Measure: Evaluated in final CPEN 3850 report • Competency: Students demonstrate ability to generate effective solution(s) to the capstone design problem formulated in CPEN 3850, including identified constraints. Measure: Evaluated in final CPEN 4850 report [1]Thus, in order to determine whether students can both identify and apply appropriate standardsand constraints, and apply these in an engineering design, it was decided that it was necessary toevaluate students continuously working on a project; therefore, measuring in sequentialsemesters was specified.

opportunities for undergraduate laboratory instructionAbstract:This paper outlines a two-semester senior engineering design project that was carried out tostudy a moderately well-defined chemical reaction involving sodium borohydride in aqueousconditions to generate hydrogen for fuel cell applications. Sodium borohydride hydrolysis hasbeen studied extensively since the early 1940’s as a promising hydrogen storage material, whichprovides a content-rich study area for engineering design coursework and undergraduatelaboratory experiences related to energy, hydrogen, and energy storage potential. Throughout thetwo-semester project design course, a two-student engineering team carried out literature reviewsand bench work that lead them to investigate
globally focused experiences outscored those who did not.Notably, the mean EGPI score of students who reported study abroad was significantly higherthan that of those who did not study abroad. In contrast, participation in second-languagecourses, projects or internships abroad, or having an international roommate did not reveal astatistically significant difference in students’ EGPI or GPI performance.Stepwise regression analysis was used to determine potential relationships among studentexperiences and their global preparedness. The regression results indicated that the combinationof such experiences including engineering focused service learning, study abroad, and non-engineering course(s) with a global focus accounted for approximately 12% of

As students review each other‟s screencasts, their own thinking and metacognition will be re-evaluated from another learner‟s perspective who is not necessarily a teacher or a textbookauthor. Learning from peers is more authentic and more sustainable than learning from atextbook or from a teacher17. In addition, receiving peers‟ comments on their own screencastadds to these metacognitive items that will eventually help improve their CAD knowledge andskills. In this National Science Foundation (NSF) project, two mechanical engineering faculty andtwo learning scientists have collaborated to implement a student-centered instructional strategy,namely peer-generated screencast strategy in teaching CAD in the undergraduate

, nearly half (45%) of all high school seniors indicated an intent to study scienceand engineering (S&E), yet in the 2015 survey of full-time undergraduates, just more than onethird (37%) of undergraduate enrollments were in S&E programs, indicating there exists adisconnect between enrollment and graduation rates. In 2015, out of nearly two-millionbachelor’s degrees earned; less than one-hundred thousand were in engineering (5.2%)(NSB Appendix Table 2-21 [2]). “We are graduating fewer engineers now than 20 years ago,both in terms of absolute numbers and as a percentage of all college degrees” [3].
