artifacts.Due to the smaller sample size of participants afforded in this research – participation of studentsin co-curriculars is a limiting factor – we employed a quasi-experimental design. A control groupwould serve as a measure of no treatment nor exposure to new practices – just business as usual.Our assumption is that a pre-PT problem solving discussion assessment serves the same purposeas a post-assessment of a control group. That is, the students in the program are sophomore, junior,and senior undergraduates, who already bring to the study an established approach to ill-structuredproblems that has been developed over their academic careers thus far. We therefore treat the pre-PT problem solving discussion data as the control group baseline for

: Online Teacher Professional Learning (Evaluation)IntroductionTo be successful in a 21st century global economy, engineers must develop a broad knowledgebase that allows them to contribute to diverse interdisciplinary teams and to creatively solveproblems faced by humanity [1]. In undergraduate and graduate engineering programsthroughout the United States, more higher education institutions are beginning to implement bio-inspired design (BID) into their engineering curriculum to better prepare their eventual graduatesfor a cross-disciplinary career (e.g., [2]; [3]). To do so, programs throughout the United Stateshave begun to integrate BID in various ways into their undergraduate and graduate-levelcurriculum, including through small modules, full

But I was just in a meeting and voiced my concern.In addition to identifying and communicating the need for important tests, James also gave severaladditional examples which emphasized that ethical engineering includes transparency, decision-making, and proper reporting. These examples were less detailed and presented more as a runthrough of different ways he has experienced these aspects in his career. One example was duringhis time as a postdoc when made decisions about using animal subjects

challenge for sociotechnical engineering instruction is the evaluation of itseffects. Some of the difficulty results from the breadth of educators’ goals. Most of these effortsdo not define specific desired outcomes beyond increasing students’ ability to understand “thetechnical” and “the social” as deeply connected, and to appreciate that sociotechnical thinking isan important part of engineering work. That is, sociotechnical engineering programs andinterventions rarely prescribe desired career paths or other, more easily quantifiable goals fortheir students. Attempts to measure the success of sociotechnical thinking contextualizationtherefore require ascertaining how students’ thoughts about their work and identities haveshifted, if at all

Both instructors feel this may be attributed to the ability of theonline students to work more effectively in teams than the face to face students.Both instructors believe that the interviews are a vital component to the course and allow thestudents to not only understand what a practicing engineer does in his or her career, but theinterviews add relevancy to the course material.

Yet elementary teachers often have little preparation or background to teach engineeringand need support to be able to integrate engineering design into elementary science classroomsettings. Thus, research must examine the ways that elementary teachers verbally supportengineering practices. This paper explores how elementary teachers verbally support students’engagement in engineering practices in an NGSS-aligned unit. In particular, this paper comparesthe same teachers implementing the same curriculum across two class sections with differentstudent populations. By exploring teacher talk across two different student contexts, we aim tohelp the field

This paper proposes to extend a typical mechatronics course beyond traditionalengineering topics, and to modernize the mechatronics instructions with complementary quantumengineering topics. With the recent rapid advances in quantum technologies such as quantumcommunications, sensing, computers, and algorithms, it is imperative that next generation ofengineers be trained in quantum technologies, and prepare them for their future careers in the ever-changing industry in such areas. Furthermore, due to such progress and advances in the fieldsassociated with the applications of quantum mechanics, the integration of quantum technologieswith classical mechanical systems will be inevitable both in terms of educational and
