ConclusionThe IR-SEED REU site supported by the National Science Foundation's Division of EngineeringEducation and Centers is designed to develop and implement a model environment formultidisciplinary collaborative efforts where research and education are tightly integrated aroundthe different facets of energy research. The IR-SEED REU site is structured to teach studentshow to formulate research questions as well as how to develop and modify research plans
particularlydeveloped for concept mapping and can be downloaded online at http://cmap.ihmc.us. With thissoftware, students could easily create, edit, and modify digital concept maps.Throughout the 16-week semester, students learned eight topics, corresponding to eight textbookchapters, in Engineering Dynamics [14]. Four topics were on particle dynamics, and the otherfour on rigid-body dynamics. After the teaching and learning of a topic was completed, eachstudent developed a concept map for the topic. Students were provided three to five days toconstruct their concept maps after class. At the end of the semester, each student had created atotal of eight concept maps covering eight topics.Questionnaire surveyAt the end of the semester, a questionnaire survey

Inthe first NanoCORE project, we focused on introducing nanoscale science and engineering intothe undergraduate curriculum through short teaching units, which we refer to as “nanomodules,”within existing courses. Students also had opportunities for more in-depth nanotechnologytraining by enrolling in technical electives and participating in undergraduate research. Theprogram has made a noteworthy impact on our undergraduate educational content andexperience.2 With the NanoCORE II project, we have extended the program by expandingstudent-learning opportunities to include additional hands-on and laboratory activities.

. found that students in a non-traditional, problem-based learning environment, where they worked with real-life examples, hadmore advanced goal orientation, task value, use of learning strategies, critical thinking, self-regulation, effort, and peer learning, when compared to the control-group of students who weretaught in a traditional, textbook-oriented setting. Academics have gradually shifted from ateacher-oriented approach to a student-oriented approach, encouraging more independentlearning or self-regulated learning. How students become motivated and independent learnersrelies heavily on how the classroom and teaching is structured.14 Self-regulated learning is aform on non-traditional education that allows the student to take control of
