When considering howto strengthen engineering judgment and critical thinking through assignments intended to reinforceengineering judgment capacities, the gaps identified by Claris and Riley (2012, p.110) imply foursuggestions for improving the ways critical thinking is adopted in engineering pedagogy: 1. Engineering education should provide opportunities for students to “analyze the co-construction of
. This resulted in several publications in this educational research areas. Dr. Al-Hammoud won the ”Ameet and Meena Chakma award for exceptional teaching by a student” in 2014 from University of Waterloo. Her students regard her as an innovative teacher who introduced new ideas to the classroom. Such ideas include using ”props” to increase students’ understanding of the materials, as well as using new technology such as i-clickers and IF-AT cards. Dr. Al-Hammoud also organized a bridge-building contest in one of her courses where she worked with other professors in the department to integrate the project horizontally across the curriculum. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2016

Notre Dame has had success in conducting foreign study programs for its other Colleges inEngland, Ireland, France, Austria, Italy, Mexico, Chili, Japan, China, and the Middle East. In the 1999 -2000academic year, the most recent year for which statistics are available, 37 percent of Notre Dame studentsparticipated in study programs in other countries. This was the second -highest percentage among Americanresearch universities, according to a recent Institute of International Education report. Typical of United States universities, Notre Dame does not require a foreign language of its engineeringstudents, thereby

It appears thatfoundation students view engineering in a more positive light than do graduate students. Thefinal point of note relates to students’ perceptions of being a ‘capable engineer’ and raisesquestions about graduate students’ prior qualifications and educational experiences. Thataround a quarter of graduate students did not agree with the statement that “A degree inengineering will provide evidence that I am a capable engineer” raises some importantquestions about the quality of their a priori education and experiences.

Reflections on an Unorthodox International Exchange Yolanda Guran Oregon Institute of TechnologyAbstractIn the new reality of a global world economy, it is more and more important to expose the engineering studentsto international experiences. For small teaching institutions without a research program it is a challenge to runexchange programs. With budget reductions encountered by state institutions in USA and Europe as well, tomaintain such a program

Suchorganizations include business, industry, government, etc. (hereafter just called “industry”).ISEUC is based on international best SE education practices, accreditation standards, credit andnon-credit programs.

I often began with my electronic sketch pad to design jewelry, blankets, or clothing from found materials for family and friends as a form of relaxation after work. It wasn’t until my son became old enough to start playing with LEGOs that I realized that my personal Making activities and the engineering design process I used to develop new medical devices as a biomedical engineer overlapped. This is when I began exploring how to introduce students
