As such,in addition to physical labs, our program requires all undergraduate students to take a two-semester sequence in computational materials science called “modeling and simulation” (orModSim) focusing on practical programming skills and use of commercial CALPHAD and FEAsoftware. These courses are taught in the spring semesters of the sophomore and junior years andformatted as hands-on computational laboratory courses

Prior to each class period, the students were accountable forstudying the module and completing the quiz over the module. They could study the module bywatching pre-recorded lectures, reading the sections in the book identified in the module slides,reviewing the slides, researching the learning objective on the internet, or all of these.In-class activities: During class, the students worked on in-class problems that were turned in atthe end of the class.

Two types ofdata have shaped the lessons learned: formal focus groups conducted with each class of seniordesign students, and informal feedback from well-meaning alumni.

One of the biggestof these is the retention of students. From our experience in the College of Engineering andApplied Science (CEAS) at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM), the courses that aremost challenging from a mathematics perspective are the courses in which students have themost difficulty.
