students to think broadly toaddress engineering challenges. These EML experiences have been included into courses andacross curricula at many institutions [2].EML is often associated with large scale project-based activities, which can be daunting tofaculty to implement into their course. Many faculty members are underprepared for theirinstructional roles [3] and do not have sufficient support in their teaching [4]. One way in whichwe supported faculty in integrating this new approach is through creating a KEEN FacultyLearning Community (FLC) at UNC-Chapel Hill. An FLC is a small group of faculty and staffwho engage in an active, collaborative yearlong experience [5]. The program includes a year-long curriculum that covers learning development and

UAVs provedto be an excellent choice, providing youth with both fun hands-on activities, such as learning tofly, as well as offering an interesting platform for integrating a broad range of engineeringphenomena such as load testing, remote sensing, engineering design, and tradeoff analyses.The 16-week Engineering Experiences curriculum has been iteratively refined and studied over athree-year period following a design-based research methodology [9], whereby research

have demonstrated very good technical skills to higher paying managementpositions. Some of these engineers have become terrible managers simply because they lack thedifferent skills needed to deal with the human element of the job. The way engineers areperceived to manage is comically portrayed in a national comic strip. This comic strip depicts anengineer working for a manager that has no idea how to handle many of what seems to be typicaloffice issues. This image portrays the way many view an engineering manager. The recent focuson engineering management is an attempt to address this problem. Engineering Managementprograms have been developed to provide both a technical and a managerial background toengineering graduates.William Lannes (2001

In addition, there remains a lack of resources available to individualspossessing some existing STEM competencies to retool their skills to meet the current demandfor mechatronics specialists. Moreover, to better prepare future specialists in mechatronics,learners need hands-on experiential opportunities to understand the future outlook ofmechatronics and enhance retention in the field. Thus, there remains an urgent need for therelevant curriculum, software, and hardware developments and implementation at variouseducational levels to achieve these goals.Specific project objectives

One purpose of the service learning project is tobuild on this passion, giving them a tangible way to get involved while they are students. Theproject fosters an ethic of civic engagement among the engineering students. This engagementwith the community should enhance their engagement with learning and increase their dedicationto engineering.13 The positive effects of integrating service-learning in the curriculum includeimproved retention and graduation rates particularly among underrepresented groups

Completing the requirements for graduationin four years is difficult, even for students able to begin the program in the first semester.Students unprepared to begin engineering curriculums face an even greater challenge, especiallyin completing the series of math courses required for all disciplines.

Although thereis a body of research on the teaching of engineering ethics and the integration of thesocial sciences with engineering, and that is certainly relevant to examining thetechnology/society interface, I am examining faculty beliefs and processes aroundcurriculum choice with respect to contextualizing science and technology curriculum.After some early reviews of existing literature, I decided that the

Using Dynamic Simulation Software in Machine and Mechanism Design Classes William E. Howard, Joseph C. Musto, and William C. Farrow Milwaukee School of EngineeringABSTRACTThe design and analysis of machines and mechanisms is an important area of study in anymechanical engineering curriculum. Teaching the concepts of kinematics and kinetics can bechallenging, however, as the static nature of traditional teaching methods are not particularlywell suited to developing an understanding of the physical dynamics of a mechanism. Untilrecently, dynamic simulation software was expensive and cumbersome to use, and so its role inundergraduate education was limited.Over the past decade, many new

While most schoolshave not integrated hydrogen fuel cell technology into their curriculum, some pioneering schoolshave already developed programs to teach and apply fuel cell science in the classrooms; amongthem is the Fuel Cell Education Initiative, started in 2001.

The course module (I)“User-Centered Design-Problem Definition” was offered based on the product and useroriented design aspects. The other course module “Experiential Manufacturing and MaterialAesthetics” was proceeded through project-based learning activities. The two course modules were combined into relevant course, Project Laboratory (1) &(2), on the spring semester (2016) as an elective course to undergraduate students.

). Service-learning is a pedagogy thatfosters these concepts and goes further to bring relevance to course content by identifyingspecific community needs and developing a project or entire curriculum to meet those needs [1]-[2]. The end product results in a healthy collaboration between the university and community atlarge. Another key aspect about service-learning is the opportunity for reflection and educatingstudents about the importance of reflection in the overall educational experience [1]-[3].Service-learning applies well to an engineering curriculum, which comprises students thatpredominantly learn-by-doing.

The findings and recommendations of the task force focusedon subject connectivity, hands-on design experiences, and flexibility in years 3-4 of theundergraduate program.

theeducational basis of PBL. The main supporters of the cognitive theories are Jean Piagetand Robert Gagne. The implementation of the PBL activities involves instructorguidance, reflection and motivation as well. Constructivism is an off chute fromcognitivism where theorists believe not all information is known and there isn’tnecessarily one truth to all questions. Constructivist philosophy believes knowledge isbased on experiences and one must construct their own meanings. John Dewey, born outof a progressive philosophy, believes in social constructivist psychology, because he isconcerned with the process rather than the end product of the curriculum (Dewey, 1916)4.Cognitive teaching involves problem solving, cooperative learning and discoverylearning
