Session 10-1 Cooperative Learning: An Integral Part of Mechanical Engineering Technology Curriculum James Mayrose, David J. Kukulka State University of New York College at Buffalo AbstractStudents are confronted with an enormous amount of engineering content during their course ofstudy. Due to the tremendous amount of pressure placed upon performance in the way of grades,students often look for ways to “cut corners” or do “just enough” to get a decent grade. Studentswill only learn to master engineering concepts

Due to challenges with implementing ethics as a stand alonecourse, recent efforts have focused on integrating ethical reasoning in existing courses asstudents are learning technical concepts, to instill that ethical reasoning is needed while writingcode and developing technology, instead of being an isolated activity [1], [3].In developing a model for embedding ethics in the computer science curriculum at HarvardUniversity, Grosz et al.

However, thistechnology is not widely used in education due to the high cost of the hardware and the hightechnical expertise required for data processing. The continuous evolution of this technologyover the years made it more affordable for use in the classroom. Laser scanning providesexcellent opportunities to enhance the construction engineering management curriculum. Thispaper presents an extensive literature review on laser scanning technology applications andevaluates the feasibility of integrating it in the construction engineering managementcurriculum.

Though many Universities offer a master’s degree in Cybersecurity, it isimpractical to fill this huge demand for Cybersecurity through only graduate degree holders.After careful analysis, it has become evident that there is a gap in the curriculum as it relates totraining for Cybersecurity concepts in foundational computing courses for students. To be morespecific, there is relatively less focus on the infusion of Cybersecurity concepts in undergraduatecomputing courses and its impact on classroom practices. This paper serves to address this gapby providing an experience in infusing, teaching, and assessing Cybersecurity modules in variousundergraduate computing courses that immerse students in

Object classification consists of theappropriate neural network architecture for training and learning object characteristics from datasets. Collision avoidance utilizes a single camera to estimate the distance of the vehicle from theobject. The hardware and software requirements of the integrated project platform are met bycost-effective resources. In addition to serving as a testbed

The report emphasized that contextual skills should be deliveredthrough multi- and interdisciplinary coursework, integrated into the existing curriculum, andfocused on an understanding of the ethical dimensions of engineering. A decade later, theNational Academies report Educating the Engineer of 2020 re-emphasized the importance of thethemes of interdisciplinarity, societal context, and ethics to the engineer of the then-future [3].In 2018, Dr. Ruth Graham, in her report on The Global

Twenty seven freshmen from a wide diversity of disciplines voluntarily signed upfor the proposed course. The course meets one semester hour for four semesters. Students whoattend the entire course, four semesters, are able to substitute this course for one in their major(agreed upon by the respective curriculum committees prior to the course offering). The firstsemester is an introduction to energy concepts such as work, power and conservation of energy.

To add to this gap in literature, this paper analyzes quantitative responses of genderand sexual minority students’ perceptions of the engineering curricula from the survey conductedin 2018.Relevant LiteratureThe predominant normative marker of science and scientists in the U.S. has historically andcontinues to be based on White cisgender male perspectives [1]–[7]. Not surprisingly, thishomogenous and heterogenous perspective leads to pedagogical practices in which minoritizedstudents underperform compared to when innovative pedagogical models are used, such asflipped classrooms [8], [9]. This long-standing conceptualization of science and scientists alsoresults in an engineering curriculum that deems “issues of communication, justice

At thesame time, ABET adopted new criteria for evaluating and accrediting engineering programs [3].The criteria focused on developing “soft skills” including teamwork, ethics, and effectivecommunication, among others. The importance of soft skills has only grown in the interveningyears.

Through drawing a systems map, students analyze how their project and its intended goal connect to the world around them.2. Pairwise Comparison Chart Activity. Students assume the role of various stakeholders (those invested in the project in some way) to complete a pairwise comparison chart, thus simulating how different stakeholders make trade-offs when determining important design criteria.3.
