: 8 hours.• Technology-Enabled Education. Uses of computers to enhance student learning experiences and to promote teaming and active learning in the classroom. Target Faculty: Engineering, Mathematics, Science. Duration: 4 hours.• Curriculum Integration. Integration of the basic disciplines in the freshman engineering program—namely, math, chemistry, physics, engineering problem solving, engineering design graphics, and English. The methodology used in the design, development and implementation of the Foundation Coalition freshman integrated pilot. Four successfully implemented modules are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of integration: (1) ethics, (2) curve-fitting, (3) conservation and accounting, and (4

Further, it is essential to include a variety of realistic constraints, such as economic factors, safety, reliability, aesthetics, ethics, and social impact. ”In the engineering curricula at The University of Iowa, which are similar to those at other universitiesin the U.S., undergraduate students are exposed to engineering design concepts in several courses.Their design experience at the undergraduate level culminates with the capstone design course in thesenior year2,3. The goal of the capstone design course is to integrate all knowledge gained by thestudents

Students study a range of topics in this course, including survival skills(using library and internet resources, email, ethics, team skills, etc.); the engineering designprocess; engineering graphics, drawings, and solid modeling; the role of engineering analysis;and others. The topics in this course are integrated with a reverse engineering experience wherestudent teams choose a mechanical toy or other device (e.g., a mechanical clock), predict howthe device works, dissect it, analyze the functionality and simple physical principles, predict how

learning style strengths improves their achievement, self- esteem, and attitude toward learning.11) Every individual is entitled to counseling and instruction that responds to his/her style of learning.12) A viable learning style model must be grounded in theoretical and applied research, periodically evaluated, and adapted to reflect the developing knowledge base.13) Implementation of learning style practices must adhere to accepted standards of ethics. (p. 1)Assessing an individual’s learning style is vital to the teaching and learning process. Aneffective match between a student’s style and a teacher’s style may lead to improved studentattitudes and higher student achievement. Many different learning style assessment models
