students’ creativity ingenerating ideas within the context of design problems, an assessment more directlyfocused on the idea generation phase of the design process would be more suitable forour research. We plan to use a set of idea generation problems which have been usedsuccessfully in the past to measure outcomes related to creativity in idea generation.In future work, student ideation artifacts and projects will also be examined through thelens of the MPCA(18). Even though the metric requires raters and does not exhibit highreliability, the fact that the metric is broken down by function may allow us to better tracethe source(s) of a high or low creativity score than could be determined from a single,simple rating.A variety of research tools

opportunities for undergraduate laboratory instructionAbstract:This paper outlines a two-semester senior engineering design project that was carried out tostudy a moderately well-defined chemical reaction involving sodium borohydride in aqueousconditions to generate hydrogen for fuel cell applications. Sodium borohydride hydrolysis hasbeen studied extensively since the early 1940’s as a promising hydrogen storage material, whichprovides a content-rich study area for engineering design coursework and undergraduatelaboratory experiences related to energy, hydrogen, and energy storage potential. Throughout thetwo-semester project design course, a two-student engineering team carried out literature reviewsand bench work that lead them to investigate

globally focused experiences outscored those who did not.Notably, the mean EGPI score of students who reported study abroad was significantly higherthan that of those who did not study abroad. In contrast, participation in second-languagecourses, projects or internships abroad, or having an international roommate did not reveal astatistically significant difference in students’ EGPI or GPI performance.Stepwise regression analysis was used to determine potential relationships among studentexperiences and their global preparedness. The regression results indicated that the combinationof such experiences including engineering focused service learning, study abroad, and non-engineering course(s) with a global focus accounted for approximately 12% of

As students review each other‟s screencasts, their own thinking and metacognition will be re-evaluated from another learner‟s perspective who is not necessarily a teacher or a textbookauthor. Learning from peers is more authentic and more sustainable than learning from atextbook or from a teacher17. In addition, receiving peers‟ comments on their own screencastadds to these metacognitive items that will eventually help improve their CAD knowledge andskills. In this National Science Foundation (NSF) project, two mechanical engineering faculty andtwo learning scientists have collaborated to implement a student-centered instructional strategy,namely peer-generated screencast strategy in teaching CAD in the undergraduate

In 2015, out of nearly two-millionbachelor’s degrees earned; less than one-hundred thousand were in engineering (5.2%)(NSB Appendix Table 2-21 [2]). “We are graduating fewer engineers now than 20 years ago,both in terms of absolute numbers and as a percentage of all college degrees” [3].

For example,African-Americans’ labor force participation rate increased from 60% in 1973 to 64% in 2005while Hispanics’ participation rate increased from 60% to 68% for the same years27. The U.S.Department of Labor reported in 2001 that women and minorities now comprise 60% of the U.S.workforce – a shift consistent with the prediction made by the Hudson Institute in 198718,41.These population changes and growing concerns about American competitiveness reinvigoratedan interest in “diversity,” particularly in science and engineering (S&E).

In 1970, Billy Koenpublished the first Engineering PSI journal article in ASEE’s Engineering Education. Over thenext 9 years, Engineering Education published 23 additional PSI journal articles and notes,again trailing off into a handful of papers during the 1980’s. Similar patterns can be found inother engineering education journals such as IEEE Transactions on Education, and ChemicalEngineering Education.The PSI literature presents an overwhelmingly positive picture of a transformational teachingmethod.
