universities will necessarily have different challenges than small private colleges.Whether large or small, public or private, elite or more mainstream, each type of institution canbring something to the discussion. Therefore, when planning panel discussions andpresentations, care should be taken to include representatives from a range of institutions. Page 13.977.9Finally, much of the best engagement in a dialogue-focused workshop occurs outside of theorganized sessions; it occurs at meals, informally in the hallways, and when milling aroundbetween sessions. Thus, such a workshop should leave plenty of time for the participants to talkwith each other

In addition to continuing the instructor’s self assessment of the sophomore designcourse, we will be surveying the capstone senior design project technical mentors on thestudents’ preparation on applying the design methodology at the beginning of their capstoneproject. (Technical mentors are either practicing engineers or faculty members depending uponthe engineering program.) This feedback will then be incorporated into the

Laboratory Improvement grant allowed us to extend the curriculum to all 280 freshman engineering students taking ENGR 120 in the fall of 2007. Approximately 400 freshman students have enrolled in the course sequences based on the Living with the Lab curriculum during the current 2007-2008 academic year. During efforts to develop a formal assessment plan to determine the effectiveness of the new courses, we realized that we needed a set of guideposts to help us determine if our strategies were effective not only in teaching students, but also in preparing them for their engineering careers. We realized that the work sponsored by the National Academy of Engineering to identify attributes of “The Engineer of 2020”17 aligned closely with our efforts

Both surveys addressed the delivery of the blended-learning course, specificallythe format and technologies used. The goal was to assess whether or not the course could beeffectively taught using the established delivery mechanisms. The lecture survey consisted of sixLikert-style responses and five open-ended questions.

In the redesign step, the information gathered from theprocess analysis, as well as the machine cutting baseline tables, a new manufacturing processplan and “draft” CNC program were generated. For example, optimizing the face-millingoperation by increasing the depth of cut while maintaining a high federate, increasing the peakspindle load to over 140% (projected), provided a significant gain.
