage in theiracademic careers. The kit is based on a low-cost, wireless-networked, 32-bit ARMmicrocontroller with integrated Cloud support. The sequence of lab exercises which buildincrementally on one another is described in detail, and the experience gained running them forthe first time is reported.

A variety of research has been conducted tocatalog the positive impacts of makerspaces especially as it relates to engineering education. Ascampuses develop makerspaces, they have used the spaces as a type of laboratory to test theimpact of projects and courses related to making.

Although a statistical comparison showed that scores from the United States were higher than the scores from Kuwait, Kuwaiti females scored statistically higher than US females for CT abilities. Therefore, the investigation concludes that the STEM outreach program effectively promoted CT concepts in Kuwait.IntroductionThe objective of computational thinking (CT) is to increase computer science (CS)knowledge so that students can take what they learn in the classroom and laboratory andapply that knowledge to the modern workplace.

They spend a total of three weeks in each of the experiential learning facilities(laboratories and other learning environments), and working with a dedicated teaching team to get exposed tovarious project-based approaches in each field of study.Following this model, a set of one-credit courses are also designed to be offered in the second semester,focusing on each particular undergraduate program. Therefore, in their first year, students not only know aboutother programs of study in the school, but also get experience with a deep-dive, program-specific survey courseas a follow-up in their second semester of study.
