to guide them through the solution. Priorexperience with computer-assisted tools has shown that this practice engages them in thelearning process, generates interest in underlying theory, and allows students to identifyareas of deficiency in their learning. The difference is in engaging them in thinking byexposing them to applications, problem solving, and solution verification beyond thetraditional methods of teaching. Education researchers have been studying theeffectiveness of various learning philosophy [7], e.g. active versus reflective, sensateversus intuitive, visual versus verbal, global versus sequential in different environments.Our method of combined use of application, problem solving and assessment will engagestudents in a mixed

How To Increase Student Involvement and Understanding In An Introductory Thermo-Fluids CourseAbstractLearning thermodynamics for many engineering students is daunting. When introductorythermodynamics is combined with fluid mechanics, this task becomes more difficult. AtMichigan Technological University (Michigan Tech), Civil Engineering, Geological Engineeringand Biomedical Engineering students take an introductory Thermodynamics/Fluid Mechanicscourse, ENG 3200. These students have varied backgrounds and interests which increases thechallenges of teaching. The typical enrollment is 80 students per section. To address thesechallenges, the instructors

Perhaps a more pragmaticreason for recognizing the importance of these students is that these individuals are expected toperform at minimally-acceptable levels expected of graduates in professional programs such asengineering and technology. Institutions have an obligation to produce graduates capable of notonly contributing to, but also coping in, professional environments in which they are expected towork after graduation.Most engineering and technology educators, like their colleagues in other disciplines, enter theteaching profession with an aim of advancing knowledge through teaching, research, and service.Faculty typically engage in the teaching-learning
