decades there have also been not only significantadvances in the renewable energy technologies, energy efficiency and sustainability, but also anincreased demand for trained engineers and technicians in these areas. To maintain current livingstandards in developed countries and increase the quality of life in developing countries,sustainability and energy efficiency need to be at the core of all engineering activities. Thisrequires the development of innovative curricula, new courses and laboratories to educatestudents to work in these rapidly developing industries. Teaching sustainability and alternativeenergy on today engineering curriculum has increasingly become an essential feature.Engineering education moves into the twenty first century

Abstract Laboratory safety poses inherent legal and ethical responsibilities that all engineeringeducation programs in the United States (U.S.) must address. However, developing safer habitsin the creation and testing of engineering design solutions starts long before students enter post-secondary engineering education programs. P-12 engineering education programs are a criticalpartner to develop greater safety awareness and safer habits among prospective engineers andour future workforce. This research utilized data from a national safety study involving 718 P-12engineering educators from 42 U.S. states, specifically focusing on the subsample of 117teachers from middle Atlantic (mid-Atlantic) states. Analyses found mid-Atlantic P

fundamental to its creation, the teaching anddelivery of the course will determine the ultimate success. This is one of the first engineeringcourses that students take during their college careers, so it is important to engage the students inlearning about their discipline. However this engagement must be done in a way that permitsmultiple instructors and multiple sections to be taught to offer uniformity in computingexperiences. One way to engage the student is using in-class assignments and exercises. We refer Page 13.772.3to these as “in-class labs” to convey the laboratory nature of these exercises.Essentially, the course (TE/ISE 110) revolves
time effectively by challenging students to prepare prior to class. In return theallotted time provides a place for students to work through problems and encourage cooperativelearning. Furthermore, social media is being used to increase subject interest and boost classattendance by improving instructor and student interactions. These techniques challenge studentsenough to maintain focus while remaining within their capabilities to preserve student curiosity.Learning enhancement using these new teaching styles was assessed through surveys provided atthe beginning and end of each experiment. The studies sampled students from a variety ofbackgrounds and skill sets including military, medical, and college students. Alternative and costeffective
