Engineering Libraries
growing need for help with GIS support, the University Library set out to develop a structurefor the support of Spatial Literacy on campus.Engineering support in the library has traditionally remained firmly text based, supporting theacademic side of Engineering research, but leaving much data development and practice in thedomain of the laboratory. In fact, there has been little demand from instructors for libraryinstruction in Engineering classes. In contrast to this trend, the Initiative for Spatial Literacy waslaunched by the libraries, by the hiring of an adjunct faculty member from the School ofEngineering who spearheads the program, collaborating with the university’s EngineeringLibrarian. This article will explain what spatial literacy is

To be eligible, students must havecompleted at least one semester of calculus, one laboratory science course, and oneadditional course in their majors. The first priority is given to the target population ofstudents transitioning between the sophomore-level and junior-level coursework. Thesecond priority is given to freshmen transitioning to sophomores and early-stagesophomores. Once the candidates are chosen, selection aims to optimize the diversity ofthe cohort within the groups

Though the resulting data is messy, we argue thatthe “messiness” is actually demonstrative of an authentic writing process, which does not happenin a laboratory setting. In real life, the “writing” process of experts might require significant timesearching for literature or checking manuscript/task requirements to comply with the evaluationcriteria. The video data recorded offers a wealth of data to analyze. In our past work, we providea literature-based commentary

In technology and engineering curriculumintegration of theory and technology happens in laboratory courses and in the arts and design it isin studios. In addition, professional programs often use a project-based, learner-centeredapproach.

in the fall. The course serves as a way for students to become familiar with theexpectations of college classes and to give them an idea of what mechanical engineering studentsdo. Students work in a team environment once a week on laboratory projects and open-endedmini-design projects where they incorporate elementary engineering design methodologies todesign some device within certain constraints. Once students begin working on their final designprojects, they meet outside of class to brainstorm ideas, build and test prototypes, and refine theirfinal designs. The final project typically lasts five weeks. Due to budgetary constraints, studentsconstruct their project out of common scrap/recycled materials. The final projects vary bysemester

Classroom-based strategies that engage students in authentic STEM experiences are in line with evidence-based instructional strategies that require moving away from lectures and recipe-based laboratory exercises toward more open-ended and student-driven STEM experiences….
