the network infrastructure such as server and networkswitch, web camera, workstation, data acquisition and lab devices. The software componentprovides web interface for user to conduct the virtual and remote experiments, experimentmanagement, and experiment data management etc. Development tools are software packageswhich are used to develop the software component for the VR-Lab framework. To achieve thecross browser compatibility and zero plug-in installation, the Web 2.0 technologies are used. ADigital Signal Processing (DSP) remote laboratory has been implemented in the framework. Auser friendly web interface has design to conduct the remote DSP experiments in any webbrowser without any plug-in installation.IntroductionOnline education has

It has been usedby the U.S. Navy Seals and other highly competitive organizations.[9] Duckworth received theMcArthur Foundation “Genius” Award in 2013 for Transforming our understanding of the rolesthat grit and self-control play in educational achievement. The Fisk-Vanderbilt Ph.D. Bridgeprogram has shown the Grit index to be 90% accurate in determining

Pfizer has built a simulation of its drug-development process that is used to trainnew recruits. PricewaterhouseCoopers has created an elaborate simulation to teach noviceauditors about financial derivatives. And of course, pilots have been trained using flightsimulators for years, and simulators are now used by soldiers and surgeons too.”10Similarly, faculty members face the option of changing their entire course structure to fit thestudent or changing the student.

Relative tostudents taught in traditional classes, SCALE-UP students are better problem solvers,achieve nearly four times the gain on certain conceptual tests, have better attitudes towardscience, and report greater satisfaction with their instruction. Retention rates for femalesare twice those in regular classes.

In my perspective, we are offering a different stance that involves a shift in normativethinking of engineering ethics. But we need a little more context to describe what that normtends to be. I think a brief return to Layton [4] can be helpful here, as well as how that connectswith contemporary codes, as well as how that connects with two more prominent moral theoriesutilized in engineering education (i.e., deontology and utilitarianism).Layton documented myriad incongruities across engineering societies amidst their emergenceand, often, within engineering societies.

Education, 2006 Engineering Management in a Competitive Global EnvironmentAbstractThe world around us is changing. The beginning of the twenty-first century is a period of rapidtransition in which the pace of this transformation continues to accelerate. New organizations,technologies, and products are materializing at an escalating rate. Those organizations unable tokeep up and successfully compete will quickly fade away. The shifting dynamics of trade andbusiness continually reflects the increasingly competitive nature of the global marketplace.Organizations along with their managers must adopt and adapt new methods in order to survivewith these sweeping transitions. Together these changes have created an entirely new paradigmfor global

American c Society for Engineering Education, 2021 Cheating and Chegg: a RetrospectiveAbstractIn the spring of 2020, universities across America, and the world, abruptly transitioned to onlinelearning.

Most importantly, the student is providedthe time necessary to digest the material before class, unlike a conventional classroom.Some authors have reported their early efforts to flip engineering classrooms [16], [17], [18], butthis instructional model gained popularity in more recent years, and methods have beendescribed in the literature [15], [19], [20], [21]. However, many of these methods vary betweenstudies. It is important to standardize methods and establish fundamentals for successfulimplementation. Generally, flipped classroom models make effective use of time, technology,and accommodate various learning styles [16], [22], [23]. They also help students become self-directed learners [11], [22], foster

The understanding that is needed is in part technological, in part economic, and inpart an understanding of the human condition. Engineers must play a pivotal role in thesolution of these problems – just as they did in their creation. However, for engineers toplay this role, a major paradigm shift is needed. In the words of Albert Einstein, “Theworld we have created has problems that cannot be solved thinking the way we used tothink when we created them”. Unfortunately, notwithstanding new ABET criteria,engineering programs rarely, if ever

Theybelieve that our young men and women, 18-24, across the United States can contribute tofinding scientific and technological solutions to societal challenges. They suggest that “Wecan enlist them to combat diseases and addictions, to find alternative energy solutions, tocreate new materials for new industries, or to address the scientific and technologicalchallenges of, for example, urbanization, healthcare, security, privacy, resource scarcity,and climate change” [2]. They believe that these students will rise to, and even exceed,our expectations if we imagine research differently: early, often, and universal. And theyhope that

, collaborative communication led to an increased sense ofrelatedness among different disciplines, which may be useful for effective public researchcommunication about interdisciplinary engineering projects.IntroductionThere is a general understanding that engineering solves problems, but it is often hard tounderstand the direct context or implications of what engineers do without substantialscaffolding. Meanwhile, STEM is a familiar term within contemporary American educationalsystems, but it does not reflect a monolithic domain unto itself, and it is not always clear howengineering relates to science, technology, or math within this framing. While engineering aloneis a rich area of exploration, contextualizing it with other disciplines can highlight

Today’s learners recognize that going to school is notabout earning a certificate but learning valuable and marketable knowledge and skills that canbe utilized in their future professions. The high school diploma is far from a final destination; itis only a tool. The practice, training and professional development they gain during their schoolyears must count as significant for the world of work. Teachers have to keep in mind that theirstudents are affected by technology gadgets, the information and media revolution, as well as byeconomic and social changes.
