[20] refer to four different types of knowledge: declarativeknowledge (“knowing that”), procedural knowledge (“knowing how”), schematic knowledge(“knowing why”), and strategic knowledge (“knowing when, where, and how our knowledgeapplies”). This framework provides a useful way of evaluating laboratory experiences; what istypically termed “inquiry based laboratory exercises,” are ones that reach the higher levels of theknowledge taxonomy [12]. Pre-labs and other types of preparation are also important as identifiedin Kolb’s experiential learning cycle [21] and [18]. Without “just in time” lectures and pre

Comments from students over the three years of the course are used tohighlight specific learning outcomes. ● “Perhaps my view was too idealistic at the start of the course, but I am now at least aware that despite the best of intentions, many factors have to be well thought out before a large-scale project can help those in need sustainably. Furthermore, I am now aware of practical ways to account for the needs of project beneficiaries and ensure these

The focus of this case narrowed and case may notlook beyond the lone conclusion related to the technical flaw. In contrast, an analysis of a casestudy about the Deepwater Horizon accident yields more insight into engineering design than asingle answer to why the failure occurred.The case study approach provides course participants with the opportunity to apply their criticalthinking skills to each scenario and exercise non-analytical insight as part of the design process.Ultimately, the methodology reinforces the practice of reflection upon past successes

During 2013-15 class offerings, there was more time devoted to the interactive activitiesbetween the faculty-students and students-students. This means that even less time was devotedto the theoretical material normally presented in the traditional lectures and students were"forced" to spend even more time studying. The reflection of this is the best students'performance - 83%/88%/80 average and 10%/8%/13.8% standard deviation in the final examsconducted during 2013-15 period.

One exception was the configuration step, where the score was well correlatedwith the amount of representations used. The correlation resulted in a value of .52 (p-value = .002) for theconfiguration step. To evaluate the effects of each type of representation on this score, we performed amultiple linear regression. Equation (1) describes the model used to predict students’ score on theconfiguration step (SC) based on the numbers of images, plots, tables, equations, calculations, and charts.Results reveal a significant effect of the use of equations on this stage (p-value < 0.016).
