In a three-year project, weincluded two phases of teaching development groups. The teaching development model focusedon increasing knowledge about research-based practices, particularly those focused on studentengagement, combined with instructors’ design and testing of interactive teaching strategies intheir own classrooms.

Introduction and BackgroundIf present trends hold, the world may well be on the verge of the “Solar Age”, wherephotovoltaics will make a substantial (> 20%) contribution to our total electrical energy needs.Photovoltaic materials, devices, and systems should therefore be prominent in engineeringeducation. In addition, solar cells are very informative specimens for teaching image capture,processing, and analysis as means for studying materials science, semiconductor devices, optics,thin-film technology, manufacturing automation, machine vision, quality assurance, andstatistical process control. For example, imaging a solar cell with visible and infrared camerascan reveal its grain structure (grain size and texture), crystallographic defects, surface
