Then, our plan of how to apply this approach in a classroom setting is laid out withsome discussion of lessons learned from using similar but longer exercises in a lab setting.Finally, we give examples of the type of hardware that will be used and the type of worksheetsthat could be used in concert with the hardware.Introduction:This paper reports on the status of work being done to develop classroom exercises to helpstudents better

defined as “the extent towhich one intends to engage in an activity”4. The choice or the decision to continue doing an activity,for example, is the result of someone’s motivation of doing that activity. Motivation has been exploredin relation to academic performance and career plans. Jones et al. studied the relationship amongexpectancies, values, achievement, and career plans for first year engineering students. They found thatstudents’ expectancy and value related beliefs decreased over the first year3 thus negatively influencingstudents’ retention into the second year of an engineering program. Predicting students’ intention tocontinue within engineering is complex, and the factors associated to this decision are not wellunderstood; however

A case study approach isused to take the courses of an Industrial Engineering Technology program, and develop an as-iscurriculum map. After that, a gap analysis is performed against the four pillars of manufacturingknowledge. The gap analysis is used to suggest modifications to the Industrial EngineeringTechnology curriculum, including addition of

According to data collected by the National Science Foundation, from 2002-2012 roughly 40% of doctoral degrees in STEM fields were conferred to women, yet in 2010,women accounted for only 27% of tenure-track assistant professorships in engineering.2 Thislowered representation of women in upper divisions of academia is not due to a lack of interest.The Royal Society of Chemistry in London found in a 2006 survey that 70% of first year femalestudents planned to be in a research career, yet only 37% had that goal by their third

Dewey describedlearning as a process of participating in an activity, reflecting on that experience and later usingthe conclusions when doing other activities.3 Lewin, a social psychologist, believed that thechallenge of modern education was how to implement “concrete experience” based on Dewey’sprocess.4 Kolb unified the process in 1984 as the “Experiential Learning Cycle”, which connectsthe four actions of learning.4 Kolb’s cycle depicts experience explained by reflection, reflectioncreating new concepts, and new concepts used to plan new experiences.
