There are also further opportunities for Physics and ElectricalEngineering to develop systems to support Physics research and teaching, as well as developexperiments for Electrical Engineering labs in Signals and Systems, Controls and Digital SignalProcessing.I. Literature Review Capstone projects tend to fall into two distinct categories: single discipline faculty advisingstudents from a single discipline (single/single) and faculty from multiple disciplines advisingstudents from multiple disciplines (multi/multi).

One primary goal for ASEE is to get engineering educators to adopteffective pedagogies in their classrooms. However, this is not happening at the rate or scale thatthe community is hoping. Furthermore, even in cases where it is happening, there is often limitedevidence of correct implementation (e.g. techniques are implemented as intended or have thedesired impact in the classroom).Our hypothesis is that, even for faculty who are interested in adopting innovative teachingmethods, research findings and techniques that are not within their

for faculty collaboration designed tobroaden the use of innovative practices in engineering classrooms. A recentrecommendation from the Innovation with Impact report called for increasing facultyawareness about effective teaching innovations as well increasing engagement inengineering courses (Jamieson & Lohmann, 2012). The focus of this research study is onhow small, long-term faculty groups can be used as a model to encourage suchinnovations and improvements in teaching. In addition to developing a faculty teachingdevelopment process, the project also involves the creation of sharable resources forinnovative teaching. While there are many general resources for teaching, we seek tocreate resources specifically for electrical and computer

In some research universities, however,teaching is not appreciated to the same extent as research. Yet if a university does nothave instructors willing and able to do put time and energy to teach effectively, retentionbecomes an issue1, as does reputation and consequently recruitment in subsequent years.Teaching freshman and sophomore engineering students is even more crucial because itis during this initial period that students are more likely to change majors or drop out ofcollege2, 3.
