AC 2009-2013: FACTORS AFFECTING CONCEPT RETENTIONPhilip Parker, University of Wisconsin, Platteville Page 14.623.1© American Society for Engineering Education, 2009 Factors Affecting Concept RetentionKeywordsConcept retention, transfer, competencies, fluid mechanicsIntroductionFew would argue with the claim that the quality of the learning experience in prerequisitecoursework has a significant impact on student success in subsequent courses. The premise forthis seems obvious: the more effectively students are taught, the better they will learn, and thebetter they learn, the more they will retain. Surprisingly, the STEM (Science, Technology,Engineering, and

The team’s sponsor would like to offer the ability to useand learn from a basic materials tester to undergraduate students enrolled in materialsscience-related courses and projects in order to produce stress-strain curves and assist in thestudy of materials. As the capabilities of commercially-available testers are generally muchgreater than what would be required for classroom and demonstration use, this team was taskedwith developing and manufacturing a design and prototype for materials testers for use by

However, researchers have agreed thatstudies related to the use of computer simulations for inquiry learning have not demonstratedcompelling evidence of their effectiveness in science and engineering domains (Njoo & de Jong,1993 12 ; Winn, 2002 13 ). Njoo and de Jong (1993) 12 pointed out two difficulties encounteredwhen incorporating simulations into educational contexts. The first is that the exploratorylearning processes may be too difficult for learners, and/or that students may not use their Page 14.231.4exploratory skills even though they possess them.

arethe parameters for the bandpass signal shown in Figure 2(a).2.2 Teaching with Software and HardwareHow might we teach such SDR concepts to our students? Computer-based demonstrations can be effectivewith students for many DSP topics.9 We can take advantage of the fact that the software package M ATLABand its related toolboxes have become a mainstay in most ECE programs. Given our students’ familiaritywith M ATLAB, computer exercises that implement bandpass sampling theory for SDR would seem to be anatural approach. But we have found with many DSP topics that our students are often not impressed witha software-only “canned demo,” and adding a hardware component greatly improves the effectiveness ofthe demo and/or lab exercise.

While the university has a formal policyof limiting course retakes to two attempts, there are occasional exceptions made, and they areincluded in these data.Since our research question involved the investigation of performance in Statics while takinginto account a number of control variables, we selected multiple linear regression as our analysistechnique.
