If the students were achieving the specifiedtolerance, the success scores would be nine or higher.ABET Outcome 3a was met but not improved. The student outcome is improved because thescores went up per the assessment. However, the T-test reveals the scores were not significantlydifferent. In fact, there is a 95% chance they were the same.The difference between Lab 6a and 6b labs was not obvious. It was unclear if this was due tolack of understanding in applying FEA or if their assumed failure mode was not reflected in theirchosen orientation properties

First, administrative decisions do not reflect the full range of human experience.In more concrete terms, we cannot assume that engineers’ lived realities will conform tothe dual track model proposed by human resource managers. Second, not all career pathsare made equal. It behooves us, as critical engineering education researchers, to examinethe full range of mobility patterns, working

Total =Reflections This was an elective course which did not have a set curriculum yet and was run as atrial. We got to experiment a little with the course presentation. The authors were trying tobase this module on the Montessori method of education. The Montessori method is based onthe principle of auto education. When a proper prepared environment is built, the eager mindteaches itself. The learning happens through play, and the result is that the child learns in away that cannot be forgotten at the end of the semester. This method was developed by Dr.Maria Montessori to teach preschool age children and is a popular method of education inyounger children. Recently there has been some use of this method in EngineeringEducation[2

For subjective or summative artifacts, like reflective essays ordesign reports that may not have specific required components, a holistic rubric may align betterwith the desired outcomes. Often, a holistic rubric has performance criteria defined within asingle rating system for the entire work and doesn’t provide much performance feedback as partof the rubric itself [16]. For either type of rubric, performance criteria must be developed.

On comparing the three models ofcurriculum design, we found that the Weinstein and Fantini’s Humanistic model only concentrateson the learners’ needs and interests.

In the next lab, they utilize the device itself, and compare experimental data to thetheoretical performance that they expect, then are asked to reflect on the reasons fordiscrepancies. In a later lab, students develop a controller for the Qube. They are given a set ofspecifications that the controller should achieve; these differ from one term to the next, buttypically involve parameters such as overshoot and settling time.

important that engineers are prepared to face ethical dilemmas in their work before theygraduate from college. However, ethics instruction is a challenging task given the myriadsituations that may be encountered and variability in the extent that students are motivated tolearn about engineering ethics. One challenge in student motivation is the perception that ethicaldilemmas are uncommon and unlikely in most engineering work. Thus, student perceptions ofthe quality of the ethics instruction that they received may be skewed by their lack of foresightinto the future importance of these topics. A retrospective reflection of working engineers ontheir college ethics education can overcome this limitation and may provide perspectives that aredifferent

Few students discussed the more‘emotional’ side of LYG in relation to the situation.Overall, requiring the students to tie the code of ethics to the situation described by LYG on theTampa highway system seemed to work moderately well. If the instructor had time to read thestudent reflections in the homework prior to class, a richer discussion could have been facilitated.It was interesting to see what elements students picked up on. For example, some misinterpretedor seemed to minimize the situation.The ethics assignment was followed by a lecture and homework assignment on JEDI. JEDI wasintegrated into the course as a required CU101 topic for all first-year students. The
