Technology (ABET) (2006) adapted two cognitivemodels for incorporation into engineering classrooms. Incorporation of Bloom’s taxonomy and amodification of the Kolb Learning Cycle were necessary to show alignment with ABET criteria.The 2006 ABET Criteria marked a decisive change in the direction of engineering education.While earlier calls for change were in the form of recommendations, the ABET criteriarepresented a requirement for continued accreditation. This joined with the specific talents andrecognition engineer educators bring to the incorporation of cognitive science in the classroomand the relative newness of the subject matter, make this a productive area of study.The purpose of this study is to synthesize, through a meta-analysis study

-made artifacts, the core process of technology. By working through designchallenges from several popular Engineering Teaching Kits, participants will gain experiencewith the engineering design process, observe how the design challenges incorporate learning ofrelevant scientific and mathematics principles, and learn the concepts and tools that will enablethem to develop and incorporate engineering design challenges into their own curriculum. Theselearning objectives will be addressed through team-based design activities. While appropriate for Page 18.30.3K-12, the focus will be on grades 6 – 8 (middle school).2015-ASEE-K12-Proposal-lgr-skd-1.docx

Such inclusion will help to place engineering students in a morecompetitive position for their future career goals.Intr oductionThere has been a continued integration of information systems into all fields of engineering,especially industrial engineering. Several academic departments have changed their names toreflect this integration and others have started courses that integrate information systems intotheir traditional areas of teaching and research. Information systems (IS) are powerful andvaluable tools that support communication and decision making in an organization1. They useinformation technology (hardware and software) to capture

In the past these simulators were powered by largemainframe or minicomputers, while today they can be supplied with data from workstations andhigh-end desktop machines. These advances in computer technology now allow the same fidelity of the full-scopesimulation to be brought into the classroom. In nuclear plants operators must have a knowledgeand understanding of the fundamental processes, as well as the procedures required for plantoperation. Other personnel in the plant also benefit from a greater understanding of how theplant operates. The same is true of academic education in nuclear engineering, where theemphasis is on the understanding of theory. However, this type of

The discussion section is used to support team projects.The learning outcomes for this course are that, at the conclusion of the course, students will beable to: 1. Understand logical processes and how they are used by computers and other engineering technology. 2. Break down engineering problems into logical steps and code those steps in computer languages. 3. Write programming code from scratch and problem solve errors until a goal is achieved. 4.

The new designs from ecological engineering are generally less expensive or have lower energy intensity than traditional approaches and they often result in more environmentally sound systems or decisions. These qualities of ecological engineering designs (less economic cost and greater environmental value) are bringing more attention to the discipline from decision makers, who seek to implement the designs, and from educators, who must decide how to incorporate the information into university curricula. In this paper the efforts at the University of Maryland towards developing an ecological engineering curriculum are described. There are two purposes of the paper: 1) we
