yearengineering students experience ENGR 1411 (Introduction to Engineering) and ENGR 2113(Statics). An open-ended project is presented to ENGR 2113 students where they are tasked todemonstrate a concept learned in statics. This requires the student team to design and build inorder to demonstrate. Chapter exams were revamped into 50/50 competencies. These competenciesare content based versus chapter based which enhances a student’s connection within content.Finally, the development of the Engineering Learning Laboratory for Statics allows upperclassmento mentor and support first year engineering students.THE PROBLEMA study from 2014 found that students in a traditional style classroom are 1.5 times more likely to fail inSTEM curriculum than those that are

of Structural Steel DesignABSTRACT Students entering college settings are: increasingly computer literate, users of digitaltechnologies, visually driven, and have been exposed to active learning styles in high schools. Notionsof technology, visual learners, and engaging environments are directly and indirectly shaping how weare expected to teach. When students are asked their preferences in classroom learning, the author hasnoticed that responses vary with preferences for PowerPoint slides, chalkboard notes, projects, flippedclassrooms and utilization of computer software. Based on these common and upcoming learningmechanisms, the author is experimenting with implementing different techniques in a

Further, this paper will explore the potential of using ACJ as a formativeassessment and feedback tool.Key Words: Adaptive Comparative Judgment, Design Graphics, Design AssessmentIntroduction The current methods to assess design problems and projects are often unreliable anddifficult to use in practice due to the creative and ill-structured nature of these problems

We have found great success with “Modeling and Design” an innovative,required course which engages our students as biomedical engineers from their first day at JohnsHopkins. Small groups, guided by upperclassmen lab managers, teaching assistants, and faculty,work through five modules including modeling human efficiency, the arm, and thecardiovascular system, as well as a foam core design project. By the conclusion of the fifthmodule, an independent modeling project, 96% of the students appreciate the value of working inteams to tackle complex challenges.

Studentsregister a lecture and a studio section. The studio sections consist of up to 16 students andinclude two instructors: one engineering and one communication faculty. Additionally, studentsform groups of four and are paired with an external client who poses the problem statement.For the first course, there is one project per studio section. For the second course, the majorityof the sections have up to four projects- one for each four-student team.These

It is also necessary toprovide students with this comprehensive background through existing and new elective coursesusing limited faculty resources.
