Session 3260 CQI IN PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF ENGINEERS: Dynamics, Obligations and Myths S. Y. Eidgahy, Ph.D Jefferson Community College ABSTRACT: Professional development or continuing education of practicing engineers hasbecome paramount to our international competitiveness. Whether such educational efforts aredirected at learning new technologies and processes; simply updating existing skills andknowledge, or even completely retraining engineers for new careers; training is now an integralengineering activity. That is why this issue must be under constant
conceptual gains and usingthose gains to motivate development of the math skills needed for application.Bibliography1.Olds, Moskal, and Miller, “Assessment in Engineering Education:Evolution, Approaches, and FutureCollaborations”, Journal of Engineering Education, January 20052.

through photosynthesis by future biomass crops.In 2011, it was discovered that bioenergy was used as an energy source more than oil in Sweden.The Swedish Energy Agency found that 31.7% of the energy used was generated from biomasswhile 30.8% of the energy originated from oil. One of the principal reasons for this increase inbioenergy is the fact that biomass is the primary energy source in the district heating sector, asector that demands more than half of the overall heat demand in residential areas. 7 Figure 5shows the different sources of energy in Sweden in 2011 (Sweden Energy Use 2010, May 10).

two data sets and with a focus on factorsthat have resulted in changes in teaching approach in the years separating the studies. Thefinal section contains our conclusions and outlines areas for future exploration.BackgroundThe approaches to teaching inventory (ATI) has been developed and refined over the lastdecade.1 It has its origins in phenomenographic studies of teachers’ attitudes to teachingand learning in the mid 1990’s. Prosser and Trigwell advance the view that there is afundamental qualitative difference between a student-centric and teacher-centric view of thelearning process [4, page 408]. They argue that a student centered approach to facilitatinglearning focuses on the nature of the learning itself, placing the main emphasis on
presentation of such an equation must necessarily beaccompanied by a definition of the terms along with their units: RMR is the metal removal rate inmm3/s or in3/min, I is the current in amps, and Tm is the melting temperature of the work metal inC or F.Perhaps the most rigorous treatment of units is in the thermal sciences. Most thermodynamics,fluid mechanics, and heat transfer texts use unit conversion factors to demonstrate a rigorouscancellation process in example problems. Students are left with no doubts as to where numberscome from. In spite of the rigor with which units are treated, there is no common non-SI systemused in thermal science texts. Fluid mechanics texts by Gerhardt [5] and Pritchard [12] use theBG system, with the derived mass
was to see if adding a debate format to case study usage, an inductivelearning technique, could motivate students to research topics (read the text book and articles) inaddition to increasing student engagement and learning. Inductive teaching techniques may alsobe called learner-centered or student-centered since they require students take more responsibilityfor their own learning compared to traditional lecture based or deductive teaching methods, can bemore interactive and have been found to promote student engagement.1Debate has been researched as a pedagogical method used to improve critical thinking skills andoral communication skills since the 1990’s.3,4 Learner-centered education programs such asnursing and pharmacy, marketing
theinitial pre-surveys of students enrolled in the 11 of the 13 HBCUs where research was completed atthe beginning of the fall 2015 and spring 2016 semesters and the final post-surveys assessing theirunderstanding of the project and electrical engineering concepts at the end of fall 2015 and spring2016 semesters. The goal of the N S F - f u n d e d project was to increase the number ofhighly qualified and prepared engineering students, particularly African American engineers, aswell as to ensure electrical engineering students and graduates have a better understanding oftechnology and its role in STEM education and the policy associated with it. Another key goal ofthe project was to promote wide spread dissemination and usage of portable hands-on

actualassignments.Introductory ProjectFollowing a class visit by a cancer-surviving individual who provided an in-depth, personaloverview of his cancer experience, the students were tasked with exploring distinctly the diseasepathway, intervention/ device treatment pathway, and the patient pathway for either breast orprostate cancer. Each student selected which of the two types of cancer s/he would explore.Overall, this introductory project had several underlying goals that aimed to lay a foundation forthe entire course. First, this introductory project was to provide opportunities for the students tobuild skills in examining the disease, device, and patient pathways of cancer. In subsequentprojects, students would further refine their skills and apply them to other
explore laminar, transitional and fully turbulentconditions.To determine the volumetric flow rate through the pipe test section, water flowing out ofthe pipe was caught in a measuring cup, and the time required to fill 500 mL measuredwith a stopwatch. The pressure drop along the pipe was determined using the fourmanometers integrated with the pipe and positioned 3.0 inches apart. The uncertainty involumetric flow measurements that ranged between Q = +/- 1 ml/s at low flow rates (10ml/s) to Q = +/- 2 ml/s at high flow rates (30 ml/s). The uncertainty in the pressuremeasurements using the integrated manometers was +/- 2 mm H2O or +/- 20 Pa.The pipe flow/head loss experiment shown in Fig. 3 was characterized by measuring thepressure drop along the

theHispanic female students at the PWI, an interview from a Hispanic female student from theHBCU indicated one situation that contained hidden language. Students at both the HBCU andPWI experienced projected stereotypes; however, the students at the PWI recalled moreencounters perceived as microaggressions. Ascription of intelligence was also prevalent amongstboth sites, and one Black female student at the HBCU explicitly recalled when ascription ofintelligence is most prominent. Students at the HBCU did not discuss examples of silence andmarginalization experiences. Table 3 Excerpts from the data Identified Identity S Quotes from
