Informal feedback fromindustry indicates students know what they need to know to be successful. The adaptation of theUbD pedagogy was crucial to the development of the program and we believe it could be usedsuccessfully by others.IntroductionAn interdisciplinary group of university faculty worked together in a Faculty LearningCommunity to study a pedagogy called Understanding by Design (UbD).

This methodologicalapproach to understand diversity in engineering education is not a panacea for all methodologicalissues. Rather, this approach provides a new way of examining multiple affective and cognitivedimensions at once to understand how an individual experiences engineering.How TDA Has Been Used in Prior LiteratureTDA is an advanced statistical clustering technique that examines the topology, or the landscape,of the data to find common, dense areas in the dataset.

to Integrate the Industrial Engineering CurriculumAbstractThis work introduces a new approach called Connected Learning and Integrated CourseKnowledge (CLICK). CLICK is intended to provide an integrative learning experience byleveraging Virtual Reality (VR) technology to help provide a theme to connect and transfer theknowledge of engendering concepts. Integrative learning is described as the process of creatingconnections between concepts (i.e., skill and knowledge) from different resources andexperiences, linking theory and practice, and using a variation of platforms to help students’understanding. In the CLICK approach, the integration is achieved by VR learning modules thatserve as a platform for a common theme and include

Despite theseunfortunate circumstances, recent studies have demonstrated that when creativity ismethodologically inserted in the engineering curriculum or other skill-based training programs,students are able to apply it immediately and in the long-term.[9] For instance, within thecorporate world, the idea of creativity training has gained recent significant attention due to itsability to enhance worker performance in organizations [32] and impact economic developmentin cities [33, 34].

of Ethics, it is clearthat the Code highly reflects deontological theory; i.e., it consists of a series of doctrines thatengineers must follow, with intrinsic morality tied to each behavior. In other words, the Code ofEthics can be seen as a reflection of an engineer’s duty to society.A difference from this dominate theoretical approach can be seen to emerge in the review of 108articles and conference papers on macroethical education in engineering. Articles were reviewedand sorted based on the three main “families” of ethical theory: utilitarianism, deontology, andvirtue ethics. This review showed that explicit reference to these three families of theoryoccurred in 41 of the 108 articles reviewed – 14 predominately noted utilitarianism
