jobs become computer based, workers willspend greater amounts of time on a computer. It is important that the Industrial Engineeringcurriculum stays current on such demographic changes and update individual coursesaccordingly. This paper demonstrates how relatively simple and low cost studies can beintroduced into a traditional ergonomics class and benefit the students.References1. Bureau of Labor Statistics (2005).

This transcript reviewfocused on specific questions asked during the interview, primarily students’ personal interest(s), 2career aspiration(s), experience with engineering, and understanding of engineering. Analysiswas performed by capturing consistencies in the data relevant to the framework of this paper, andthen student characteristics were considered for any plausible explanations.Findings/Discussion The first theme that became apparent following the analysis of the data is the narrowcomprehension of engineers and engineering conveyed by

students’ creativity ingenerating ideas within the context of design problems, an assessment more directlyfocused on the idea generation phase of the design process would be more suitable forour research. We plan to use a set of idea generation problems which have been usedsuccessfully in the past to measure outcomes related to creativity in idea generation.In future work, student ideation artifacts and projects will also be examined through thelens of the MPCA(18). Even though the metric requires raters and does not exhibit highreliability, the fact that the metric is broken down by function may allow us to better tracethe source(s) of a high or low creativity score than could be determined from a single,simple rating.A variety of research tools

their thinking. As students review each other‟s screencasts, their own thinking and metacognition will be re-evaluated from another learner‟s perspective who is not necessarily a teacher or a textbookauthor. Learning from peers is more authentic and more sustainable than learning from atextbook or from a teacher17. In addition, receiving peers‟ comments on their own screencastadds to these metacognitive items that will eventually help improve their CAD knowledge andskills. In this National Science Foundation (NSF) project, two mechanical engineering faculty andtwo learning scientists have collaborated to implement a student-centered instructional strategy,namely peer-generated screencast strategy in teaching CAD in the undergraduate

BackgroundIn the late 1980’s and early 1990’s industry leaders started to recognize that with globalizationand advances in computer technology, the world was getting more interconnected, complex andquicker. To compete in a rapidly changing world they needed a new breed of engineeringstudents, who could literally hit the ground running upon graduation. In addition to excellenttechnical knowledge and skills they also needed graduating engineering students with abilities toproductively work on

abroad experience. Given the 24 required credit hours,if a student comes in as a freshman, s/he can finish 3 Honors credit hours per semester (requiredto maintain Honors College good standing) and graduate in 4 years (or 8 semesters) with anHonors diploma. However, if a student transfers in at practically the sophomore level, s/he has todouble up on his/her Honors course or Honors contract in two semesters, which can bechallenging and time-consuming. Practically, it is not recommended for juniors or seniors toconsider Honors College, if they are not already in the Honors College.Although the 24 Honors credit hours can be earned through either Honors courses or Honorscontracts, the engineering and technology students have little to no capacity

From the result that S+ Lp = 138 cm, and choosing Lp =100 cm > 94 cm, one canobtain S = 38 cm.

Lastly, upon examination of the cognitive processes K-12 students’ employ duringdesigning, few coding schemes actually are informed by educational philosophies, learningtheory, and STEM educational reform. Nor, do they indicate how students can be better equippedto learn and develop their cognition while designing. As researchers and educators moveforward, examining decision making strategies as well as normative models may provideadditional relevance to Design Cognition in terms of how students are performing in relation toeducational philosophies, learning theory, and STEM Educational reform.
