different from what is discussed in lecture that week.) Because ofthis, laboratory teaching assistants (TAs) need to be familiar with the content of the course. TheM&I labs are taught in an interactive studio style, where students engage in hands-onexperiments, computer modeling activities, and group problem solving. Because of this, labsideally require more than one TA per 20-student section, and special TA training is required.In Spring 2006, a small number of graduate TAs were trained in the labs for both semester ofM&I. These TAs served as experienced TAs in future semesters, and were supplemented withnew TAs who were trained “just-in-time” during weekly course meetings.

Lectures are updated to improve class discussions andunderstanding; laboratory exercises are restructured to provide the right emphasis; homeworkassignments are refreshed; and projects are rejuvenated to increase the application of the subjectmatter. All of this effort is aimed at increasing the students’ comprehension of the material beingstudied. Regrettably this process creates a

the instructor’s direct guidance. If successful, these activities can switch the balance tolearning from teaching and foster a more long-term internalization of the content. Since manyengineering students are better at deriving than memorizing, active learning can help them makethe connections between concepts, in addition, and as an aide to, acquiring and retainingknowledge. Active learning has been well researched in the educational literature. Most notably,the papers by Felder and Brent,2,3 focusing on collaborative-cooperative activities, have helpedconfirm the effectiveness of these approaches by documenting higher academic achievement,better high-level reasoning and critical thinking skills for students in STEM.

Additionally, community service and outreach programs have aided students in mastering communication skills and applying appropriate learning strategies.
