Paper ID #36737I Think We Should Break Up...Class, That IsMatthew Swenty (Dr.) Dr. Swenty obtained his bachelor's and master's degrees in Civil Engineering from Missouri S&T and then worked as a bridge designer at the Missouri Department of Transportation. He returned to school to obtain his Ph.D. in Civil Engineering at Virginia Tech followed by re-search work at the Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center on concrete bridges. He is currently a professor of civil engineering and the Jackson-Hope Chair in Engineering at the Virginia Military Institute. He teaches engineering mechanics and structural
noted thatwe advocate for inventiveness irrespective of patenting outcomes or the development of world-changing technology; we believe that cultivating inventiveness early, often, and across diversepopulations will result in these distal outcomes and a more diverse set of future leaders, but thesewill still be a small subset of the inventions and inventiveness that is cultivated through theseefforts.The inventiveness of Student WorkWe define inventiveness of products as a combination of novelty, unpredictability, creativity, anduniqueness to the individual(s) who created it.Novelty: A novel product is one that does not significantly resemble existing solutions and/or onethat is not inherently obvious upon examining the problem formulation
work is essential in order to move towards contextual listening practices and ethicalintercultural communication practices. This approach also supports Handford et al.’s [20] notionof “small cultures” and resisting the idea that culture is only an attribute of “foreign people.” Byreflecting on the various cultures they are a part of, students can begin to understand how theirown worldviews influences their approach to engineering (p. 172).In addition, the Design Justice Network offers a series of principles to reframe the way designersthink about how they work with those who are affected by what they create. As we noted earlier,artifacts of engineering culture do not focus on the affected community or, for that matter, theoppressive systems
/social dualism. Social concerns cannot be presented as secondary to engineeringeducation or as an addition to squeeze in when there is a second of free time. In a review editorial,Berdanier [10] acknowledges that there is precedent to integrate the humanities and social sciencesinto engineering education and was called for by founders like Charles Mann (1918) and WilliamWickenden (1920’s). Despite 100 years of various calls to do so, the integration has not gone wellas engineering is perceived as a hard/applied discipline versus a soft/pure field such ascommunication or sociology [10]. Sticking to this distinction allows for the lessons that pertain to“dealing with people” to sit at the margins of the engineering curriculum. Arguably, these need

Posterior distributions ofthe model parameters with 95% credible intervals are shown in Figure 7.Overall, the model indicates that the treatment of flipping the classroom had minimal effect onstudent end of term exam performance from previous years and that on average, the flippedclassroom had a slightly negative effect on this student sample.

Variation in treatment effects is significantly higher than other parameters.Time Spent Preparing for ClassThe Civil and Mechanical Engineering Department at the U. S.

survey to identify which textbook features students and faculty desired for thepurpose of digital book creation from lecture videos. There were 6 relevant factors listed below,from a validated national survey, the College Student Assessment of Textbooks (CSAT), tomeasure in our study [10]. 1. Practical application to student’s lives and convenience (P). 2. Accessibility (A). 3. Graphs and tables (G). 4. Study aid use (S). 5. Instructor use of the textbook (I). 6. Ease of use (E).Table 1 shows the corresponding multiple questions for each of these factors.The survey consisted of Likert scale questions that measured the above factors, and questions onstudent demographics. The Likert scale questions were organized into two groups. The

And so it was through that lens, I went and saw things in 2017.Familial Capital Anchored HE Career Goals to Stories of HopeAs seen in Jeffry’s story, for many students an increased understanding of HE comes withincreased understanding of all the barriers to infrastructure equally.

Our partners at PlanInternational initiated an endeavor that focuses on educating girls around the globe. Theirframework places the students as equal stakeholders in their programs, this allows the girls tobuild their confidence and become “central drivers of change” [19]. This socioecologicalframework is meant to support the girls in impacting their communities and eventually thesocieties they live in.

, there is now thechallenge of how might it be possible to provide the same transformational experience to futurestudents in in-person classes, avoiding going back to labs where data collection, plotting andcomparison to theory seem to be main outcome. Rather the goal should be to find ways forstudents to encounter challenges and failures, overcome them and make their success a point ofpride and deep, lasting learning.References[1] L. D.
