The specific aim of thecourse was to provide students from diverse backgrounds with a curriculum designed to buildcommunity, introduce students to research faculty, and to counteract a perceived lack of researchreadiness. The student learning goals for the course included providing opportunities for studentsto: study key historical examples of excellent research; interact with faculty researchers whoperform projects across the STEM disciplines; and to explore the similarities and differencesbetween

an initial investigation of the impact the ConnectedLearning and Integrated Course Knowledge (CLICK) approach has had on students’ motivation,engineering identity, and learning outcomes. CLICK is an approach that leverages VirtualReality (VR) technology to provide an integrative learning experience in the IndustrialEngineering (IE) curriculum. To achieve this integration, the approach aims to leverage VRlearning modules to simulate a variety of systems. The VR learning modules offer an immersiveexperience and provide the context for real-life applications. The virtual simulated systemrepresents a theme to transfer the system concepts and knowledge across multiple IE courses aswell as connect the experience with real-world applications. The

Model-eliciting activities (MEAs) are an impactful example of apedagogical approach used in first-year engineering to teach mathematical modeling skills [3].Even though there are some established approaches, there is still a need for more meaningfulways to teach modeling throughout the engineering curricula and especially in first-yearengineering courses [1].Developing computational thinking skills is something that has been emphasized in engineeringeducation more recently and aligns with this call for curriculum that explicitly teachesmathematical and

/repositories.Introduction—Educational Research Using LabsLaboratory projects can be strategically used to improve the Electrical and ComputerEngineering (ECE) curriculum across all four years, according to National Science Foundation(NSF) research done by Chu [1]. The aim is to enhance student learning and better preparegraduates for new challenges. Chu’s viewpoint is that a good engineer must not only becomeknowledgeable in certain content areas (components, learned in individual courses), but also beable to apply and integrate that content to solve complex, real-world problems.Motivation for Chu’s work came from an earlier 5-year study of engineering education [2].

graduation rate is only 50%, withhalf of these students leaving engineering after the first year. Many of these students lack first-hand knowledge of the wonderfully creative and diverse types of work in which engineers areengaged. The idea is to introduce students to a wide variety of practicing engineers who are verypassionate about and fulfilled in their work – giving the students more reasons why they shouldstick it out early on in the engineering major when the time commitment to their studies issignificant and the first year curriculum is less engineering courses and more math, chemistry,physics and general education courses. As an additional note, we also simultaneously instituted acollege-wide mentoring program in which all of our beginning

Data collected from teachers and students in 2019,including wind turbine field trips in Fall 2019, have continued to support evidence that students’interest in STEM topics continues beyond the day of the field trip. In fact, many of the teacherswho bring their students to NU STEM field trips have been coming back each year for severalyears. What distinguishes NU STEM field trips from other science field trip offerings in the areais an integrated experience with engineering. Given the popularity of these field trips and thediverse range of topics that teachers can choose from, additional data from students and teacherswill continue to be collected in future

However, the faculty’sassessment led to an agreement that students may better appreciate technical and managerialairport concepts if they had a better understanding of the airplane itself and the airspace theynavigate that surrounds airports. At the time of this discussion, the professional pilot studentswere not targeted since their curriculum already included extensive coverage of these concepts.

Similarly, one wouldhave to be willful to miss an equally steady drumbeat of calls for improved ethics in engineeringand computer science education.However, one can make the argument that simply offering new or more content related to ethicsin engineering education is not enough. With an eye on engineering a response to these issues,we propose that systemic changes are warranted including who presents and guides ethicscontent, how students are brought face-to-face with ethics and how ethics content is threadedinto a curriculum, and how the real and existential outcomes of engineering decisions areassessed both in design stages and in professional applications.This case study report describes efforts to introduce ethics
