Rahnavard’s robot was different from other educational robots because it was possible toaccess all of the components through the low-level integration, which is different from most robots,which have a high-level integration of components and software control. Students would haveaccess to signals on the robot that could be measured with standard equipment. The robot partsincluded discrete electrical, electronics, and integrated circuit elements. The robot has two analogcommands for velocity and direction, six digital commands, and analog data that can

The last integrating course iscalled Degree Portfolio and culminates with the completion of the study program. This course isbased on multidisciplinary projects carried out by teachers of different specialties, finishing in anindividual examination before a commission composed of the course lecturers and externalevaluators who are invited exclusively for this process.Around 70% of college courses are specialized and are concentrated in the last 3 years of

In general changes to pedagogy and curriculum have not yielded an increase in thenumber or diversity of students entering the quantitative disciplines (Jolly et al, 2004).Using the 2011-2013 data as a baseline, the decision was made to help underpreparedengineering students improve their math achievement outcomes by modifying thecurriculum to test an applied mathematics course for engineers adapted from Wright StateUniversity’s NSF funded ENG101 applied math course. Freshmen and transfer students(N=507) entering in Fall 2014 and Fall 2015 included 84% freshmen, 16% transfers, 21%women, and 14% ethnic minorities. While 86% of students reported very strong

continue to be underrepresented in STEM fields. The STEM Scholars Pro-gram aims to increase the number of African-Americans in STEM fields by preparing high schoolstudents for the STEM college curriculum. Many first-time students enter college without any background knowledge in their chosenSTEM major. This lack of exposure puts them at a disadvantage, as they are learning coursematerial concurrently with basic STEM-related skills, such as computing and algorithmic think-ing. This program aims to train high school students in these skills to increase their interest andaptitude in STEM fields. As a result of this effort, students will be more prepared for STEM majorsand be more attractive to STEM programs. STEM Scholars is an academic year

Therefore, the curriculum ofengineering education must match the needs to resolve real-world sophisticated and authenticproblems. Moreover, the curriculum of engineering education needs to cultivate students’capability not only of deep perspective to a particular problem but also divergent thinking.This view is supported by the theory of Conceptual Learning and Development (CLD), whichsuggests that taught theoretical concepts should be linked to related engineering problems 2.With the rapid change in the structure of the competitive market, those talents who arecapable of embarking on independent design and skillful in innovation

Despite this, few universities count computer science (CS) classestoward the core curriculum. Recently, our university, a Hispanic- and minority-serving, researchintensive university located in the American Southwest began counting CS towards fulfilling thelaboratory science requirement in the undergraduate core curriculum. That our university servesa population overwhelmingly underrepresented in CS provided us with an opportunity toinvestigate the characteristics and perceptions of students who enroll in a course like this.Literature

Studies over the last decade have shown that LGBTQIA+engineering students have continuously felt excluded and devalued in STEM spaces. A key factorin this chilly climate is the social-technical dualism that is often strictly enforced in engineeringcurriculum. Professors and students alike see discussing politics and social issues as irrelevant tothe highly technical curriculum. As a result, queer identities are erased from engineering andstudents are never able to formally connect engineering with their queer (or other) identity in anymeaningful way. In an effort to combat this, we have implemented a LGBTQIA+ reading groupthat challenges the

Formative assessment across the software application development process is intentionally integrated into the project. Each learning objective is addressed by at least two means of assessment. 3. Assessment works best when the programs it seeks to improve have clear, explicitly stated purposes. As the first-year students are still developing programmers, opportunities for formative assessment feedback are placed at critical points in the design process. 4.

experiments were offered using a hands-on approach. Withthe miniaturization of integrated circuits, it is becoming very difficult to construct a PC board orassemble surface mount chips in a lab environment. This shortcoming of the hands-on approachhas led professors and teachers to incorporate simulation in place of hands-on in technology-based lab courses. In spite of the advantages of simulations, hands-on labs remain tremendously importantin the technology curriculum, which is based on Dewey’s experiential learning theory. The basicpremise of this theory is that students learn as a result of doing or experiencing things in theworld, and learning occurs when mental activity is suffused with physical activity.5 Theprofessional success of a
