Thestudents crave new strategies which encompass authentic exploration and learning, visualstimulation and community-based practices [1].Several pedagogical paradigms have been proposed to help better engineering education;Constructivist, constructionist, and action-based learning theories help lay the pedagogicalfoundation needed to adapt instruction in higher education to meet this need [2]. The foundationfrom these theories provides instructional methods that help promote critical-thinking,experimental inquiry and collaboration while the use of technology plays a vital role incontributing to access and manipulation of information along with knowledge retention [3]–[5

IntroductionThis paper presents design, development, and implementation of a new online Engineering Dynam-ics class for post-secondary sophomores. This online class was offered for the first time at StonyBrook University (SBU) in the summer of 2016 to 70 students who came from 11 different uni-versities. For its development, the OSCQR (Open SUNY Course Quality Review) Rubric [1] wasfollowed, which was created by the Open SUNY Center for Online Teaching Excellence (COTE).The OSCQR is an openly licensed rubric that addresses both the instructional design and accessi-bility of an online course. Engineering Dynamics, which deals with the science of motion is generally a core, requiredclass in Mechanical Engineering major at undergraduate level. The

While PYroMat has previously been reported as aclassroom tool, the present study reports on development of a set of online calculators based onthe PYroMat package to eliminate the need for students to learn programming skills alongsidethe thermodynamics content. Results from a survey indicate potential for the tool, butinterpretations are somewhat limited by a small sample size. We believe that dissemination ofthese tools have the potential to facilitate student learning and encourage exploration ofthermodynamics concepts.1.

A 3D arm was printed from a model on the e-Nable website [2] and fitted to the student, who was more than thrilled. The new hand providedthe ability to grasp with fingers by flexing the elbow joint. This allowed the child to hold smallobjects, such as a water bottle, fruit, a book, and even a basketball. With this success, andlearning of this need in the community, the project was expanded with funds from a small grantto build ten more limbs for children in the area. This paper is a presentation of

The findings of this study are useful in informinginstructional design and changes to assessment practices.IntroductionIt has been established that not all forms of feedback are equally effective in promoting learning[1]–[6]. Using only grades to improve learning, for example, is not an effective approach [7],[8]. Black and Wiliam’s review of 250 studies pertaining to formative assessment found thatdescriptive feedback targeted to specific solution errors can improve student learning andretention, particularly for underperforming students, as compared to grades alone [9].There is growing interest in assessment for learning as a conceptual

Although convenient for employers and employees, there remain a number ofquestions regarding effectiveness and quality of distance instruction as compared to that offeredin traditional classrooms. As indicated by many studies exploring student and educatorperceptions regarding distance education [1] [2] [3] [4], the potential for greater convenience,autonomy, and affordability render it ideal for many students.

This assumption naturally leads to the idea that variablesare only correlated because of their common factor [2]. Detailed explanations of the CATME dimensions and the factor analysis method used canbe found in the paper by Loughry, Ohland, and Moore (2007) [3]. Analyzing individualdimensions of teamwork is not unique to the CATME system. Solansky (2010) developed a setof factors to describe teamwork, identifying the five factors of agreeableness, team meanconscientiousness, openness to experience, collectivism, and preference for teamwork [4].Greguras, Robie, and Born (2001) also developed a five factor system of cooperation

Therefore, this research tries to narrow this gap andshed light on an exploration of international group analysis.
