However, these samestudents are unsure how to apply these fundamental principles and closed-form equations thefirst time they are given the task of doing an engineering design of a system where theparameters are such that multiple solutions are possible. To give students a first exposure to areal-world product-development team-environment scenario, the design and analysis of linkagesis used as the central topic to integrate engineering analysis, design, CAD, project managementand technical writing into a semester-long design project. The students work in teams of fourand take a loosely defined

A demographic instrument was employed to gatherdata that assisted in classifying students as being at-risk of leaving college or not at-risk. Theresearchers used the Fisher exact test to analyze the collected data. The Fisher exact test is mostcommonly applied to evaluation of a hypothesis with data framed in a 2x2 contingency tablewhere chi-square assumptions are not individually met.1 The null hypotheses are evaluatedbased on the probability of determining a collection of “observed frequencies even moreextreme” than the set summarized in the contingency

to a studentcentric model, where students become part of the means of their own instruction. Active learningprovides a number of different strategies to accomplish this and these techniques have beenresearched and have been shown to be effective means of instruction2.Literature on active learning generally includes the following characteristics: • Students are involved in more than listening. • Less emphasis is placed on transmitting information and more on developing students’ skills. • Students are involved in higher-order thinking (analysis, synthesis, evaluation). • Students are engaged in activities (e.g. reading, discussing, writing). • Greater emphasis is placed on students’ exploration of their own attitudes and values3

that requires the creation of a revolved feature and a pattern, and having students write and sketch the modeling strategy they would choose to create the part. The strategies are collected, some of them are chosen for discussion, followed by a short Creo demo that walks step by step through creating the model of the sample figure. The model is already finished, but the features are shown and discussed one at a time as shown in Figure 2, steps A thru D, with each feature’s modeling strategy being the focus of the discussion, not how specifically to draw the profiles, locate the holes, and so on. All example problems are from the Bertoline [4] text. Figure 1 – Lecture

representative of the target phenomenon29. Eventhough social and cultural aspects of an investigation could play a part in understanding thephenomenon, the interest here is in students’ modeling as it relates to the cognitive core of thephenomenon30. The creation of models provide insight into the fundamental nature of thephenomenon and are powerful descriptive, predictive and explanatory tools, often underutilizedin science and problem-solving investigation31,32, 33,34,35. When models are conceptualized andcommunicated as part of mental schemas—knowledge, images and procedures in memory36—they can be leveraged as part of an iterative, transformative process necessary to refine studentmeaning-making. The process of imagining, expressing and negotiating

Student commentsduring the review sessions included: “It’s hard to figure out what someone else was thinking on their drawing when its dimensions are different than mine.” “Why is it easier to find someone else’s mistakes than it is to find mine before I turn it in?” “I
