Figure 1: Elements of Students' Success [1]In practice, peer tutoring has been utilized to support students in large introductory classes, suchas math, chemistry, and biology, with little-to-no support in engineering classes. Tutoringservices that target lower level engineering courses have been limited to individual attempts orclub organizations, e.g., IEEE and HKN. Additionally, limited studies are evaluating generaltutoring services in higher education [2].In 2017, the Electrical and Computer Engineering department at California State University,Chico established a tutoring center to provide drop-in tutoring

). Research has shown that implementing DLI inother subjects, such as history, has led to students showing greater mastery of historical thinking,increased ability to transfer historical knowledge to other contexts, and improved readingcomprehension compared to peers that did not receive DLI [5], cf. [6], [7]. Similar studies havebeen conducted in science [8].Research on disciplinary literacy suggests that use of DLI in engineering may increase students’abilities to engage in engineering thinking as well as lessen literacy-based barriers that preventwomen and underrepresented students from pursuing STEM pathways. To accomplish this goal,a robust model of DLI in engineering must be developed and disseminated into K-16 classroompractice.BackgroundThis

Students will beexpected to write a report with detailed description of all steps taken during the development ofthe prosthetic limb.Once we perfect the prosthetic arm, the same process can be applied to development of otherlimbs such as arms or legs. This project will benefit patients with disabilities and improve theirday-to-day lives at a fraction of the cost of current solutions.MotivationThe purpose of this project is to help low-income families’ children who have a disabled handand to expand students’ awareness of societal needs. With this project, students demonstrate thelearning and knowledge gained from the different sources, such as using Arduino board to designa myoelectric prosthetic arm. It is therefore important to show the

Given four lab exercises each term, each student is responsible for writing at least two ofthe reports, while the other partner at a minimum helps with the experimental setup and dataacquisition during the lab meeting. The students usually have one week to write-up their finalreport. The student who is not responsible for the writing of a specific lab is often of limited helpduring post-lab analysis of data, and is often not prepared for the material prior to coming to thelab

disabilities. Design is an integral part of engineering education at Olin College of Engineering. In Olin College’s largely project-based curriculum, students spend much of their time in design teams. These courses can present barriers for students with disabilities who are entitled to the same access to learning resources, including classroom culture, as their peers. Project-based courses present a wide range of challenges for students with disabilities, including, but not limited to, the ability to fully participate in hands-on learning and as a contributing team member. As larger numbers of students with identified non-visible disabilities enter engineering schools, and engineering schools increasingly adopt project-based design courses, the

Those interpersonal and professional skills better prepare them for industry jobs. All the students participating in UR were more successful in job searches as compared to their peers. • Faculty also benefitted from UR, especially with more teaching loads at primarily undergraduate institutes. The findings from this study suggests that both faculty and students can be benefitted by engaging undergraduate students early in their college career and engaging them longer in the project

Early in thesemester, students tended to report some difficulty managing conflicts related to team tasks, butby the end of the semester, significantly fewer teams did so.We also describe an asset-based modification we made to the teams in the senior capstone

While this may be an obvious place to utilizeScrum, it should actually be taught across the engineering curriculum. For example, it has beenshown that technical writing is a skill that ought to be taught and reinforced across multipleengineering courses and years [11,12]. For any project management technique to be really useful,we should start teaching it early and reintroduce it often. For these reasons, we have beenimplementing Scrum methodology across several years of our ECE undergraduate program.2.1
