75.7 81.1 70.3 78.4 64.9 Results show that engineering disciplines which were covered during the program recordedhigher numbers of mentions after the program. Prior to the program, only three out of thirty-seven students made mention about industrial engineering, but that number increased to twenty-six at the end of the program. The results reflect the increase in student exposure to otherengineering disciplines beyond any existing prior knowledge. To better assess students’ understanding of each engineering discipline that was covered andtheir ability to distinguish between them, a rating based on a Likert scale was applied to eachstudent response on the same questionnaire based on the following scale definition: • 0 – Student did

Twenty institutions have signed letters of commitment to join MIDFIELD.

Use of these catalogsconstrained students to the tooling available to them, and served as a more effective way ofconveying the tooling capabilities of the lab. Rather than searching for a tool in the lab, a studentis able to simply view the appropriate tool catalog in NX and CATIA, and determine if the tool isavailable. This is not to say that specialty tools cannot be used within the workflow. Rather, it issolely a means to convey the standard tooling capabilities.The real power of the workflow lies in the creation of a process catalog. A process catalog is thekey element that

Inorder to conduct successful product designs, the stress/strain of components under loadings mustbe fully explored and known. However, stress/strain of components/ assemblies withcomplicated geometries and loading, which typically encounter in industry, seldom have anexplicit theoretical solution.FEA (Finite Element Analysis) simulation is a numerical technique that

The other group seems to experience great difficulty with the open-ended learning and the independent problem solving that is needed for successful project completion. Sometimes they struggle greatly to carry their part of the work for the team to completion. This group does not necessarily correspond to the lower GPA students. The department hopes to explore further how to facilitate better open-ended problem solving earlier in the students’ careers. Perhaps this reflects the need for a combination of the triplet of Knowledge, Skills and Attitudes necessary for successful civil engineering practice. • There continues to be some confusion with the multiple

Specifically, civilian capstone design teams investigated in this studyexhibited more shared leadership than their military counterparts with respect to the TCR form ofleadership. Reflecting on the nature of military leadership, these results are not surprising. Thelower TCR decentralization and TCR density measures for the military design teams provideindications that these teams enact somewhat more centralized or vertical leadership than theircivilian counterparts. Centralizing leadership to fewer individuals would result in lessdistribution and amount of leadership within the teams. This tendency may be a by-product ofstudents' intensive military leadership training. Military organizations are often

Further, many graduating high schoolstudents do not know enough about the various engineering disciplines to make informed choicesabout college majors. This paper describes a week-long, residential summer outreach program called Engineering:Get Into Real Learning (E-GIRL) which was implemented at Texas Tech University (TTU) forthe first time in the summer of 2015.

Table 6: Survey Results Regarding Negative Feelings toward WeBWorKIn most areas, there were fewer negative feelings toward WeBWorK in the winter term than thefall term. This may be due to the more positive previous experience with WeBWorK among thestudents taking the course in the winter. A feeling that the problems are too difficult was notedfrom these data. Upon reflection, the authors concluded that many of the newly-crafted problemswere more on the difficult end of the scale, and more were needed at the easier end of the scaleto assist students in building their skills and confidence gradually.

Figure 7 shows students’ perceptions of how important technical concerns are to their studiofaculty. These results are among the most emphatic in the whole survey. Approximately 15 % ofstudents agree with the statement that “Very few instructors think it is important” and 70% agreethat “Some instructors think it is important, others do not.” These perceptions (regardless ofwhether they are an accurate reflection of their studio instructors’ actual values) elicit concern.

In other words, what is the set of keyoutcomes one would like for their students to have possessed at the end of the learningexperience or even years after they have exited the learning process? For example, in theintroductory circuit course used for study three it was evident that students were expected tohave developed a certain level of engineering problem solving skills that could be translated toother complex learning experiences. The emphasis on working problems in the class or the use oflearning activities meant to provide more class time for working problems were also reflected instudies two
