span, studies have shown that interspersing active learning throughout alecture increases attentiveness of students [17]. Thus there is clearly a place for simple one- tothree-minute student engagement activities. Additionally, there are those moments when a morecomplex and nuanced activity is in order to demonstrate or emphasize course content. Theseactivities may require anywhere between a quarter to a full class period. Finally, there are thoselearning moments where a simulation of real world problem solving or discovery is in order.These are activities that can take a substantial amount of class time or even span multiple classperiods.As the faculty development facilitation team began to plan and organize the structure of acomprehensive

Problem solving skills are developedthrough a series of courses that teach the foundational knowledge while developing engineering“Habits of Mind” [2], which are defined as modes of thinking in which STEM students developstrategies to transfer their existing knowledge to new contexts. The breadth of biomedicalengineering demands nimble, systematic problem-solving strategies, a core component ofEngineering “Habits of Mind.”Here, we present a plan using a fading scaffold between five core interconnected

Accurate predictors of student performance early in the semestermay be used to induce positive reinforcement on the student. The main question guiding thisstudy is the following: can student final performance be accurately predicted based on tests ofprevious chunks of material? If such predictions are accurate, action plans can be put into placein cases where performance follows declining or unusual

He explained this by saying, “I feel like a lot of engineering would be hands-on work.Like if you had a specific engineering class, um, it would be very hands-on, um, in terms ofdesigning and chemistry has a lot of hands-on stuff, but those are more scientific processes.

This method is commonly used for through-hole design PCBs and can alsowork with surface-mount components, although it requires more planning in the case ofdouble-sided designs. However, overheating during wave soldering is a significant risk thatcan damage both the PCB and components. Careful monitoring and temperature control areessential to ensure a

Thekit provides instructions to build a mobile robot with a simple arm on top. Using this kit, studentscan go through the process of construction, electronics assembly, and programming. The VEXrobot has been used to implement waypoint navigation, map building, and path planning [1]. However, VEX robots primarily focus on motion control and low-level sensing, and they donot have a vision sensor (such as a CCD camera).

They verify results, evaluate, and adjustthe solutions they work on accordingly, until they reach an optimal solution for their identifiedproblems.10 This is an important process for practicing engineers, however, rarely are first yearengineering students exposed to and able to practice this process.
