explanations [9]. However, thefield of engineering has not yet established a clear idea of what “disciplinary engagement”means.Engineering at its core is about creating solutions to problems using mathematics, science, andcreativity through a design process. The engineering curriculum reflects this by containingdifferent types of courses that teach the mathematical models of natural phenomena (i.e.engineering science courses, or technical core courses), laboratory and experimental techniquesand processes (i.e. lab courses), and fundamentals of engineering design (i.e. design courses).These courses all ask students to engage disciplinarily in different ways, all in support of theoverall practice of engineering to create new solutions.

With theadvent of computers, learning through computer-based environments has dramatically increased1, 2 . The high demand in engineering professionals equipped with relevant and up-to-date PLCsskills, drives the engineering education to develop the alternative to the standard in-classinstruction approaches. Traditional approach of teaching PLCs assumes the training to be doneon actual equipment. Theory and exercises are integrated into a course to improve and perfectstudent skills.

In “Balancing Faculty Workload” (American MathematicalSociety 1, 2012), the areas covering teaching, research, and service are the key elements ofconcern when it comes to the topic of teaching workload.
