]. While this decision is reasonable from an operational andresource management perspective, research on large classes have shown that students sufferdecreased academic engagement, motivation and achievement [3]–[5] . Instructors, on the otherhand, report having difficulty establishing rapport with their students and a growing inability tomonitor students’ learning gains and provide quality individualized feedback [4]–[6]. To addressthese issues, our project draws from Lattuca and Stark’s Academic Plan model [9], whichincorporates a thorough consideration of factors influencing curricular activities that can beapplied at the course, program, and institutional levels, and assumes that instructors are keyactors in curriculum development and revision

c American Society for Engineering Education, 2018 Using Lean Principles to Improve an Engineering Technology Assessment ProcessIntroductionA commitment to quality engineering technology education requires a well-defined process ofcontinuous improvement, as well as a commitment to maintenance and management of that plan.According to Juran [1], managing for quality requires three components: 1. Planning - to determine and understand who the customers are and how to respond to their needs with appropriate processes. 2. Control - to evaluate how well the processes are meeting those needs, as well as providing feedback to all constituents 3. Improvement - to maintain and further improve the

Unfortunately, adjuncts are marginalized by the academicsystems in place today; and their contributions to the academic process are undervalued. Next,the paper reports on the success story of an adjunct, a practitioner with good credentials, who“teamed-up” with a “full-time” faculty, in an attempt to bring the practice to 4 thyear students in ageotechnical/ foundation engineering class. The success achieved in meeting course objectives,as a result of practitioner’s role, was attributed, in large measure, to proper planning andcoordination that preceded course delivery.

. Our analysis of these failures showed two majorproblems. First, students do not have experience with how things are made. So, they areunable to produce the detailed designs required by a waterfall planning scheme. Second,they are afraid to start building subsystems, so they delay building until the last moment.This leaves student teams without time to fix failures, revise their plans, and integrate com-ponents. So, we chose to utilize an agile project management technique used extensively inthe software industry. We implemented a variant of scrum project planning, which is basedon starting with a top-level design, start to build subsystems for that design, and modifyyour design as you learn. It is a structured and supervised try–fail–fix

The country has an estimated annualGDP per capita of USD 5293. However, it is worth noting that from 1980-1990 Namibia had aGDP per capita which was higher than that of both China and Thailand. But, over the interveningtime both countries’ rate of economic growth have greatly exceeded Namibia’s and, as a result,Namibia’s GDP per capita ratio is currently much smaller than either of those two countries(National Planning Commission, 2012).Despite this disparity in economic growth rates, the country is slowly emerging from thecompounding

Students were asked to indicate frequency oftypes of interactions with faculty (e.g., discuss plan of study; discuss future career plans)and extent to which they experienced negative attitudes from faculty. Engineering self-efficacy (e.g., succeed in engineering curriculum; excel in engineering major) was assessedusing items from a published instrument on engineering self-efficacy, and the scaledemonstrated internal consistency. Overall, students who reported more frequentinteractions with faculty (more than once), and lower perceived negative attitudes fromfaculty indicated higher levels of engineering self-efficacy.

We draw onHenderson’s theoretical models of Institutional Change in higher education to clarify the chosenapproach to transformation. We also draw on a complex systems perspective as a guidingphilosophy to conceptualize change in the interconnected human, institutional, and socialstructures of our engineering college, and on boundary spanning to address the

Studentswere challenged to wrestle with what it means for something to be pro-social.

Data sources included program records, interviews, and asurvey. All trainees who participated in the program since it began in 2009 were sampled.An externship, when well-planned, afforded the trainees the experience of executing a study withsignificant independence. In doing so, participants learned to direct their work, further theirresearch, and achieve project deliverables. Trainees were very confident in conducting research,especially

While the diversity of 4-year universities has remained stagnant, the diversity ofcommunity college student populations is actually increasing. Therefore, community collegesrepresent a potential source of talent for future engineers from diverse backgrounds.
