2019 class of Mechanical Engineering Design at Chico State, a hands-on semesterproject titled Electric Ceiling Hoist was facilitated through the weekly two-hour activity time.The assignment and outcomes of this project are the focus of this paper and a detailed account ispresented herein. For the first five weeks of the semester, the two-hour weekly activities wereindividual assignments that focused on component design, report writing, and utilizing softwaresuch as excel or Matlab. These assignments paralleled the lecture and stepped up in difficultyand requirements. The last of these individual assignments was a paper design for a simplifiedversion of the semester project. The motivation here was that every student must conduct theprescribed

that engages students in team-based, socially relevant projects. While at Texas A&M University Imbrie co-led the design of a 525,000 square foot state-of-the-art engineering education focused facility; the largest educational building in the state. His expertise in educational pedagogy, student learning, and teaching has impacted thousands of students at the universities for which he has been associated. Imbrie is nationally recognized for his work in ac- tive/collaborative learning pedagogies, teaming and student success modeling. His engineering education leadership has produced fundamental changes in the way students are educated around the world. Imbrie has been a member of ASEE since 2000 and has been

Adopting the new outcomesrequired program coordinators to review and update their assessment plans in order to ensureefficient and effective assessment. The new implementations provided clarification for some ofthe outcomes that previously had been vague and difficult to measure. For example, outcome3(d) “ability to function on multidisciplinary teams” was revised into its new 3(5) outcome “anability to function effectively on a team whose members, together, provide leadership, create

Improvements insemiconductor technology have in turn enabled remarkable improvements in communication andinformation technology, leading to major changes in the way people communicate, compute,acquire and use information, and seek entertainment.This paper describes a First-Year Seminar taught in 2017 and 2019 in which students from arange of different majors explore the history and societal impact of semiconductor and relatedtechnologies throughout the semiconductor era. The goals of the seminar are to provide studentswith a qualitative understanding of how semiconductors are designed and manufactured, anappreciation for how the technology
