The program benefits from the strong support it receives from a partnershipbetween a major energy services industry and employers of the ECET program graduates. TheECET major prepares students for application-oriented engineering technology careers in circuits,conventional and renewable electrical power, analog and digital electronics, industrial controls,microcomputer, telecommunications

completed.Specifications grading provides the means for controlling the process parameters. Each time thestudent completes work that is within the process parameters, credit is given and the studentadvances toward fulfilling the course performance requirements.If we are going to help students engage in effective learning processes, then a natural place tostart is with courses that are early in the student’s career. From an engineering perspective, thisimplies the “gateway” courses that students first encounter in their engineering studies. Of these,the courses in Engineering Mechanics (Statics, Dynamics) provide an essential foundation forseveral engineering disciplines which makes them logical candidates for the implementation ofeffective learning

These studentsused pair-programming and solo group modes of collaboration on projects in this class. Inthis study, the authors interviewed with three female students to understand their opinionsabout collaborating in teams. According to this paper, all three females had positive viewsabout this collaboration.

This paper is a case studyof the development of a four-year integrated hands-on design curriculum to motivate, retain,and prepare mechanical engineering students for success in their capstone (senior) designcourse and future careers. Over a period of ten years, a team of faculty members haveincorporated hands-on design components into a sequence of five mechanical design courses,as well as an introductory fluid mechanics laboratory course.

It is good practice to instruct students to make an initial timely post of their introductionand then return to the Introduce Yourself discussion sometime prior to the end of the first unit ormodule to reply to a couple of their classmates. Although some of this information may be thesame for some working professionals from one course to the next while pursuing a graduatedegree or certificate, it is strongly suggested that each course begin like this to encouragestudents to engage with the instructor and each other and reduce feelings of isolation right fromthe start.

MOTIVATION AND BACKGROUND Additive manufacturing (AM, or 3D printing) technology is quickly becoming a common sightin cornerstone engineering design courses [1,2]. The reason is twofold: (i) AM is set to be adominant tool for end-use manufacturing (and thus it benefits engineering students to be exposedas soon in their careers as possible) and (ii) low-cost AM systems can enable rapid prototypingand iteration in the design process, while dovetailing well with computer-aided design (CAD)skills also learned in cornerstone design courses.
