Students in the aerospace major are required to take the softwareengineering course or an electrical circuits course.Undergraduate engineering students must have mastery in engineering theory and concepts.Employers tell us that it is equally important for aerospace engineers to have teamwork skills andthe ability to communicate systematically with electrical, computer, software and systemsengineers to be successful in the workforce. In order to prepare students for a career in theaerospace industry, it is important for the students to experience and understand real worldchallenges and problems. Pedagogically

Therefore students taking thiscourse have a wide range of capabilities, varied preparation, and different levels of motivationthat entail a more complex teaching strategy than a traditional course would normally require.Moreover, retention rate may severely be affected if struggling students were not adequatelymotivated to continue their pursuit of an engineering career. With this in mind, faculty teachingthis course decided to make

first-year students at CU near the beginning of their secondsemester in spring 2009, only 11% of the EVEN majors indicated that their understanding ofengineering as a career was “very clear” before they enrolled; 7% were “not at all clear”; theaverage rating was 3.2 on a scale of 1 to 5 (very clear). The primary sub-discipline areas ofinterest among first year EVEN students at CU has changed significantly over the past 4 yearsthat we have collected this data. In 2006, 34% of the students were interested in air and 34% inwater; in 2009 this shifted to 37% interest in energy, 23% water, 14% remediation, and only 5%air.

As a Graduate Associate, pursuing a doctoral degree at the University of Arizona, he was uniquely positioned as both a calculus teacher and as a student taking courses in applied mathematics. He prepared and attended lectures, concurrently, which developed his acute sensitivity to differences

Overall, the students’ feedbackon CPBL has been very positive. Most students considered the in-class projects the mostvaluable and helpful parts in their learning. Through the in-class projects, they not only gainedbetter understanding of the course material and the design process, but also developed strongerinterest in engineering careers. Nevertheless, the assessment findings also indicated a fewchallenges to be addressed.
