13.873.1© American Society for Engineering Education, 2008 Matriculating Nuclear Engineering Students – The North Carolina State University Case Lisa Marshall and Mohamed Bourham Department of Nuclear Engineering at North Carolina State UniversityAbstractFirst-year nuclear engineering students typically complete a common freshman year thatdoes not include courses(s) in nuclear engineering. How then does a department engagestudents who have expressed their intent to major in nuclear engineering but haven’tmatriculated into the discipline as of yet? Through an analysis of matriculation trends anda survey of current nuclear engineering students, we will report on why students choosenuclear

While accomplishing the mission of relieving some of the faculty’s teachingload, GTAs face a wide variety of responsibilities[1, 2].

Literature indicates that training courses are helpful to shape GTAsperceptions about their instructional roles.

We then turned the antenna to face theTech Center. Using our antenna we were able to pick up 8 access points with 4 of themhaving a signal to noise ratio (S/N) greater than or equal to 20 dB (a threshold requiredfor proper access). We then replaced the large cantenna with a smaller one and we werethen able to pick up 7 access points with 2 of them having S/N ratio that is greater thanthe threshold.

Experiential Learning: A Handbook of Best Practice for Educators andTrainers: This type of learning occurs when students participate in some activity, reflect upon the activity, use their analytical skills to derive some useful insight from the experience, and then incorporate their new understanding(s) into their daily lives. What experiential learning does best is capture the interest and involvement of the participants, but most importantly it contributes significantly to the transfer of learning.Instructional InterventionTo implement EL learning in a degree program, faculty need to be made aware of theexperiential criteria so they can design an appropriate and effective EL course.

So, a student’s internal drive for learning can be strengthened byenhancing any one of the three internal constructs. As an example, if a student is moreinterested in a topic, they have a greater motivation to learn which has been shown tolead to a greater exercise of autonomous actions to engage in learning12. Theserelationships work in the reverse direction as well.
