encouraged to make up their own mind on this question, the issue of homework doesallow instructors to challenge engineering students to think and behave ethically, as we hopethey will in their careers.Based on the lack of evidence showing that graded homework improves performance oversuggested problems and the ethical implications accompanying the increased likelihood ofacademic misconduct on graded homework, the authors agree with the sentiments of Trussell andDietz7. Specifically, instructor resources dedicated to implementing graded homework as part ofan undergraduate engineering course design might be redirected without a negative impact onstudent performance. The nebulous nature of homework will require additional research to betterdefine the

with the sheer amount of information, assumptions and details that “real-world” engineers do day in and day out. It is hard to appreciate the thought that goes into such a large-scale project until one is handed to you. What is even more mind-boggling is that our analysis was purely from an engineering standpoint; economic, geographic and many other considerations were not taken into account.These types of broad lessons about using concepts from dynamics in engineering practice are noteasily grasped via normal textbook problem solving, but become apparent via this project-basedapproach.

.32When selecting a case, the instructor should keep these characteristics in mind :1. The case should be appropriate for the students; it should match the students’ skill level or knowledge of the course topic. For example, mechanical engineering seniors may be more experienced with certain discipline-specific subject matter than first-year students and could handle a case requiring more advanced knowledge. Furthermore, each student should be able to relate to the issue so that no one person or small group is disenfranchised.36, 372. A case should be complex enough to engage students in problem solving. Even if the case is simple, it should be complex enough to generate group discussion and alternative solutions to the problem posed

Students who are learning about one small portion of the design process—in astructural steel design course, for example—need to be reminded that decisions made during thedesign phase often have significant but invisible consequences over the lifetime of the facility.A fifth and final topic related to PtD is comparisons of public policy around the globe.

Thus, students solve the problem,connect it to their personal experiences, integrate it with their chemical engineeringunderstanding from other courses, and finally propose a related

ismuch too much detail present and so much that is not understood. The very crux of engineeringanalysis and the hallmark of every successful engineer is the ability to make shrewd and viableapproximations which greatly simplify the system and still lead to a rapid, reasonably accurateprediction of its behavior.Figure 3. Illustration of philosophy behind the freshman level programming course driven by model-baseddesign.One such model studied in the course is projectile motion. Most freshman engineering studentsare familiar with projectile motion from high school or freshman level introductory physicscourses. This familiarity is important as the student’s mind should not be overwhelmed withcomplex physical systems while trying to grasp the problem

Similar toawareness, cognitive, situational and institutional factors may influence all of these activities.Intent and Action are generally not represented in more traditional rubrics for engineering ethics,but at the same time, play an important role in determining a course of ethical behavior. Intentrefers to the degree to which an individual is committed to a moral course of action and dependon an individual’s personal moral intuition, identify and affect. Action involves the ability totranslate awareness, judgement and intent into action.

progresses. This places those studentsat a disadvantage relative to their peers, as they have difficulty understanding and masteringadvanced topics. The knowledge gap also often results in the repetition of topics and prolongedlab sessions, as well as more serious issues such as the mishandling of equipment.STEM instruction typically is based on verbal, deductive, reflective, and sequential learningmethods. However, studies show that students in science and engineering programs tend to dowell with visual, inductive, active, and global learning methods. With this information in mind,we developed custom pre-lab videos to address the knowledge gap. The pre-lab videosdemonstrate basic usage and implementation of laboratory equipment, software tools
