best strategies their peers are using. As noted by researchers in [6-8], awareness ofmetacognitive processes can help in ways of improving understanding of a topic. By deliberatelydiscussing these and other learning strategies as part of in-class activities, students areencouraged to monitor their understanding as they read or apply it for working through technicalscenarios.Figure 3. Student-suggested strategies for the effective reading of technical textsFollowing the in-class discussions on reading strategies, students reviewed the strategies listedon the MARSI and rank-ordered the ones they prefer to use regularly.

Also, in the past 10 years she gained experience in teaching ME and ET courses in both quality control and quality assurance areas as well as in thermal-fluid, energy conversion and mechanical areas from various levels of instruction and addressed to a broad spectrum of students, from freshmen to seniors, from high school graduates to adult learners. She also has extended experience in curriculum development. Dr Husanu developed laboratory activities for Measurement and Instrumentation course as well as for quality control undergraduate and graduate courses in ET Masters program.

engineeringprograms do not explicitly address it throughout their curricula. For instance, there are manycompetitions, challenges and opportunities for the demonstration of design skills, but most areoptional or extracurricular, catching only a portion of engineering graduates in a somewhat adhoc manner and at variable or even random places and times. As Walesh states, "Yes, we couldindividually and collectively rely on accidental creativity and innovation, those wonderful butrare out-of-the-blue events. However, why not complement accidental creativity and innovationwith the intentional kind?"11(pxviii) Making development of creativity skills a deliberate part ofengineering curricula is vital. If we do not integrate the development of these important skills

individualizing programs, modifying the physical environment, curriculum andinstructional approaches [25]. Buffer and Scott’s seminal work assisted technology educators inidentifying, understanding, and adapting instructional practices to better respond to the needs ofthe special education population [26]. Though there are studies citing situated cognition, a formof contextualized learning, as a means of improving success for special needs technologyeducation students [27] and the implementation of game design to assist special needs students inthe classroom [28], a dearth of quantitative research remains in assessing the success of thesemethods.Also limited are studies on ethnic minority students in technology education programs.

- and open-book exams. This paperwill introduce the concept of closed- and open-reference teaching and assessment methodsincluding a canvas of academic literature on related research. Motivation for the inclusion of thecourse-provided equation reference sheet determined from course feedback collected fromprevious iterations is analyzed and discussed. Current students were surveyed to gain insight intothe students’ comfort with the material and gain anecdotal results on the method. Next, theaspects of designing and implementing the reference material are discussed with thoughts onlayout, which equations to include, which data to include, and how to incorporate the referencematerial into daily instruction. Student feedback was analyzed along with

Paper ID #29338CAREER: Actualizing Latent Diversity in Undergraduate EngineeringEducationDr. Allison Godwin, Purdue University at West Lafayette Allison Godwin, Ph.D. is an Assistant Professor of Engineering Education at Purdue University. Her research focuses what factors influence diverse students to choose engineering and stay in engineering through their careers and how different experiences within the practice and culture of engineering fos- ter or hinder belongingness and identity development. Dr. Godwin graduated from Clemson University with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering and Ph.D. in Engineering and Science

embedded within our research design.Because engineering education researchers are also educators, the asymmetric relationshipbetween teacher and student can impact the quality of the interview data. For instance, there issomething potentially problematic about having faculty members interview students about thedifficulty they have speaking with faculty. While there may be other methods for facilitatingaccess, having students interview other students enabled us to tap more directly into studentexperiences.1 We also realized, through the course of this pilot study, that we were inviting ourstudent researchers to engage in a practice that was contiguous with a mode of interactionfamiliar to students—talking to friends about the challenges they were

were targeted in this study; applying and creating. Forapplying, 3D models were made available that could be viewed on a smartphone using an ARapplication or on a computer. The models were generated for problems that students in previousyears found challenging or expressed difficulty in visualizing. Students were then encouraged touse this model to inform their problem solving. For creating, students were given the opportunityto generate 3D models based on textbook examples, indicate types of stresses and displaydeformed shapes. For both activities, student perceptions, best practices, and lessons learned arenoted. Students were also asked to provide feedback about their experience and the effectivenessof AR models in their learning in class
