transfer in the human body. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2016 FlowGo: An Educational Toolkit for Fluid Mechanics and Heat TransferAbstractThere are many commercial toys and learning products meant to help K-12 students learn about roboticsand electronics, but nothing similar exists to excite students about fluid mechanics and heat transfer. Con-sequently, many students who might grow up to work in these fields never even learn what they entail. Inaddition, while robotics and electronics are engaging for many students, water and heat design challengesmay provide entry into engineering for students with different interests. With this in mind, a modular,open-ended toolkit for

This theme is important to note because the inclusion of astakeholder or customer is the key element that differentiates entrepreneurially minded learningfrom project-based learning [3] and customer awareness is an important attribute of anentrepreneurially minded engineer [14]. The excerpts below show examples of how studentsrecognized the importance of focusing on the customer when designing solutions: “Specifically, I learned to identify the three clients: the decision-maker, the payer, and the end- user. I then learned how to formulate a problem statement that addresses client needs. Most of my previous experience was focused on technical skills, so learning to design for a client

will normally agree that ethics are importantand can select the correct answer for simple ESI questions. But what do engineering andcomputing students quickly draw to mind in relation to ESI? To explore this, students were askedto respond to two open-ended survey questions: (1) How do you view your role in society as anengineer or computer scientist? (2) List the ethical issues that you think are relevant to engineersand/or computer scientists. It was of interest to determine if student responses would vary fromthe beginning to the end of a term or across 15 settings where instructors had integrated contentand learning goals pertaining to ESI (ranging from first-year introductory courses to coursesfully focused on ethics at different
innovations within newteaching materials and the support provided by the Leonhard Center helped to facilitate andcatalyze the faculty. Led by the course chair and director of the design program, a proposal wassubmitted to develop a series of modules with the following goals in mind: • Strengthen relationship between the experience of a first-year engineering student and the vision of the college of engineering for graduating students • To provide a framework for students for the world-class engineer early in their education • Provide experience and vocabulary needed to make the World-Class Engineer an important part of engineering students’ identity • World-class Engineer attributes will be reinforced through
first-semester GPA, while logisticregression was used for first-year engineering retention because it is a binary outcome.43Consistent with standard practice,43 the logistic regression results are reported using odds ratios.Readers unfamiliar with logistic regression should keep in mind that odds are not the same asprobabilities. For example, if 60% of a cohort of students is retained in engineering (as wastypical both nationally and at the study university from 2011-2012), the probability of aparticular student being retained is 0.6 while the odds of his or her being retained are 60:40 or1.5:1. If, on the other hand, 82% of a group of students is retained (as was the case for the 2013Engineering LLCs at the study university), the probability

There are also skills, ways of knowing, being, representing, and living thatthese youth bring with them into the classroom, and educators should be sure not to overlook ordismiss these jewels of knowledge but celebrate them.

not been mentored by engineers. For example, astudent might have participated in Odyssey of the Mind, a national, project-based competitionwhere students apply math and science to build various projects according to specific criteria.While such an activity is “engineering-like,” when it was not specifically mentored by anengineer, we did not consider it engineering exposure. Similarly if a student had extensiveexperience programming or building computers but was self-taught, without the benefit ofhaving received any formal, discipline-based computer science, we considered this lowengineering exposure.Grace entered Coleman with low exposure to engineering.

Students must be aware ofthe transition from natural sciences to engineering so that they do not become frustrated of thedifferent orientation of instruction in their engineering science classes. They need to remainopen-minded and comfortable with the potential advantage of achieving conceptual change aboutthe nature of engineering.
