Therefore, it wasstipulated that the program length for the baccalaureate degree be 128 semester hours, and anyprogram requiring more than 128 must be properly justified. Baccalaureate degree programs at[University A], in general, are 128 semester credit hours or less, which
CurriculumAbstractAs the United States tries to remain technologically competitive with other nations the demandfor engineering professionals is expected to increase. Since the early 1990‘s, many K-12engineering outreach programs have been incorporated into middle schools either through hightech electives or in tandem with the State prescribed math and science curriculum with the intentof fostering student interest in science and engineering. In spite of both approaches the ratio ofscience and engineering degrees awarded annually to the college aged population in the U.S. isless than in other countries. Furthermore, the number of underrepresented minorities earningthose degrees is 12% according to the National Action Council for Minorities in Engineering

Authors often cite PAR as being rooted in the workof Paulo Freire, who advocated re-thinking traditional, top-down education in favor oftransformative, empowered “co-learning”4, 7, 13 .This paper begins with proposition that engineering programs seeking to engage in humanitarianand sustainable development will require interdisciplinary skills. In that sense it tests the theorythat there is value in preparing engineers to engage in teamwork with partners trained in differentskills and that view projects through diverse lenses and methodological frameworks.

gapbetween research and practice: The research is not sufficiently persuasive or authoritative; Theresearch is not relevant to practice and does not address the issues and concerns of teachers; Ideasfrom research have not been accessible to teachers and are either difficult to find or understand; Theeducation system itself is either too intractable or too unstable, and therefore unable to engage insystematic change. Further, she notes that the gap between educational research and educationalpractice has been an ongoing phenomena and complaint of educational researchers since at least 1934.Careful experimental design was a focus of educational research in the 1960’s, but such research did notresult in broad and rapid adoption of researched

In addition, in versions of the oral exams that wereintended to give the students extra credit, students found that having a second chance to provetheir knowledge increased their motivation to learn. This highlighted to them that the class wasabout increasing their knowledge rather than penalizing them for their mistakes. D. Did oral exams increase students' understanding of the subject matter?In the end-of-quarter survey, students were asked whether they believe the oral exams increasedtheir understanding of the subject matter. Overall, the majority of students found the oralassessment(s) increased their understanding of the subject matter. 72.1% of the valid responsesanswered “agree/strongly agree” to the prompt, while nearly 21.4
authentic engineering experience to use asthe focus of their essay.II. BackgroundStatics is considered by many to be a foundational class, full of threshold concepts that aredifficult for students to grasp (perhaps partly because students often have to unlearn their oldconcepts). It has been stated that “Statics is a “threshold concept” in engineering in that masteryof this area can serve as a “conceptual gateway” that opens up “previously inaccessible way(s) ofthinking about something”1. Some educators, such as Steif and Dollar, are concerned that evenamong those who successfully pass the class there are those with poor conceptualunderstanding2.

towards its lack of intellectual inquiry and critique. He viewed the relationshipbetween professional bodies and academic professionals as being inherently in conflict with theindependent pursuit of knowledge within the ideal university. According to this argument,accreditation is prejudiced because the people who are doing the accrediting likely owe a greaterallegiance to the profession than to the university: an inherent conflict of interest.Consider John Henry Newman´s core ideas regarding the value of liberal education put forwardin his 19th century book The Idea of a University [12]. Newman argued that the university is ahybrid educational environment which serves to educate students for life by means of“collegiality”, “enlargement of mind

These conclusions drawn and strategies presented allowstudents to develop fundamental engineering skills early on in their education with the intent ofcarrying them throughout their studies. Furthermore, if students can experience a more rewarding andsuccessful time in Engineering Design I and II courses while gaining valuable experience, they willbe more confident in their abilities and choices not only in the classroom but in their careers as well.
