This represents the first step in what will be a semester-long, cross-major project that draws on the strengths and knowledge of both majors.RationaleThis article describes the successful partnering of students from an engineering design class withstudents from an early childhood social studies methods course. Students were tasked withdesigning an interactive and open-ended museum quality exhibit for children that could beinstalled in a local informal learning setting. The project, which capitalized on the contentexpertise of both groups of students, demonstrates the value of fostering

This project was funded by a generous grant from W. M. Keck Foundation. This paper highlights the motivation behind this initiative, discusses the proposed plan ofaction, and presents initial results and observations from a pilot implementation of this initiative,specifically focusing on the curricular enhancement aspect of the project.

But, from the author’s experience, with proper planning, this approach hadactually made the learning as well as the teaching process more efficient and easier. It wasobserved that the students were very enthusiastic and fully engaged during both the workshopand classroom sessions compared to the lecture only approach.Technical educators today are required to help learners acquire both soft and hard skills to meetthe industry needs and expectations. More than 50% of the students enrolled in MechanicalEngineering program were sponsored by local industries and the students are expected to bereadily employable upon graduation.

It is noted that the instructional coach was not a workshop facilitator and had no priorrelations with these faculty members.Consequently, this study had two research objectives. The first was to determine the effects ofparticipating in the professional development. This first purpose was a planned objective fromthe outset of designing the IUSE professional development program. The second purpose was todetermine the effects of receiving coaching, in the context of ongoing professional development,on instructional practices, as measured by the RTOP. This second objective was not originallyplanned but emerged when it was noted that faculty members were requesting feedback and

This course would be one of thefirst mechanical engineering courses required by the university that is not considered part ofthe general education curriculum. The purpose of this study is to track the effects of HIPs withcarefully planned pedagogies that would provide numerous benefits for the students, such asoverall increased learning gains and graduation rates. There are seven HIPs characteristicsused to measure the results at the end of the semester: these are (1) interaction with faculty, (2)interaction with peers, (3) feedback from instructor, (4) quality time spent on the course

Team size from 3 to 4 in the Fall increases to 6 to 8 in theSpring. In the Fall semester, the students are primarily working on gathering the requirementsand developing initial concepts, thus smaller teams of 3 to 4 are sufficient for this semester. Inthe spring semester, however, the students start prototyping, building proof of concepts andultimately fabricating the alpha and beta prototypes, thus the increase in team size in the Spring.This also allows the students to apply project management course work to the

These programs are kept outside the purview of university system.Often they are called Licentiate in Civil Engineering (LCE) or Licentiate in MechanicalEngineering (LME) or licentiate in other disciplines of engineering. A diploma course inengineering involves classes on fundamental engineering concepts. It is a professional course,planned in such a way that students may still take up jobs in the field of engineering once theyearn their diplomas. It can allow them to transfer into the second year of the B.Tech. or B.E.course. This, in effect, means the student may not have to take the eleventh and twelfth classexams. So

Its growth as a field of study and as astandard of practice is understandable in light of concerns about dwindling resources, populationand developmental growth, and environmental sensitivity based on global warming and othernatural phenomena.

This form of virtual office hours is also held regularly twice a week, ratherthan as a form of test prep, such as those held by Patrick Lowenthal. Happy Hours are also a mixof pre-planned problems and student guided questions. Prior to the Happy Hour, the instructorsends out a set of problems to all students in the course so that students can view and startworking on the problems before the meeting.
