Pólya’s method becausemost students have poor skills in these areas. Future plans address math literacy further and seekmore effective ways of implementing some techniques.Because students’ knowledge and skills will vary, it is prudent to check prerequisite knowledge,as well as basic problem-solving ability, at the start of the semester, and then address anynecessary issues that arise before they interfere with achieving the course objectives. Technologycan facilitate this process, if used judiciously with educational objectives in mind. However,because technology is evolving rapidly, periodic assessment is prudent. Bibliography[1] S.

However, the curricularchanges that follow these fast-paced technologies are often difficult to implement in theclassroom in a timely manner. Often, new products become available but without appropriatedocumentation for quick implementation in educational laboratories. It may take a year or longerto develop a set of laboratory exercises for a new microcontroller or a 3D printer. Thus, theknowledge must come from other informal sources, like workshops, technical presentations,conferences, etc. Students are taught to embrace change and keep current.

The paper presents general conclusions with strategies to implement a computer simulationtool like MATLAB/Simulink to teach advanced topics. The learning modules solve difficultproblems that would be impossible to solve analytically without advanced graduate levelcoursework and/or an inappropriately large amount of time.Over six-years of adapting and changing the learning modules, student success on – andperception of – the assignments improved. Use of computational tools broadens course contentdelivery by covering topics inaccessible through analytical methods in a first course on

As software has becomeubiquitous, software products have become critical. This poses multitude of problems in thesoftware industry, as there is generally a lack of knowledge of Software Verification andValidation (V&V) benefits and also there is a significant shortage of adequately trained V&Vpractitioners. This paper describes outlines of a research study that focuses on bridging thesesupply and demand and knowledge and training gaps in V&V education.

The myth ofthe digital native has done more harm than good to the Millenial generation: It hasincreased older adults’ expectations about students’ baseline knowledge levels, and hasresulted in failure to educate students about topics that may greatly affect their futures. Itis time to base our curricula on research, rather than myth. The research reviewed so farshows that students need our help when it comes to social media, and social medialiteracy should be included in undergraduate college education.

engineering education in the United States remains largelyunexplored.A distinctive feature of knowledge building is that it is idea-centered, a characteristic essential ina knowledge age pedagogy. By focusing on ideas rather than schoolwork and tasks, knowledgebuilding supports the intentional, reflective, and metacognitive engagement required for deeplearning. In a knowledge-building environment the focus of the learning community is oncontinually improving ideas. It begins with a question of understanding that is developed by theparticipants, such as, Why do we need water to survive? Learners are encouraged to generate andpost their ideas about the topic--typically in an asynchronous, online group workspace such asprovided by Knowledge Forum
