capability.”During the final interview with Team 1, another student stated: “I mean, there was some stuff that [the lab] kind of thought of late, [features] that they sort of thought about and they wanted added in… they didn't really tell us about [the features] until way into the designing process.”These thoughts were reflected in the students’ post-course surveys. For example, one Team 1student added a caveat to their pre-course response about how stakeholders should have aprominent role during design: “Stakeholders should have a large role but they also need to understand the entire design process and know what kind of limitations there are.”The same Team 1 student also changed their pre-course response to Question 4

Here we present qualitative results of thesurvey.MethodologyFor the follow up survey we utilized the database of clients who enrolled inextracurricular courses in IT from Unium. We have been provided with data going backto 2007. From the broad range of educational courses offered by Unium we have focusedonly on those that are IT-related, namely: Web-design, computer flash graphics, andprogramming in C/C++. We limited the selection pool to over 900 pupils satisfying thosecriteria, including 142 girls.We aimed to form a group of 8-10 young women for a focus

The Boe-Botswere equipped with a secondary, forward-looking SONAR to detect the proximity of other Boe-Bots. The students designed and developed the software for proximity detection and collisionavoidance reaction of the Boe-Bots. Through experimenting with the SONAR sensors, studentswere exposed to the concepts of range measurement, resolution and noise. They learned toimprove the SONAR signals via mechanical adjustments, such as increasing the reflection area,and also some

I couldn’t have fun with a subset of them, and of course, you have to be serious whenyou’re working, but I always want to clown and have fun, […] I like to get work done but I liketo also have fun with it.We believe this reflects how many of the traditional engineering firms come across as stodgy andunfriendly to this generation of students, and

Overall, 92% of students rated the experience as“excellent” or “good”, but 8% of students did identify the mentoring experience as “lacking” or“poor”. The students were not provided with information on what a good mentoring relationshipmeans. Instead they were expected to reflect on their own expectations. In regards to thenegative experience one student commented: “My mentor seemed to push off all mentorship work to her PhD students. I felt guiltyasking questions because she would hand all the questions over to her extremely busy students.The students took a lot of time out of their day to meet and discuss with me and I thank them forthat

Given its purpose to support student design interests, this facility perhapsqualifies to be called an academic makerspace but that title may not be appropriate due to aunique attribute of the facility. The MITERS workshop operates nearly independent from MIT,with the student members directing all aspects of its operation. This organizational structure ismore reflective of that found in community-based makerspaces outside of the academicenvironment.What is striking in these two examples from the same institution is their very different

point Chemical and Mechanical Engineering are the only two coreengineering discipline divisions that have committed to a diversity effort. It is our hope that thiswill change during the ‘year of action on diversity’.To quantify the prevalence of diversity-related efforts in engineering education, we did akeyword search for articles that appeared in the Journal of Engineering Education (JEE) and inthe European Journal of Engineering Education (EJEE). The number of relevant articles in thesejournals will reflect the diversity-related efforts happening in the United States (JEE) and Europe(EJEE). The keywords ‘diversity’, ‘women’, ‘minority’, and ‘gender’ were used as search termsfor homologous hits in article titles. Two other keywords commonly

During 2013 class offering there was more time devoted to the interactive activitiesbetween the faculty-students and students-students. This means that even less time was devotedto the theoretical material normally presented in the traditional lectures and students were"forced" to spend even more time studying. The reflection of this is the best students'performance - 83% average and 10% standard deviation in the final exam.

Basically, the classifier can recognizethese 3 objects with very high accuracy (89.1% for the digital scale, 91.3% for the pump and98.4% for the Xplorer GLX. The relatively low accuracy of the recognition is attributable to theKinect’s inability to cope with reflective surfaces which reduces the scanning accuracy.

recommend this workshop to others. Moreover, the resultsclearly show that the workshop was very well received by the participants. In addition, theaverage of all the survey questions from all respondents was 4.34 out of 5.0. The studentcomments on the survey reflected that: 1) speakers should come from different engineeringbackgrounds as opposed to all from civil engineering; 2) students indicated their desire to spendmore time working on the projects; 3) students liked the motivated speakers; 4) students wantedto have more field trips to engineering firms; and 5) students like to know about all the projectsinvolved in the workshop.The overall feedback question is presented in Appendix A. From the data collected it is obviousthat the workshop was
