An initial reading of TF-3’s original “1-6”Criterion 3 student learning outcomes that the task force put forward as an alternative to “a-k” reveals thefollowing commitments:11  A strong linear model of applied science  A tendency to view engineering as an experimental, laboratory-based discipline.  The

The key question he is investigating is what are the principles underlying rapid and robust concept exploration when the analysis models are incomplete and possibly inaccurate? His quest for answers to the key question are anchored in three projects, namely, Integrated Realization of Robust, Resilient and Flexible Networks Integrated Realization of Engineered Materials and Products Managing Organized and Disorganized Complexity: Exploration of the Solution Space His current education focus is on creating and implementing, in partnership with industry, a curriculum for

This was done in the hope of avoiding any complexdesign for which building a model in the simulation software would be too challenging oroutright impossible – for example in FEHT it is possible to solve a problem which can be easilybuilt using Cartesian coordinate system or axi-symmetric geometry in cylindrical coordinatesystem. However, a mixture of two, for example, a rectangular prism envelope with cylindricalobject inside would not be easily modeled as the software package is not versatile enough likecommercial CAD or FEA packages.

In 1959, JohnDewey came out with one of the first formal articles discussing project-based learning. In it heexplained how he taught students in his laboratory through a process of inquiry, where he gavethem real-world scenarios and problems to solve. When the students felt engaged and invested ina real, legitimate project, Dewey observed that the students gained greater understanding of thematerial3. Today it is commonly accepted that project based learning environments possess fivemain components: a driving question, exploration of the driving question through authentic,situated inquiry, a community of collaboration that includes
