Expanding on this sense of teaching as adesign process with constraints, we can consider design-based research as a framework fororganizing research studies in engineering education. There have been relatively few studies inengineering education that characterize themselves as design research studies, but it is anexpanding framework within the education research community broadly4,5. This paper uses onesmall-scale, design-based research study of faculty development to explain the principles andpractices that can make up a design-based research study of teaching and learning.

study in engineering.1. IntroductionThree-dimensional printing is a rapidly developing technology that revolutionizes the design andfabrication process of products by increasing the speed and efficiency in which complex, three-dimensional (3D) objects can be created1,2. However, given the technology is relatively new,there are many aspects to 3D printing that still require optimization in order to achieve a high-quality print within a reasonable time and cost. Many 3D printers extrude the thermoplasticsacrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) or poly lactic acid (PLA) as print materials and create a 3Dobject by extruding many fine layers over one another until the object is complete2. Thesepolymer thermoplastics behave similarly, yet adhere to

There are a number of challenges facing green energymanufacturing from industrial perspective. For example, green energy manufacturing is acomplex and technology-concentrated set of processes; therefore, it requires a very specializedand experienced workforce. In this paper, a LEGO® based project and various “Green EnergyManufacturing (GEM)” leadership workshops, which are used to enhance student’s professionalsuccess, are introduced.

Practical application for teachers and outreach staffMany schools engage in community service or service-learning but often miss an enormousopportunity by not connecting service to engineering or STEM topics. Linking communityservice with engineering or STEM can change the conversation about engineering and increaseinterest for students, their parents and the community. Service opportunities are a way tointroduce early engineering into classes from math, science or technology without the cost ofequipping a lab or purchasing expensive equipment. It is also a way to easily engage practicingengineers from the community.This

Abaté(professor of electrical and computer engineering technology at Onondaga Community CollegeNew York) summarized the learning situation as follows 5.“When I use the term “multitasking,” I refer to an attempt by individuals to engage in severaltasks in rapid linear succession (rather than simultaneously) where at least one of the tasks is aconceptual learning activity……Thus, when a person is distracted, habitual learning actuallytakes over from declarative learning. In this sense, the two types of learning appear to competewith each other. And because procedural learning is more limited in applicability thandeclarative learning, it is “inferior” learning, to

Applied to engineering education, this approach is transformative toSTEM teaching because, at its pedagogical foundation, is the assumption that students areprofessionals the moment they enter their program and should be challenged accordingly.
