This additionaldata will allow the researchers to investigate whether these patterns continue to hold.IntroductionA number of studies have assessed the value of including failure case studies in the civilengineering curriculum. It has been argued that failure case studies should be integrated into theengineering curriculum, early enough in order for young professionals to connect with theproblems encountered by engineers and perhaps trigger interest, excitement, and relevance of theprofession. In other words, exposing students to factors that result to failure and disaster canhelp them

This pedagogical requirement is especiallyimportant for software engineering education, where graduates are expected to develop softwarethat meets rigorous quality standards in functional and application domains. To enhancestudents’ understanding of the needs of the professional software industry, lecture notes aresupplanted by additional pedagogical tools being developed at the author’s institution for asoftware verification and validation (V&V) course. These active learning teaching tools,consisting of class exercises, case studies, and case study videos, are being developed inpartnership with industry. The basic objective of the project is to improve software education sothat it is

Accordingly, some researchers have used time spent on tasks inrelation to performance on tasks as indicators of cognitive flexibility. Another definition is the“selective use of knowledge to adaptively fit the needs of understanding and decision-making ofa particular situation” [1, p. 548]. The latter definition seems appropriate for describing cognitiveflexibility in engineering problem-solving but does not seem to be fully captured by existingmeasures of time spent on task and performance.Guided by CFT, the main goals of our NSF EEC project were to improve students’ abilities toapply sustainable engineering concepts across different problem contexts or

One possible solution to theproblem, a multi-year design/build/test project, is currently being studied by the authors. Theproject, a bench-scale hybrid powertrain, is completed by our students over the course of fivesemesters. The focus of this paper is the set of electronic circuitry needed to sense and controlthe powertrain. This is the latest installment in a series of papers discussing the project; see [2-6]for a fuller description.The “prime mover” in the benchtop hybrid is a small engine powered by compressed air, whichis designed and fabricated

. Communication and networking courses, especially wireless communication andnetworking courses, have become an integral part of the Electrical Engineering, ComputerScience, and Computer Engineering curricula. However, most of these courses are taught atmany institutions without a laboratory. For those courses associated with labs, often specialhardware based experiment systems are used. These experiment systems are expensive so mostschools cannot afford them. More importantly, such systems lack the flexibility to evolve overtime and adapt to different environments.
