manufacturing in both of these disciplinesis needed8. Many current engineering programs do not emphasize the marriage of design andmanufacturing in a modern industrial technical workforce [10].Many research studies have assessed the quality of exposure to manufacturing through the seniordesign or capstone course. McMasters and Lang indicate that few people in industry have anunderstanding of how the current engineering education is undertaken. Through design projects,the inclusion of industry partners in the education process will enhance the education provided tothe students and better reflect the expectations of industry [11]. Universities are exposingstudents to manufacturing through senior capstone design courses to offer students with arealistic

, 2017 An Assessment Framework for First- Year Introduction to Engineering Courses AbstractIn this evidence-based practice paper, we describe an assessment framework that applies to first-year introductory engineering courses. First-year engineering courses cover a variety of learningobjectives that address both technical and professional outcomes outlined in ABET. Thesecourses also often involve open-ended design and modeling projects. The assessment of multiplecompetencies along with open-ended design can be a challenging task for educators. In thispaper, we describe a framework that guides instructional processes for effective assessment forstudent learning

, foster motivation and psychological growth. These psychological needs areautonomy, competence, and relatedness. Autonomy involves being and acting in harmony withone's integrated sense of self and values as well as feeling that one has ownership over one’sactions. In educational environments, autonomy is visible when learning environments offerlearners opportunities for choice, self-direction, and flexibility rather than imposing strict or rigiddirection and demands. Learners are thus motivated when they have choice in their academicpathways, courses, learning topics, classroom projects, etcetera based on their interests andaspirations. Competence involves mastering tasks and learning new skills and involves a sense ofaccomplishment derived from

sustainability is not neglected by simply being part of a large list of choices. • Lowered the threshold on project management. The first proposed CEPC required students to “apply principles of project management” which would have met the level specified by the BOK2. The CEPCTC considered that examples of project management opportunities in the undergraduate program include design teams for course assignments, capstone design projects, and undergraduate research. These opportunities exist in all of the sub-disciplines of civil engineering. The comments generated from constituents and the survey of the department heads demonstrated that many thought a course in project management would be required and

In their portfolios the youth includedescriptions of their design processes, as well as, the failures and challenges they faced. Thewebsites are usually media-rich and include images and videos. Instructors often view thesewebsites during the courses and afterwards and provide the youth with feedback.

to get out of thetraditional “teaching mode” as it was for the students to get out of the “passive learning” mode.Nevertheless, the students’ final projects and presentations suggest that the learning experiencesucceeded and students developed a realistic understanding of what it takes to be an entrepreneur.Further, the experience resulted in a plan of improvements to the method, three of them key. First,given the natural ambiguity of PBL to develop entrepreneurial skills, it is imperative that structuralaspects of the course are as unambiguous as possible. Second, the grading and support structure ofthe course need to reward student self-sufficiency. Third, in-class activities must be structured sothat teams are forced to be fully prepared

In this traditional approach, seniors areusually introduced to process simulation in their fall semester through homework andcomputer labs and then, they are expected to fully use the simulator to perform mass andenergy balances, try alternative design schemes, and optimize the most appropriate design. Allthese tasks are usually done during the spring semester capstone design project. Lately, thechemical engineering community has seen a strong
