minors. o Technology Leadership and Communication: one graduate studentThe goals for this project were twofold: to design and configure a real-time DSP platform for themusic effects system and to provide an experiential learning environment where students couldapply best practices in engineering design. The students concentrated on the technical goals: • Choose a few common D.J. music effects to focus upon and develop algorithms for the effects • Select a real-time Digital Signal Processing (DSP) platform to implement the effects. (Three sample evaluation boards were purchased before the beginning of the summer for the students to test, but in the end, none of these were used. The students found a better solution

However, research on the effect of engineering education onthe development of empathy is virtually nonexistent, and even studies linking empathy toinnovation outcomes are rare. This study takes a first step towards evidence-based practice bydemonstrating that graduate students’ self-reported empathy (as measured by perspective takingtendencies) as well as their innovation self-efficacy (as measured by confidence in design

These needsare greatly impacted by systems of social oppression, which disproportionately affect ourstudents. We also recognize that these systems of oppression are active within the universityitself, and even within our own classrooms. To build STEM educational systems that prioritizeequity and justice, we require the development of the critical consciousness [see 8] necessary forfaculty to begin to understand how systems of oppression are reproduced, albeit oftenunintentionally, within their own classrooms.

For example, when a project on wind turbine design[6] was introduced into the course, 20% of the course grade was based upon how muchelectricity a student team’s turbine generated, and another 20% was based upon the final designreport associated with the project.

Engineering Education, 2007 Developing Cognitive, Affective, Behavioral Work Sampling Methodologies to Assess Student Learning OutcomesAbstractIn this study, we develop and validate a work sampling methodology to assess processes thatengineers usually engage in (i.e., working in teams, conducting design work, addressing ethicalissues). To obtain in-depth measures for these process oriented student learning outcomes, 100percent behavioral observation is typically used, but which is time consuming and expensive.Work sampling is a common industry practice used to observe physical activities, as it minimizestime to collect data, yet provides statistically similar results relative to 100% behavioralobservation. In our research we
