Design in Engineering Education

students' interest and motivation in engineering are to use project-based learningto learn in a more contextualized environment and improve the sense of ownership inengineering through engineering design tasks [3]. Engineering design is a systematic anditerative process of planning, modeling, testing, and improving products and processes. Due toits complexity and open-endedness, appropriate ways of engaging students in engineering designare needed for quality teaching and learning. Further studies have found that interacting inengineering design using a design-based learning framework to let students use a CAD simulatedenvironment to work on several engineering design challenges will increase their engagement,motivation, and interest in learning

In WGG, making multiple attempts and engaging in aredesign was rewarded. The figure in Appendix A presents an example of the design challengeand assessment criteria used by youth to evaluate their design. Youth are encouraged to use theassessment criteria as they planned for their redesign.Learning Facilitators stressed that they found a connection between youth engagement and easeof use. Youth did not mind and often enjoyed complex design challenges. However, they wantedtheir learning about the challenge, using the technology and answering any questions, to beeasily done

Mariabella’s experiences offer insight into what it might take to engage more youth frommarginalized backgrounds in engineering. Designing and developing ways for youths’knowledge and experiences to not only be elicited, but also have an impact is one direction thatmay support more youth connecting with engineering. Borrowing from science education: …lesson planning for agency requires teachers not only to allow space for students to exercise control over their own commitments to knowledge, but also to imagine students as

The options included online (asynchronous materials completed with time andplace flexibility), remote (synchronous, scheduled meetings that students can attend virtually), orhybrid (classes that have face-to-face meeting times, but offer students opportunities to completemost activities virtually and/or remotely).

Emergency remote teaching (ERT) isdefined as “a temporary shift of instructional delivery to an alternate delivery mode due to crisiscircumstances” [2, p. 7]. Emergency remote teaching is distinct from traditional online teachingand learning, in which virtual experiences and online instruction have been planned from thebeginning [2, 3].

Whilea transition to virtual learning can eliminate the spread of the virus, such transition cannot be takenlightly by everyone. A report by Allen and Seaman [1] indicates that institutions with onlineofferings in 2014 to 2015 are just as positive about it as ever, but those who have no onlineofferings say that it will not be part of their plans for the future. Moreover, academic leaders atinstitutions with online offerings have consistently held a more favorable opinion of the learningoutcomes for online education than those at institutions with no offerings

As the summer of 2020 approached our EEdepartment pondered how to implement its fall laboratory courses appropriately without thestudents meeting in the university’s laboratories, as the university’s response to the pandemicrequired. We considered conducting the laboratories using only virtual, simulated laboratoryexperiments; although, limiting the students to simulated laboratories does not afford the studentthe opportunity to work with real hardware and to face, identify, and overcome realisticimplementation issues. The latter we believe are essential components of the intended studentlaboratory experience. So we had to come up with an alternate laboratory hardware plan andtake action in preparation for the

It has not been until recently that he decided to formalize the process bydeveloping a comprehensive assessment plan to evaluate student perceptions of this approachand their engagement in the program. This assessment protocol was approved by the InstitutionalReview Board of Penn State as listed at the end of this paper. The first formal assessmentoccurred after the Fall 2019 term and was focused on comparing a subset of traditional and newexperiments. A second focus of this assessment was to better understand student perceptions onthe Microcontroller and EMG system. The author had planned to continue and expand theassessment
