In a similar nationwide survey of 550teachers in grades K through 12, Honey and Henriquez (2003) found that students, andteachers, might be provided with opportunities to move beyond the physical confines ofthe classroom for sharing information with others, without excessive costs or delay. Asexpressed by Dwyer, Ringstaff, and Sandholtz (1991), based on their studies of the AppleClassrooms of Tomorrow (ACOT) project, expectations of what students are capable ofaccomplishing may increase, and more material may be covered in a shorter

In Additive Manufacturing (AM),a model initially generatedusing a three-dimensional Computer Aided Design (3D CAD) system, can be fabricated directlywithout the need for process planning. Although this is not in reality as simple as it first sounds,AM technology certainly significantly simplifies the process of producing complex 3D objectsdirectly from CAD data

theclassroom response system has the added benefit of keeping the class attentive. To automate thisactivity an Apple iOS App, called Pikme, was developed that can be operated on an iPhone or aniPod Touch devices for instructional use. Pikme was designed to allow instructors to randomlyselect a student from the class and be able to quickly assess their response for latter evaluation.The app enables instructors to generate a photo-roster that can be shuffled through by shaking thedevice. This approach was utilized in two different courses on regular basis to gaugeunderstanding and simultaneously improve class participation.

This problem is exacerbated when the course is a prerequisite forupper level courses and coverage of the syllabus is deemed important. Over the last fouryears we have been trying the approach of collaborative learning in small groups in a juniorlevel course in reactor analysis to overcome some of the de ciencies. We have found thatformal classroom lectures are important in such a course but student understanding canbe improved through mandatory collaborative learning sessions in small groups outside thelecture classes.

As a universally applicable problem-solving approach, CTcan help engineering students navigate through complex situations. The practice of CTcompetencies (i.e., abstraction, algorithms, problem decomposition, pattern recognition,troubleshooting/debugging) is advantageous for developing analytical ability [3].

Furthermore,the obstacles impeding wide spread integration into the engineering education seem to occur atlater stages of adoption beyond awareness and implementation such as a sustained effort tocontinue the use of the RBIS or discontinue 1,3. Therefore, it is important to understand how tosustain the implementation of RBIS’s and the research-to-practice gap in the context ofengineering curriculum.Related to the general lack of sustained implementation of RBIS’s in STEM is the research-to-practice gap in engineering education.
