Taxonomy [3], [4], which identifies six levels oflearning. From lowest to highest these are: 1. Remember 2. Comprehend 3. Apply 4. Analyze5. Synthesize 6. EvaluateAchieving analysis, synthesis, and evaluation requires active participation from the students.Research shows that student outcomes are improved by engaging in active learning [5], [6]. Thisincludes not only higher grades in courses, but also greater “mastery of higher- versus lower-levelcognitive skills” [6].The present work describes the application of active learning of holistic engineering practice in asophomore-level thermodynamics course sequence. First, the motivation for pursuing thesechanges is discussed, followed by a description of the technologies the author has integrated

For example, some of our technology students are interested in the construction ofresearch equipment and a faculty offers some selections with the encouragement of “transferringto engineering majors”. Some of our students are interested in AI and statistical machinelearning software and that their related projects focus on algorithm development with lab and/orsimulated data. In the face-to-face situation prior to the COVID-19 lockdown, the data sourcewas either data collection in a lab setting or data in a national archive. During the lockdown,using the data in national archives became the only choice in a community college with limitedbudget. Our experience showed that community college students in

For furtherclarification, two subjects are discussed which were researched and published with the helpof SUNY Erie college (ECC) – Mechanical Engineering Technology (MET) students. First subject was the “Failure in Engineering of the Crashed Flight 3407 Aircraft,”which was later published in the Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Automation(JMEA) in June 2016 [6]. The article discusses the engineering issues of the Flight 3407airplane and its crash in Clarence, NY on Feb 12, 2009, reviewing the low power-to-weightratio of the airplane and its inadequacy with respect to the de-icing system of wings in badweather conditions. The article also discusses the inherently flawed propeller
, the inherent research mission of the University cultivatesmany assets which offer value to quite a range of customers. The task of transferring theintellectual and technological products to these customers is far from simple, and in many casesmay require the University to adapt to the culture of the end-user or users. Nowhere is this ideamore applicable than in the high-level education of people, where the product is actually humandevelopment. If this endeavor is undertaken in a more constrained context than is typicallyexpected in a graduate program, for instance, then the University should understand how to tailorthe curriculum to meet the unique objectives of the context. The engineering workplace is undergoing rapid change which
