. Generally such Introduction to Engineering courses do not have significantconstituencies of undecided students exploring engineering as a career option. This is regrettablebecause it has been shown that non-engineers have a high interest in understanding how thingswork and in having a more empowered relationship with technology [1]. Lack of an appealinggateway course could be partly responsible for the lack of gender and ethnic diversity inengineering.Method:To develop an Introduction to Engineering course that can meet the needs ofundergraduates with varying degrees of commitment to engineering an approach was developedthat focuses on the nature of technological systems and the various processes utilized by

approach in a multi-disciplinary settingAbstract:This workshop integrates an Active Collaborative Learning (ACL) approach to classmanagement with ideation techniques. Participants will have a hands-on experience, acting asstudents in a “train the trainer” format. Three topics will be introduced: 1) The Gallery Walkmethod, 2) Problem Decomposition, and 3) The Brainsketching ideation technique. A briefpreview of next steps will be presented as well.Workshop OverviewThe five step process covered in the workshop will allow participants to experience and ACLapproach successfully used with freshman engineering students. Participants will be divided intoteams of four or five to engage in the workshop activities. In Step 1, each team will be given“bugs

Learning in Engineering EducationGames and gamification implementations can be very powerful experiential learningopportunities for students that connect their time in play back to course material. The use ofgames within engineering classes has steadily increased, as evidenced by increasing numbers ofpublications on their implementation and effectiveness [1]. Games within engineering classescan include classroom games (board, card, and live action), digital games, and gamificationelements. However, there are still many faculty that aren’t aware of this pedagogy. Thisworkshop paper will provide an overview of what defines a game, how has game-based learningbeen applied within engineering and the process for connecting

timescales of retransmission timeout (RTO) where the minimumrecommend RTO is 1 second. Attacke consists of periodic “on-off bursts” exploiting thehomogeneity of the TCP’s RTO mechanism. Attackers send burst packets to overflow user’srouter queue and it causes packet loss, so users enter RTT. Attacks continue sending packets tomake the TCP enters the RTO so that they can occupy a server. Consequently, TCP source willback off to recover from the congestion and retransmit only after one RTO. Attacks are a largenumber of compromised machines involved in attack and approach low-rate transmission ofpackets towards to occupy nodes. When such a burst attack arrives at the bottleneck link, TCPsenders stop transmitting packets and enter timeout state due to

Students were then placed in one of three categories basedon their test scores: Spatial Novice, Spatial Intermediate, and Spatial Master. A different pointvalue was associated with each category, as shown in Table 1, with a maximum of five pointstranslating to full credit for the 5% of the semester course grade as suggested by Segil et al.10

IntroductionThe field of prosthetics focuses on the development of artificial limbs to help restore functionalityto persons who have lost or are missing one or more limbs. Early prosthetics made use of wood,copper, iron, and steel, but had limited functionality. At present, modern technology, such as 3Dprinting and connected devices, can be used to produce advanced prosthetic limbs. Nearly twomillion amputees are living in the US, and 54% of them has vascular diseases including diabetesand peripheral arterial disease [1]. Patients in this category can see benefits from the applicationof connected devices to the area of healthcare devices. These benefits may include the

Evidence of the increasingacceptance includes the creation of the ASEE Community Engagement Division. While thereare many examples of success, most are driven by individual faculty or small groups and thereare few examples of large scale implementation of engagement. For community engagement toachieve its potential, models that can be replicated or adapted and integrated into the fabric of theinstitutions must be developed. There is still skepticism about service-learning as noted in the2014 ASEE report [4]. It

The course taught these topicsconcurrently, with two lectures a week designated for building code and design topics and onelecture each week focused on the drafting software. The projects allowed the two disparateelements of the course (building design and drafting tools) to be combined. The course learningobjectives related to the term project focused on 1) an ability to navigate the building code, 2) todevelop models in Revit, 3) to work effectively in teams, and 4) to effectively communicateengineering designs through drawings and text to engineering

However, despite evidencepointing to deeper learning and development of critical thinking skills when enough opportunityfor reflection is included in service-learning [2]-[3], reflection is not widely used in engineering[3].

. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2018 Engagement in Practice: Developing a Sustainable K12 Outreach STEM ProgramIntroductionCurrently there are several challenges for having a continued innovative workforce in science,technology, engineering and mathematic (STEM) fields. First of all, there is a need to attract amore diverse population of students into the field. Whether a surplus or shortage [1] of STEMworkers exist to meet the future demands, it is clear that there is still a need to attract a morediverse group of students into these fields. Certainly, attracting a more diverse group of workerswould help ensure that the pool includes the brightest and could ultimately lead to
