Engineering Leadership Development

alack of understanding during classroom activities [11]. Other studies have suggested that there isno significant differences in the learning outcomes of students in traditional lecture coursesversus flipped courses and that those in less affluent areas may have difficulty with accessing thetechnology needed to complete the course [10].The studies identified above are relevant to engineering education and to specific engineeringdisciplines. As engineering education requires soft-skill development to meet industry needs, thequestion arises as to the effectiveness of the flipped classroom technique in engineeringleadership courses. However, the exploration of a flipped classroom strategy implemented in anengineering leadership course is not found

Curriculum Guidelines [2], the task of coveringsoftware engineering is still daunting. These guidelines define 18 Knowledge Areas three ofwhich, Software Development Fundamentals (SDF), Software Engineering (SE), and SocialIssues and Professional Practice (SP), contain knowledge that falls into the software engineeringrealm. Guideline comments identify the SE and SP knowledge areas as specific curricula areaswhere teamwork and communication soft skills will be learned and practiced. The SoftwareEngineering Knowledge Area, which at 14 pages is the longest non-cross-cutting KnowledgeArea in Computer Science 2013, identifies 60 Core topics with 69 Learning Outcomes, and 54Elective topics with 56 Learning Outcomes. It will be a difficult syllabus design

credit and not graded as a quiz led to anenvironment of low or, no risk, and probably lowered the barriers of reluctance. Students whoscored better gained leadership skills, reinforced their own mastery, and felt some sense ofaccomplishment via contributing to the success of a fellow student. In addition, the higherscoring students were probably motivated by the fact that since their extra credit score wascoupled with a lower scoring one, a positive remediation extra credit score could make adifference between a plus or minus on their overall semester grade. In absolute terms, it alsoelevated their soft-skills for job interviews, presentations, etc. as survey results indicate inSection 5. For the PBA, the quizzes included various questions for

assess in a mass-production fashion (Hugo, Brennan, 2016). What about teachingnon-technical engineering courses online to hundreds or thousands of students?Of the 11 ABET student outcomes and the 12 Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board’s(CEAB) graduate attributes, about half are “technical / hard skills” and half are “professional /soft skills” (ABET, 2018 & CEAB, 2017). The student outcomes for professional skills arequalitative in nature. Therefore, they require qualitative assessment because of the wide range ofpossible solutions inside the gray zone (Shuman, 2005). How can hundreds of students achievethese outcomes in an online course without sacrificing the quality of teaching and learning andrigour of assessment?In Spring &

These mindsets characterize part of thebroader culture of engineering and manifest themselves in the ways that engineering work isorganized: from the reduction of a complex project into a set of smaller components, valuingaccountability of work and success on project components, often hierarchical organization inteams, valuing technical skills over “soft” skills such as collaboration and communication, andthe devaluing of engineering work focused on social welfare

I can cover a lot of ground without taking a lot of time in class.Anna – The best learning activity is one that aligns well to the learning objective. One flexible,low-prep activity is the minute paper. It engages every member of the class as individuals, andyou can use their responses as the basis for
