curriculum. The electrical engineering design curriculum is enhanced byoffering the integrated circuit design course elective that provides real, practical, handson experience in circuit design for the graduating seniors. Such projects can either beused as a stand alone cap-stone design or to assist the student to accomplish amultidisciplinary design projects in collaboration with other engineering disciplines. IntroductionABET program criteria for electrical engineering curriculum require that the curriculummust provide the depth and breadth across the range of engineering topics implied by thetitle of the program [1]. The acquired knowledge in the program should allow the studentto analyze and design complex

The use ofthis method helps preserve the integrity of the narratives while maintaining the reliability andvalidity of the statements [22]. In this paper, we are communicating the narratives to our readersbased on their (in)experience with WILs. Their stories were tied together by identifyingoverarching themes of students’ experiences and attitudes amongst the 18 participants,highlighting the commonalities resulting from their (in)access to WILs.We used an adapted framework of identity trajectory theory to understand what factorsinfluenced students' access to WILs and how WILs influenced their identity development overtime.

A lot of emphasis has recently been focused on integrating PBLexperiences into the undergraduate curriculum, particularly with an interdisciplinary component [1 – 3].Incorporating PBL into courses

siloed workplaces. CTE’s are typicallyorganized in terms of predefined career pathway clusters (e.g., Manufacturing, InformationTechnology, Arts, A/V Technology). In each pathway, students get the skills that have beenidentified within that given pathway and are taught the specific set of ways those skills areintegrated with one another through hands-on classroom scenarios along with on-site training.While there are obvious benefits in training students in the aforementioned model, we shouldaugment existing CTE programs such that it emphasizes contextual, horizontal integration ofskills needed for small-scale, diverse production. In such an approach, students are able to learnin a way where each piece of more knowledge added is integrated into

. Therefore, it is necessary toeducate students not only in the technical aspects of security, but also in the situation-dependent way that it is applied. Such an education would provide students with theskills needed to enter the field and the in-depth understanding to be upwardly mobile. Tothis end, the curriculum is being developed to provide a mix of both technical skills andbroad knowledge. This is present both in the course material, and our commitments toutilizing the strengths UCF has to offer (National Center for Forensic Studies, PublicSafety Technology Center, etc.) and developing tight integration with other departments(Criminal Justice, Business, etc.).

are few incentives to work with others which restrict theiropportunities to develop communication skills and teamwork. Students become less critical whenit comes to thinking through complex problems because they are not encouraged to do so underthis pedagogical framework. Although many institutes still use the traditional approach, manyothers explore and integrate other pedagogies into their curriculums. Institutes recognize thetechnological change and complexity of the contemporary industry 4.0 paradigm requires a highlyskilled and well-rounded generation of professionals [14].

This is a follow-up study to a preliminary study that was conducted duringthe previous semester on a quality control course. The preliminary study implemented twopedagogical methods: a traditional Instructor-Guided method and an active-learning Think-Pair-Share method. The study resulted in no statistically significant differences between the twomethods. Therefore, for this study, we modified the traditional method, identified as ModifiedInstructor-Guided, and added two new active-learning methods, Flipped Classroom and Problem-Based Learning, in place of Think-Pair-Share.
