questions.Qualitative Data & ResultsPhase 1: Open-ended QuestionnairesPhase 1 of the qualitative data collection consisted of open-ended questionnaires that weredistributed at seven regional EWB-USA conferences in the fall of 2011. Participants were askedto answer the following questions in a corresponding colored box on a piece of paper shown inFigure 2: Q.1. How do you describe yourself? Q.2. How do you describe an engineer? Q.3. How do you describe an EWB-USA member? Q.4. What do you think an engineer needs to know? Q.5. What, if any, are the gaps in your engineering education? Q.6. What are your biggest gains from your experience with EWB-USA?Of the 505 respondents who answered these questions and

hydrogels for oral drug delivery. For this experiment, studentsprepare pH-responsive hydrogels based on p(MMA-EG) and characterize the network structureof the swollen hydrogel through mesh size modeling in different pH environments. Students canoptimize the hydrogel for oral drug delivery by varying its structure. They identify importantdesign variables, practice translating quantitative laboratory measurements into data used indesign evaluation, and learn aspects of polymer characterization, which can be applied to otherareas of material science and engineering.Mesh size is determined from correlations using existing tensile and experimental density data tocharacterize how the gels respond to pH variations.The swelling ratio, Q is found from

investigation to explore this disconnect in the context of undergraduate engineering education. The primary tasks of the research are: (i) To assess the Faculty knowledge of SDT; (ii) To develop a measurement framework for assessing the classroom environment as it relates to SDT; and (iii) To determine the association among Faculty knowledge of SDT, student motivation, learning environment, and student learning.6. A longitudinal, quasi-experimental design is employed where both instructors and students in the various Engineering Departments at Florida Atlantic University (FAU) are the participants. The research design and measurement framework (e.g. Learning Climate Questionnaire or LCQ; Riverside Situational Q-sort
