multidisciplinary teams to convert customer needs to commercially viable products and services. Rogers co-led the development of an ABET-approved year-long Capstone design experience. With a focus on providing students with a broader experience base, the multidisciplinary program applies teams of engineers, business, design, and other students to work with companies to help them be more competitive. Rogers expanded this one-year program to a four-year Integrated Business and Engineering (IBE) honors program. Rogers earned his Ph.D. at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, focused on mechanical engineering and manufacturingDr. Denny C.

, consistent student teams or groups as implemented here, may contribute tothe social integration of first-year students. However, this is dependent on the formation ofeffective student teams which may involve more thought on the part of the instructor. There are limitations of the active learning implementation method and this assessmentstudy that should be noted. Specifically, the addition of in-class collaborative learning activitieswithout any out-of-class videos to offset instructional content necessitated a slight reduction inthe level of detail covered during lectures. Due to the structure of the curriculum in the School ofBiomedical Engineering, this reduction is not expected to have any effect on future studentsuccess in the program

,characterized stage two. Stage three: the stage of pondering and deliberations,which has lingered on for a long time, is characterized by calls from industries,engineering graduates, and invited experts, for more rounded engineers with the skillsand abilities to function in a modern business climate. Unfortunately, the response tothese calls has been slow. The “piece meal” approach and/or periodic adjustments toan already over-burdened curriculum, in an attempt to meet a broad set of demands,have not been effective in meeting objectives, and have convinced many stakeholdersthat the time has come for a radical departure from the traditional layered andsequential structure that has prevailed for decades. There are clearly significantchallenges ahead

Thesepresentations were designed to provide a background on some of the broadening participationchallenges we were interested in addressing. In addition, since many of the attendees wereinvolved in informal learning, examples of results from two large initiatives were provided. Thepre-workshop survey indicated that almost 60% of workshop attendees were new to networkedimprovement communities, thus they were provided with some webinars that were developed forNSF INCLUDES Launch Pilots (www.includescenter.org).Once at the workshop, participants spent time developing a preliminary driver diagram (Figure2) and defining next steps for the NIC.

As the push foronline educational opportunities continues to grow and the demand for quality increases, WPIhas invested in instructional design resources to help develop online courses through acollaborative design model, moving away from instructors developing their coursesautonomously and in seclusion. Adopting a collaborative course design model requires a culturalshift for faculty in how they approach their course design and facilitation processes.
