Overall, RU students preferred the second casestudy undertaken in the course, the Chick-fil-A case study.

Each group was assigned one it had to defend.  Because I can see this situation working out in a future career/company situation.One student described the Chick-fil-A case study as “useful” in spite of a few perceiveddrawbacks.

Mathematicians and Scientists Teaching Engineering Courses: Practices, Advantages, and ConcernsAbstract:Engineering is highly intertwined with science and mathematics. The connection between thethree fields of engineering; and mathematics and science is illustrated based on the commonlyknown and ABET definitions of mathematics and science with those of engineering. Anevidence of this connectivity lies in STEM which is a recent field that has been highly visible inthe last twenty years. It stands for science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Studentshave been noticeably swayed away from these crossing disciplines for various reasons. STEMwas partially created to attract students back to these careers again.Discussions are

Interleaved practice has beendemonstrated to improve student learning and retention of technical skills, though the literatureon this practice is smaller than others [5].Interleaved practice involves practicing already-learned material along with newly learnedmaterial. When all homework or quiz problems are bunched together, students expect that everyproblem must be a variant of the skill they are practicing. However, when homework or quizproblems draw from mixed material, students practice thinking through which solution methodsto use and how to apply what they know [5], [11].

Teaming conflicts occasionally occur, but surprisingly, group dynamic issues have been far less prominent for this project than in the other courses that this instructor has taught. To gain some perspective on team dynamics, this instructor has a prompt at the end of the final exam asking the student how they would divide up a $1, 000 bonus for the work done on the design project amongst the members of the group. In this instructor’s experience, very few students indicate a significant deviation from an

Decision makersmust plan and take some form of adaptive action (including no action or deferred action) toaddress the impacts of climate change. These actions tend to be informed by complex modelinganalyses, and it is often difficult to communicate the modeling results as well as the advantagesand disadvantages of different actions to stakeholders and decision makers. It is equally if notmore difficult to communicate these concepts to civil and environmental engineering studentswho will be confronted with similar decisions in their future careers.
