Allfirst-year engineering students at the study site take a common course sequence preparing themto enter their chosen engineering discipline at the end of the freshman year, with studentsintending to major in electrical and computer engineering or computer science taking a second-semester course with an emphasis on computing and circuits. This course was the setting for thisstudy, with data collection occurring in the 2012-2013 academic year. Course content includedan introduction to ECE concepts including programming and analysis in MATLAB, and basiccircuits and sensors culminating in a half-semester team-based engineering design project andreport. In the first half of the semester, students engaged in a

This paper presents on the first year of athree-stage research project funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF).

The transformation took sevenmonths and included course planning, design, and development phases. During the planning phase,students’ needs were reviewed, and instructional strategies to better meet them were identified. Itwas concluded that giving students more practice would be the most direct approach to improvingtheir problem solving, and whenever possible, immediate feedback about students’ answers andspecific guidance should be provided.FALL 2017
