a) The weight of the new chassis is still heavier than the original fuel cell car, which reduces run time. b) The fuel cell car`s maneuverability is limited by the size of the chassis and the type and number of sensors. c) Running time is still short (2 minute approximately) so it would be beneficial to increase this. d) New fuel cell car requires twice as much fuel in order to maintain original run times.The case activities, course concepts and report due dates were planned for five stages,summarized in Table 2. Ultimately, the students recommended design improvements for the nextversion of the chassis based on the case activity results. Students worked in teams of five andcompleted

The main assumption is that the same framework used by an industryis adjustable for all kind of organization, including higher education institutions.

Recognizing and acknowledging that a “monoculture” is embeddeddeeply in the engineering education system may not be easy for those of us who are engineeringeducators and researchers. McIntosh points out that such a monoculture mirrors that of the USsocial system, not merely by what she calls “active forms” of interlocking oppressions, but moredeeply—in embedded forms—forms which “member[s] of the dominant group are taught not tosee”9

Therefore, future studies regarding student motivationsystems or other psychological factors are in need to explore factors that facilitate or impedestudents to transfer to a four-year engineering institution and factors that facilitate or impedetheir subsequent success at the four-year institutions. Third, time to graduation was consideredonly at the final degree granting institution. Therefore, further exploration about the amount oftime that transfer students have spent at their initial institution(s) is necessary in order to accountfor total time to graduation. Fourth, some factors that could be investigated here are the slope ofhow fast they graduate from the degree granting institution which is an indicator oftransferability of courses that

is more value in gaining such information by exploring these researchvenues. Research which is conducted by visiting the site is known as field research2. It consist ofparticipant observation, interviews and document analysis as seen in figure 17. Field research canbe very exciting and rewarding and at the same time extremely overwhelming. It is important toknow what kind of information needs to be collected at the time of such research. Since the fieldis full of stories and actions, one can easily become lost in the scenario, hence having a biggerpicture and focusing on the specific research question(s) is a very important component of thefield study2.
