examining and creating a comprehensive roadmap for includinginnovative ideas and best practices in engineering curriculum enhancements.The opportunity for this workshop was created by a confluence of needs, resources, and interdisciplinaryinterests. Integrating previous experiences with service learning and social innovation learningopportunities, our interests matched NSF IUSE’s exploration and development (E&D) implementationframework. The workshop, funded by NSF, implemented and reflected the steps of design thinking asincreasing the engagement of students is a classic human-centered opportunity. This opportunity prioritizesthe engagement of the targeted stakeholders, rather than experts who are often at a distance from theproblems they seek

students in engineering education programs have typically been trained through ABET-accredited engineering programs. Despite ABET’s communication requirement, engineeringundergraduate students have limited opportunities to learn to write in their discipline [7]. Often,explicit writing instruction is limited to two courses: one in first-year writing, and one thatfocuses on engineering writing. The other writing engineering students do is integrated implicitlyin design and laboratory coursework. In these contexts, writing practices are often renderedinvisible as students are asked to fill forms, draw sketches, and incorporate appropriate equationsinto reports rather than write essays or reflections [6]. Instructors do not emphasize writingprocesses

anonline environment. To reflect the differences between online teaching during the pandemic andtraditional online teaching, remote instruction has been labelled emergency remote teaching(ERT) [2]. The abrupt and emergency nature of the transition to ERT (hereafter called remotelearning) has led to the notion that the quality of higher education decreased as a result of thepandemic. But, at the present time, insufficient evidence is available to assess to what degreehigher education and learning may have been compromised by the shift to remote learning. Earlyresearch assessing the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on higher education in China andSouth Korea has found that students engaged in increased and proactive communication withpeers and

In addition, our team reviewed responses froman earlier study phase in which participants identified types of engineering skills they felt wereimportant in their work to capture those practices not on our original list [34]. Our team thensought feedback on the clarity of items through an informal focus group of undergraduate andgraduate engineering students in one of the authors’ labs. Finally, we conducted pilot interviewswith an additional seven engineering students to further check clarity and comprehensiveness ofthe list of

Students in a senior design sequence were surveyedduring each semester of the course about their perceptions of senior design and the skills andprevious courses that were most relevant to design. The study was conducted within a large,public, MSI over the course of five semesters of the Mechanical Engineering Senior designsequence. Relationships between particular course groups and the skills students perceived asimportant for design were found. The results demonstrate that students perceived EngineeringCore Courses, Engineering Design Courses, and Engineering Track Core Courses as important inpreparing them for

An example of aLevel 3 prompt is “What was the best part of your weekend?” While this prompt could result insimilar answers, responses may reflect the respondent’s personal interests and activities theyenjoy.Finally, Level 4 prompts are the most personal and require the highest level of thought for therespondent. This level challenges respondents to think the most critically about their experiences,interests, and feelings. These prompts could be appropriately answered in 2+ sentences, with theaverage around 3-4.

Therefore, this paper seeks to answer the following research question: Whateducational supports do engineering faculty at HSIs propose to embed in their curricula toincrease their students’ intrinsic motivation?To answer this question, thirty-six engineering educators from thirteen two- and four-year HSIsfrom across the continental United States were introduced to the SDT and approaches forsupporting students’ intrinsic motivation during a multi-institutional faculty developmentworkshop series. Participants were asked to reflect on and prototype learning experiences thatwould promote intrinsic motivation and fulfill students’ needs for competence, relatedness, andautonomy to learn engineering [1].

Survey: Self-efficacy statements regarding three different aspects of thecourse - statistics, RStudio, and theory - were included in the survey. Since each methodinvolved RStudio and theory, it was crucial to look at each of those measures in thesurvey. Likewise, quality control is part of the statistics curriculum for industrial andsystems engineering so we found it important to include a few statements on statisticsself-efficacy as well.A. Statistics self-efficacy: The survey asked students to reflect on their comfort with statistics as well as their feelings about learning more statistics. Although quality control is a specific type of statistics, we were interested in how the course changes students’ perspectives on statistics in

This might mean that the GlobalEngineering course had an influence on students’ awareness of cultures on our global society andone’s own identity and engagement with a diverse group of people.

there appears to be a small positive gaintowards graduation moving the line above average readiness. Additional connection wasobserved when RQ1b was explored. As Table 3 reflects, there appears to be a strong correlation(ρ = 0.913, p = 0.087) between the mean readiness response and the number of professionalexperiences a student has. A t-test was used to compare overall (mean) readiness of the students who had no professional experiences to the group of students who had one or more experiences(p = 0.236, t = 1.189, df = 280).RQ1c explored “Does the self-reported level of the practice readiness differ across variousprofessional experiences?

In theUnited States (U.S.) specifically, study abroad has become more popular due to the emphasisplaced on global citizenry by institutions and employers [2]. This demand has more than doubledstudents’ participation in study abroad programs over the past decades [3]. Educational theoristKolb [4] posits that people learn effectively by immersing themselves in environments thatenable them to observe and reflect on their behaviors. Students who participate in internationalprograms acquire knowledge, skills, and beliefs useful in working with people in cross-culturalsettings [5

. There is no substitute for that experience, so that is a loss plain and simple. However,we realized that the prototyping process in this course takes up about 1/3 of class time and onlygenerates two useful datapoints in testing: truss failure load and weight. Some would argue thisis a poor return on investment. Practically speaking, not being able to fabricate opened up a lot ofclass time.Upon a bit of reflection, the answer to what could fill this void was obvious. Undergraduateengineering design has by definition a strong theoretical and technical foundation, but design isfundamentally creative in that it starts with a problem (nothing) and generates a solution(something).

education, gender issues, women in engineering, students' perceptions,educational innovationIntroductionParticipation of women in the engineering industry is meager, and their under-representation inengineering remains despite the industry's efforts. Attracting more women into the field has notyet been achieved, and their participation is still judged as insufficient by several authors [1].This fact is reflected initially in the low number of women enrolled in careers in the engineeringarea. If we specifically analyze the construction sector, it is not effective to push more women toenter these careers since the percentage of women employed in construction is proportional toincome. The probability that they will finish the degree and serve the
