For instance, the answer to onequestion regarding assumptions for an air tank purging question was: “Assumptions: Shape of tank, Location of valves: hot air input top right, cold air output left bottom. It has quantitative temperatures. We have five temperature measuring devices throughout the tank. One at input, output, and three inside. Plan: Create a flow control valve on input and output. Use the flow control valves to regulate input and output volume. We have reached our equilibrium when the output temperature is the same as the input temperature

The objective of the PSH’sIndustry Mentoring Program is to create a mutually beneficial connection between industrymentors and current STEM students at PSH1, especially with students near graduation. Typically,industry mentors present mentees with a range of options in terms of networking, jobopportunities, and professional development. Most the industry mentors were invited to NSFSTEM meeting sessions, where they gave short presentations, followed by engaging studentsthrough a dialogue and networking opportunities.

The instructor observedthat a disconnect exists in his course between learning about the various project managementtools and techniques and how these are applied in engineering technology professions underconstraints such as cost, quality, safety, etc. Although the students learn how to create schedules,budgets, and risk management plans, they never learn if these management plans work becausethey don't get the opportunity to implement them. This type of exercise could be described ashalf learning. In order to close this gap, an innovative instructional module based on ProjectBased Virtual Simulation Tool was developed and implemented.

This study discusses the assessment of metacognitive skills in engineering students byhaving the students participate in hands-on and virtual reality activities related to design andmanufacturing. The study is guided by two research questions: (1) do the proposed activities affectstudents’ metacognition in terms of monitoring, awareness, planning, self-checking, or strategyselection, and (2) are there other components of metacognition that are affected by the design andmanufacturing activities? The hypothesis is that the participation in the proposed activities willimprove problem-solving skills and metacognitive awareness of the

The paper’s objective is toanswer that question in part by highlighting the role played by proposed changes to the civilengineering knowledge framework, specifically, ASCE’s Civil Engineering Body of Knowledge(BOK) as it undergoes revision for a Third Edition.Knowledge may be the most strategically significant resource the profession can possess.
