There areethical guidelines for research involving animals, but they may warrant reconsideration,given new developments and debates over

Therefore, additionalparameters that could affect the DFW rate were added to the instructor’s choice of instruction.This paper intends to explain each of

That is, we consider youth in their cultural, social,linguistic, and institutional contexts. As youth interact with peers, learning communities, andmore-knowledgeable others to engage in authentic engineering work and discourse, they developdisciplinary knowledge and practices [12–14]. Engaging in engineering design activitiesincluding brainstorming, planning, constructing, testing, analyzing, and iterating affords youthopportunities to develop facility with the types of activity and discourse (speaking, gesturing,writing, representing) that constitute engineering [15, 16].

The course also builds in year-over-year consistency by incorporating undergraduatestudent mentors and course assistants, who are trained in the assessment methods, after having taken thecourse, so that they can serve as effective Teaching Assistants (TA) in the class to the new first-yearstudents.

By separating thread friction from sealing friction,students were allowed to concentrate on measuring the friction from one area. To develop theirdesigns, students used Pro/Engineer software.The students were instructed in filling out a preliminary “pre-patent” form to document theiroriginal idea. This was done in order to familiarize students with a very necessary part of thecreative design process, formal documentation.

For example, theopening project of the AMES curriculum that introduces the Cartesian coordinate systeminvolves students guiding a peer to a certain spot in the class using only verbal instructions.Unless the student giving directions is very specific, the student following the instructions mayend up in a completely different position than the directing student intended.

In addition, the program coordinator acted as a mentor to the upper classmen. In the end, a professional (as well as a social) network was formed among the student participants as a direct consequence of this novel style of peer/tier-mentoring. This proved to be essential since most 1st year engineering students (particularly from underrepresented populations) struggle in identifying a network of students within their major that they can associate with professionally and socially. 3) Career
