Also, students involved in such projects, while taking courses in their colleges,will work in teams across domains, thus gaining important real-world experience. These collaborationsmay also lead to small business formations and a cottage industry that could impact the local economypositively.Methods 590Over the past two years, we have taught Android related courses to graduate and undergraduateengineering students, and high school students, in a synergistic manner.

The ongoing collaborative project described in this paper attempts todevelop the cross-cultural sensitivity of Indian and USA students through their reflections oncase studies that present ethical dilemmas in real-world situations. Central questions addressed inthis paper include: 1) How does a pedagogical model based on socio-cultural theory andincorporating cross-cultural activities support undergraduate engineering students in socio-cultural and ethical thinking? and 2) How do engineering students develop their professionalidentities through socio-cultural and ethical discourse? Based on socio-cultural learning theory,the present collaborative effort engages hundreds of students in professional

INTRODUCTION To educate a new generation of engineers for the twenty-first century, engineering educatorsface many challenges such as the development of students’ ability in critical thinking, creativity,collaborative work, and communication. Laboratory education can play a pivotal role in attainingthese goals. However, due to the limitation of traditional laboratory teaching, its potential benefitshave never been fully realized. The problem becomes more acute if the laboratory course isequipment-intensive. Since students are usually not familiar

Yet, while faculty andadministrators argue that the new curriculum has immense value for advancing undergraduateeducation, they simultaneously worry that such collaborations will circumspect thetransdisciplinary goals of their curriculum. As one academic stakeholder reflected, the degreeprogram has the potential to transform how the university thinks about individual learning plansfor undergraduates that exist outside of traditional disciplinary frameworks, but it also “shouldn’tbecome a pipeline for business and industry.”Alongside this tension—and partly in response to it—the authors of this paper were hired toconduct an external

Health effects fromexposure to asphalt fumes include headache, skin rash, sensitization, fatigue, reduced appetite,throat and eye irritation, cough, and skin cancer. In the mid-1990s, The National AsphaltPavement Association (NAPA) collaborated with industry partners to address concerns about thehazards of asphalt fumes for paving-site workers.
