construction industry. However, in today’sdynamic landscape, the incorporation of new technologies, sustainability considerations, andevolving managerial demands has increased the complexity of construction projects, bothtechnically and managerially. Consequently, the current construction industry places a premiumon the critical thinking and problem-solving abilities of recent graduates. Regrettably, asobserved in various professional fields, CEM programs have faced challenges in producinggraduates equipped with the necessary problem-solving and critical thinking skills. To addressthis issue, the authors propose the development of a novel senior capstone course using ascenario-based learning approach. The authors’ program is still in the process of

Essentialexperiential elements of each course were observed, with the researchers observing small groupsof students in the context of their projects (e.g., capstone for EDII, school outreach for SL).These observations triangulate the analysis of innovative teaching practices through studentlearning outcomes.Findings Six generative processing strategies were present in the experiential learning courses (seeTable 1) particularly through the course design in both EDII and SL. Both courses were found tobe rooted in contextual generative learning, particularly learning by teaching and enacting,considered the most high-leverage generative processes [3].

During this project, students are askedto design a safe and lightweight linkage that will allow the landing gear to safely and slowlyretract from a vertical position to a nearly horizontal one without breaking or stretching more than10% of its original length. This project is introduced at the halfway point of the 10-week term, atwhich point students are familiar with the 2D equilibrium of rigid bodies and the concepts

. Educational Setting and ParticipantsThe study was conducted at a large, public, urban, Midwestern R1 institution. In the engineeringcurriculum for the first year, students take two 3-credit hour courses over two semesters. Eachcourse is structured around providing students with significant design experience. Students arerequired to actively participate in team-based projects in addition to engaging in differentfundamental content areas such as design process, ethics, algorithmic thinking, modeling,statistics, statics, and electricity. At the start of each semester, student teams of three or fourmembers are formed by the teaching team, considering factors such as prior experiences,knowledge, and demographics.This research investigated the relationship

implementedthe survey in a first-year and in senior courses for the purpose of validating items using factoranalysis. Following this, we conducted analysis of survey and interview data restricted to thefirst-year course, including epistemic beliefs and analysis of students’ agency.Through exploratory factor analysis, we found that factors did not converge around constructs asdescribed in the literature. Rather, factors formed around the forms of information leveraged todevelop requirements. Through qualitative analysis of students’ responses on the survey and tointerviews, we evaluated the extent to which students expressed agency over their use ofrequirements to make decisions within a course project. We describe implications of thisexploratory study

Role-play scenarios are a useful way to depict the complexities of being an ethicalengineer. RPSs allow for introducing relevant topics to students through case studies that theycan explore on a deeper level [12]–[14]. RPSs do this by helping students situate themselves inscenarios through character roles. As the scenarios are developed for the learning environment,they let RPS administrators take a fictive approach to discuss topics of interest

Native American Engineering StudentsABSTRACTEngineering students have limited opportunities for experiential learning, especially at TribalColleges and Universities, where engineering programs tend to be small, and resources areextremely limited. Typically, the first and senior years of a student's engineering educationjourney are infused with hands-on projects and capstone courses. However, the sophomore andjunior years generally need more opportunities for active learning, gaining professional skills,and developing a sense of professional practice. Also, scholars have increasingly realized thatarts subjects help students understand connections between different disciplines from acomprehensive perspective.This study highlights findings from

Rather than create an entirelynew textbook, OER statics and physics textbooks were adapted. A research student was hired inthe fall of 2020 to support the creation of the OER, using the Pressbooks platform.

Course  AbstractThis paper presents the authors’ experience in introducing the Aspen Plus software to supportstudents in understanding various types of thermofluid cycles for an undergraduate mechanicalengineering thermofluids course. In most thermodynamics/thermofluids courses, students areasked to analyze thermofluid systems using a combination of steam tables or the ideal gas lawequations. However, in industry, an engineer would be expected to use a process simulator tosimulate thermofluid cycles. The main motivation of this project was to familiarize students withsuch software. Students were assigned to work in groups of two to analyze three different typesof thermofluid cycles; Rankine cycles
