department) and the mix of students. How is a department,program, or institution to quantify the multidisciplinarity of a class or student team? The number ofmajors is a simple metric, but it does not capture cognitive distance between majors. Beyond the numberof majors and cognitive distance, a measure should also account for the proportion of students in eachdiscipline. To describe the multidisciplinarity of educational programs, we propose the use of the Rao-Stirling diversity index, which has been used to quantify the multidisciplinarity of research papers,authors, research centers, departments, and institutions. The index requires a measure of distancesbetween categories, in this case students’ majors. In studies on university research

The class includedlively debates over the intricacies and nuances of the law, such as the Festo rule7 (the exceptionto the exception to the exception to the rule of infringement). One of my main goals for thecourse was to teach engineers how to determine whether their invention is patentable andwhether making and selling their invention infringes upon a competitor's patent. Despite thesolid attendance by the students and my detailed explanation, some of my students still confusedthe patentability and infringement tests on the exam. Some of the students applied the

The class analyzed in this paper centers around the assumption thathuman rights-based lectures and case studies can equip engineering students to handle both extantchallenges and the potentially disruptive impact of emerging technologies because human rightsare focused on minimum standards that uphold human dignity.

In this application, a 20-minute video was not considered unreasonably long. The students had definite suggestions forimprovement, such as that the videos needed to be professionally produced and thoroughly testedon the proper equipment before being released to the students. Videos should be kept short andaccompanied by some sort of pre-class learning activities, which also should not take too muchtime. The research also suggested that the videos cover the learning content

when faced withcomplex problems they have to agentively solve, this shows that these students can successfullydo design work to frame and conceptualize large and difficult problems.There are several limitations to this work. The primary limitation lies in the differing number ofcredit hours between the two courses. This is reflected in students in the CCEE course havingmore accurate calculations when analyzing their data collected in the lab, and having moreprofessional presentation slides. However, these results show that even a 1-credit class allows fornuanced design work from first-year engineers. The sample size for this study is also relativelysmall, limiting universalizing due to small-scale statistics.AcknowledgmentsThis material is
