chemical engineering instruction begins in the first year of engineeringeducation, whereas at his US home institution, lab instruction typically does not begin until thesecond semester of the third year of the four-year undergraduate plan. In addition, CPE practical lab experience related to the lecture-based class is incorporatedinto each core French chemical engineering class, from transport phenomena and separationprocesses to chemical kinetics and reactors. At US NCSU, on the other hand, these core classesinclude no practical component; instead, all practical experience is received later in twoexclusively lab-based junior/senior courses. With plenty of hands-on instruction and analysis guided by a professor, he found performingthe

The problem will be given to students in thecurrent spring semester course, with an assessment implemented to evaluate the learning impactof this problem. The format of the assessment will be as follows.

Fifth, the students were alsoasked to develop cardboard chairs for their final team project. Students work together in teamsto develop the chairs and then present their chair to the class. This project was designed to helpstudents improve their engineering performance/competence, interest, creativity, and designefficacy. Lastly, students were required to complete weekly homework assignments where theypersonally reflect on topics such as their engineering interests, study plan, and any barriers theycan foresee that might prevent them from becoming an engineer.

For example, if lack of awareness is the greatest issue preventing studentsfrom participating in URE, then steps to remediate this can be taken, such as the need forgreater publicizing of campus research opportunities.

The automated car concept was evolved truly in 1980s with Carnegie Melon University’sNavLab and ALV projects which resulted in ALVINN which used a neural network to drive [8].The automotive industries are conducting significant research and development efforts in thearea of autonomous vehicles. The major automotive companies like Toyota, Ford, MercedesBenz, BMW, Volvo have announced their plans for creating an autonomous car.

We also build flexibilityinto the curriculum, incorporating student ideas whenever possible. For example, after workingon the moon weight calculator program, a student said “I wonder if we could use the same ideato come up with a sentencing calculator?”. The sentencing calculator involved accepting as input(a) an initial sentence duaration, (b) eligibility for “half time” and (c) if you were good and gotyour 10% “kick”.

When instructors and students come from different culturalbackgrounds, planned efforts to cross social borders and develop caring, respectful relationshipsare essential. From the very first day of school, teachers can set the tone by greeting students atthe door with a smile and a warm, welcoming comment. Greeting second language learners witha phrase in their native language can be especially affirming. Teachers can also forge positiverelationships with students by sharing stories about their lives outside of school, learning aboutstudents’ interests and activities, inviting them to make choices and decisions about classactivities, and listening to their concerns and opinions.In addition to establishing
