Such mutual learning interaction between students is beneficial because students will either be required to articulate their knowledge of a subject in ways that another student can understand or will profit from getting an alternative perspective from a peer on how to approach a problem.For the author’s courses, students are provided a variety of ways to demonstrate learning of thecourse material. The HW problem sets have typically counted for around 25% of the coursegrade. All courses include a laboratory and/or project component that counts for about 25% ofthe course grade, while two exams and a cumulative final count for the remaining 50%. Sincethe LON

, Electrical and Mechanicalengineering degree programs have historically required their students to complete a coordinatedMultidisciplinary Engineering Laboratory sequence.​2​ Finally, multidisciplinary capstone courseshave been experimented with at CSM since the early nineteen nineties.​3​ Even with this strongfoundation, there are significant challenges to running a successful, multidisciplinary capstoneprogram.Capstone programs differ from other multidisciplinary courses in several ways. Freshmanexperiences don’t have the same expectations to deliver discipline specific technical content thatare required at the senior level. For that reason, a closer parallel to multidisciplinary capstonemight be found in multidisciplinary laboratory sequences

He has active research in the area of food safety engineering through integration of heat transfer model and predictive microbial growth/death models for food safety risk assessment. Every fall, he teaches a large sophomore- level class on engineering properties of biological materials, which consists of both lectures and laboratory sessions with an enrollment of more than 70 students. Every spring, he teaches a junior-level course on principles of bioprocess engineering which has an enrollment of about 25 students.Dr. Ashu Guru, University of

challenges of this environment is that on a given day, all classroomsare used at about ninety percent capacity. Hence, we do not have the facilities orinfrastructure to move our massive amounts of introductory physics courses into a studioor laboratory based setting for some of the larger scale pedagogy initiatives. Further, withsuch saturation of our overall facilities, professors are typically never in the sameclassroom twice per day, making even tasks such as carrying demonstrations orspontaneous live experiments cumbersome.

In mostengineering programs, the theoretical analysis is delivered to students via a series of courses, suchas Statics, Dynamics, Materials of Mechanics.

According to the deansinterviewed, the most common ways EM could help faculty is through enhancing the impact oftheir research and having them place more value in educational innovation. This is exemplifiedperfectly by the following quote from a dean J at an R1/R2 private institution: I am really speaking about using research funding to develop technologies that have, generally, commercial application, but that could be put to broader use beyond an individual laboratory. One of the descriptors I've used is, "science that doesn't stop at the laboratory door." Meaning, publishing the paper is wonderful, but

Unlike other branches of engineeringwhere practitioners have greater control over the materials they use, geotechnical engineeringdepends heavily on field exploration and experience. Unfortunately, geotechnical engineeringeducation has been mainly focused on a limited number of small sample laboratory experimentsbecause it is geographically and cost prohibitive to conduct actual field tests for the students.Currently, there is a prevalent lack of an affordable and reliable way to educate and train studentson the
