learning environment and “real"environment, and making available training of “real world” situations that are difficult tosimulate in a hands-on lab environment. Traditionally for teaching technology-based courses,laboratory experiments were offered using a hands-on approach. With the miniaturization ofintegrated circuits, it is becoming very difficult to construct a PC board or assemble surfacemount chips in a lab environment. This shortcoming of the hands-on approach has led professorsand teachers to incorporate simulation in place of hands-on in technology-based lab courses. Page 24.701.2 In spite of the advantages of simulations, hands
[2] including case studies in the unit operations laboratory course [3] or thechemical reaction engineering course [4]. The most common approach has been to incorporatelearning modules on ethics in the context of process safety [5]. The way in which process safetyis taught to students depends on the department (and university), with some schools having adedicated process safety course while others teach it as part of the senior design course. Teachingstudents about the concepts of ethical decision making in the context of process safety makes sensefrom an educational perspective, in part, due to the ongoing efforts to instill a culture of safety inall young chemical engineers [5]. Through informal discussions with students, the

in a pair of looselyconnected undergraduate Aerospace Engineering courses that integrate teaching and research.The first one-third of each course is devoted to conventional lectures and/or laboratory exerciseswith computer interfaced data acquisition systems. The latter two-thirds focus on design andresearch projects in Aerospace Engineering with a few lectures interspersed. The teachingmethod has some unique characteristics: i) Undergraduates gain a research experience byworking in small groups of two or three students supervised by a volunteer graduate studentresearch mentor, ii) The particular research project is developed by the course instructors and thevolunteer graduate student research mentor in advance of the course as one related
accumulated knowledge may not favor just superposing theadditional knowledge to previous acquired knowledge. Furthermore, just adding security onexciting embedded systems is almost impossible. Therefore, there is a need for structural designof curriculum, which focuses security concepts on embedded systems design.This curriculum recognizes several challenges for effective undergraduate education of securityconcepts in Embedded Systems. These challenges include laboratory existing tools, classroom,and laboratory activities, and teaching large numbers of students from diverse backgrounds. Infact, we, like many embedded systems instructors, have noticed an increase in students’ interest inembedded systems design from various disciplines, especially

The core modules includetheoretical and practical engineering pedagogy as well as laboratory methodology. The theorymodules include psychology, sociology, ethics, and intercultural competencies. The practicemodules consists of oral communication skills, scientific
) simulation sickness –through three symptoms nausea, oculomotor disturbance, and disorientation, 2) VR SystemsUsability – through comfort and ease of use, and 3) User Experience – through involvement,immersion, visual fidelity, interface quality, and sound. Simulation sickness analysis showed thatthe current VR teaching modules need some adjustments. The analysis of the systems usabilityand user experience of the module were found to be acceptable. In phase III of the research, wewill improve the VR module to make a full self-paced tutorial where the instructor’s role will bemore facilitator than an instructor.References[1] B. Dalgarno, A. G.

Students liked much about the approach, finding the student instructors“personable”, “friendly”, and “approachable”, but students also found the student instructorsamateurish and inexperienced, making comments related to unpreparedness, disorganization, andunclear expectations. Suggestions included having the professor lead the course and having thestudent instructors as secondary instructors. The model in this paper differs from the Kendall andWilliams model in that the professor remains the main instructor and only about one-fourth ofthe lectures are delegated to students with the professor providing oversight and collaboration.Bailey [2] used a peer-teaching pedagogy in a laboratory course.

-long Saturday training session: Teaching in a Laboratory, Effective Grading,Office Hours & Tutoring, Leading a Recitation, and The Wired Course (using technology in theclassroom). Training is completed with a small-group videotaping session in which TAs present a5-7 minute lecturette to an audience of three other TAs and a TA Fellow, and give constructivefeedback on each other’s videotaped presentation. Each workshop is 2-2.5 hours in length.Workshop size ranges from 15-35 TAs to one co-facilitation team (2 TA Fellows).3The multicultural awareness workshop—Teaching in a Diverse Classroom-- has been a keycomponent of the training of new engineering TAs since 1993.
