implemented a new general education program for all incomingfreshmen in fall 2012. This new general education program was designed with input from thecollege of engineering and had requirements for courses to be taught by engineering faculty forthe broader campus community. For the past 25 years, the college of engineering had minimalparticipation in the previous general education program at the University. One uniquerequirement in this new general education program is the I-Series courses, a novel set of requiredcourses designed to address important intellectual issues. The development of the I-Seriescourses, enrollment growth and initial learning assessment will be reviewed.IntroductionA full redesign of the General Education (GenEd) program at the

The researcher translated the English version of ECT into Chinese andthen it was back-translated by a bilingual professional translator. In the present study, the α valueof ECT were higher than 0.78, implying that a good internal consistency existed. Besides, anexpert panel of two science educators and two doctoral students in science education were askedto evaluate the validity of ECT. In

AsWenger writes (p. 59), “… I want to preserve the connotations of excessive concreteness and projected reality that are suggested by the dictionary definition. Indeed, no abstraction, tool, or symbol actually captures in its form the practices in the context of which it contributes to an experience of meaning.”Given the noted lack of attention to variability in engineering research [10] and education [11],we expected the student participant-researchers in this study to struggle to identify the presenceand relevance of variability in their engineering coursework.
