Page 26.643.3While these efforts show that some engineering education is working towards increases in SRattitudes, some quantitative studies have shown that SR decreases more for women than menover one year – 23.6% of first-year women decreased while only 9.1% increased, 15.1% of mendecreased while 19.8% increased35. Further, engineering students’ perceived importance of thesocial impacts of engineering (such as “professional/ethical responsibilities” and the“consequences of technology”) were found to decrease from the first to fourth years indicating a“culture of disengagement” in engineering education36.The overall goals of the research are to explore the SR development of engineering studentsthrough college, using qualitative methods.

It isnecessary to find an alternative teaching strategy in engineering courses, particularly forconveying scientific principles to real situations. To assess innovative methods for solving theproblems and limitations of the traditional teaching model in chemical engineering andbiomedical engineering, a half interactive hands-on learning experiment, half lecture-teachingmodel is being explored. In this process, having the aim of a better understanding and absorptionof key principles and difficult concepts in fluid mechanics and neuronal membrane physiology,we are combining multimedia technology with whiteboard and hands-on tabletop units.A Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer course

Forthose projects that require a motor the students must identify torque, horsepower, and RPMneeds derived from their analysis. Upon the conclusion of the analysis, students present theirfindings in Critical Design Review (CDR) presentation, to simulate workplace environment,write the final report, and create complete product definition (engineering drawings and models).It is worth noting that there are many skills integrated in our approach, which are aligned withNational Academy of Engineering report on Engineers of 2020 [6] and Accreditation Board forEngineering and Technology (ABET) (www.abet.org) students learning outcomes (outcomes band c).

There is also an apparent contradiction between if theirscience elective has aided them in understanding their chosen specialization compared to if theyhave been able to use the information gained in their science elective. These questions may needto be refined.References1. Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET).

From thesurvey feedback, the effectiveness of the FEM model in enhancing student learning is clearlyseen. Assessment of this approach and results of teaching strategies are presented.IntroductionEngineering educators are constantly challenged on how best to incorporate fast advancingtechnologies. One of these modern technology advancements is the development of modernComputer Aided Engineering (CAE) software and applications. To adopt these advancedengineering tools effectively into today’s engineering curricula is important.The Finite Element Method (FEM) is a numerical method, but it is by far the most widely usedand the most
