infuse thesetopics into any course. Touching on these issues frequently, even if not in-depth, may reinforceto students that considering societal impacts is an important part of the common activity ofengineers in all settings. This approach may also be less intimidating to engineering faculty, asfor the most part they have not been formally trained in teaching ethics. The list of topicsdescribed in this paper provide basic ideas, some of which are more common for particulardisciplines.A series of interviews are planned to explore promising macroethics education approaches, and asmaller number of examples will be selected as case studies for detailed study (including studentand alumni interviews, classroom observations, etc.).

authors are planning to expand upon this work through the following: 1) Develop new educational modules focusing on additional asynchronous circuit topics, such that asynchronous circuit concepts can be incorporated into a larger variety of Computer Engineering courses. 2) Develop a synthesis methodology using the developed NCL library that can be incorporated into the existing CAD tools. 3) Complete the development of NCL design and optimization CAD tools, which work with the Mentor Graphics design tool suite, such that students can design and test large NCL circuits and can study the operation of the asynchronous CAD tools in the context of their synchronous counterparts. 4) Port the static and semi-static libraries to Cadence

In this rapid prototyping phase, students should be encouraged to use easy-to-manipulate (e.g., cardboard, rubber bands) materials to develop multiple iterations of initial McKibbenmuscle mechanisms. Students should be encouraged to develop a design that addresses one of the threegame challenges using a McKibben muscle. Another option is to assign students to produce a simplemechanism to complete a specified task that will sufficiently develop the student's understanding of themuscle actuation. Subsequently, students will be able to brainstorm various ways to address the remainingchallenges not yet designed. Students should be given time to then sketch and plan for their

This is at least the second time the students have taken thiscourse. The workshops were designed to offer an alternative teaching-learning strategy for thestudents. Since students who repeat a course tend to miss classes under the assumption that theyhave already seen or done the activities of the workshops, teachers and designers planned theactivities using a teaching strategy (modified ILD) and incorporated technology (Phetsimulations) to make the physics course more engaging for the students [15].The innovative design was based on a positive

A strong theme that emergedfrom these comments include students’ appreciation for the flexibility afforded by the flipped-style class to engage with lecture material at their own pace, schedule, and manage commitmentsthey have in their lives. An interesting self-reflection from multiple students notes the high-levelof executive function (e.g. planning, focusing attention, remembering, and balancing multipletasks) and self-regulation (e.g. resisting impulses) required to be successful in this class format.The feedback of students who did not enjoy the flipped-style format suggest that this may also bethe source of their dislike

It will do little good, for example, to follow even our own suggestions, such ascompleting free body diagrams or sketching coordinates with single-headed arrows, if notaccompanied by a deeper commitment to and insight into student learning. Our real point is notsimply to call for correcting details, but rather, to engender within mechanics pedagogy the well-conceived and planned articulation of the concepts that underpin these details.
