computer-based imaging or imageprocessing aspects were used on as-needed basis for senior capstone projects.With the approval of the curriculum committee, an undergraduate course with thetitle “Applied Computer Vision for Sensing and Automation” was approved to beoffered as an experimental course at 4xxx (senior) level. The course was designedas a three-credit hour course in a sixteen–week semester based system. Thecourse consisted of two lecture classes (each for 50 minutes) and one two-hourlaboratory component. This course initially required prior experience withcomputer programming and prerequisite of a sophomore level mathematics class.This course was offered as a technical elective.This course was initially offered in Fall 2014.

At the University of Cape Town (UCT) in South Africa,the design of the new chemical engineering curriculum drew on contemporary shifts inthinking about the engineering profession [1, 2], as well as a focus on widening access to thedegree and coupling this with success. Furthermore, engaging with current deliberations onthe problem-based curriculum, this design took on a problem-centered focus [3].

The results allow for the characterization of the sample'sperception regarding incorporating gender perspectives into their engineering educationprograms.

IRK+B provides an instructor with a conceptualframework to understand and evaluate (using Bloom’s taxonomy) where a learner is today andwhere he/she needs to be in future and thereby determine the scaffolds (using Kolb’s experientiallearning) a learner would need in attaining the goal.

. Czekanski et al. studiedthe challenges in engineering education from both educators' and industrials points of view. Theyproposed a vertical and lateral method based on incorporating the strength of existingeducational systems and integrating them with fundamental engineering core courses. From theirstudy, they found that the use of this proposed vertical and lateral learning method can narrowthe gap between academic, industrial, and students' expectations. Their study was based on afour-year curriculum though and it did not zoom on the challenges of the individual courses [16].The question remains how to deliver an educational environment where engineering studentsgraduate with a good comprehension of general engineering design skills, practical
