quantity. Literature is sparse on assessing Outcome 6 directly in both architectural and more holistically civilengineering [19] where as many papers and best practices for Industrial, Electrical, Mechanical andBiomedical Engineering experiments have been regularly documented [20-21]. The organizing principle ofmany traditional engineering laboratory courses are their pre-planned experiences wherein studentsduplicate technique(s) to learn it [6-7]. Such approaches lack the element of solving authentic engineeringproblems [19]. Knowing the formal definition from ABET on Outcome 6, the AE program at The PennsylvaniaState University breaks down Outcome 6 into two sections: 1) 6.1.

in managing and leading others [7], and companies signal to universities to producegraduates with leadership skills [8]. Responding to this demand, ABET [6] is requiring thatundergraduate engineering programs demonstrate attainment of student outcomes that includeleadership in a team setting. It remains to be seen how universities will demonstrate leadershipcompetencies in student outcomes [9] and how well these educational experiences will translateinto valued workplace behaviors. Despite a purported high level of interest, leadershipdevelopment in industry is often hit or miss, and on-the-job-training in leadership is the norm[10]. Indeed, none of the engineering graduates surveyed by Watson [11] mentioned anyworkplace training in the area

Thisarticle then describes how, after an exhaustive survey of the literature, a grant from theUniversity’s Major Pedagogical Innovations Program is being used to devise ways in which thedevelopment of the interpersonal and intrapersonal competencies of engineering students will beintimately integrated throughout the whole undergraduate programs with that of the scientificand

Thelarge number of submitted papers is a clear indication of enthusiastic cooperation and responsefrom the community. Out of the 90+ submissions, 57 full papers and 21 posters were acceptedbased on the reviewers’ comments and recommendations. Each submission was reviewed carefullytwice (abstract first followed by full paper) by two to four reviewers. These reviewers not onlyreviewed papers, but also provided their help and support to many authors in order to prepare theirfinal manuscripts. The program committee made their best efforts to accommodate all submissionswith academic merit and scholarship.Many recognized speakers

facilitate participation of a larger, more diverse student base.• Disseminate research products and findings to the broader engineering education community.II. MotivationA. The Lecture/Laboratory DisconnectIn curricula that teach EE concepts, hands-on laboratories that accompany circuit theory, signals& systems, and digital design courses are often scheduled separately, partly because textbooksoften adopt a written-work and software paradigm. Additionally, organizing students and topicsin laboratory-only environments is more efficient than interspersing hands-on assignments withlectures, so unless lecture and laboratory courses are paired, laboratories can be separated in timefrom their corresponding lecture material, making it difficult for

As indicated above, the visual arts were represented in this interdisciplinary studioby students from the major of Art Education, rather than students from a purely studio artbackground.

rudimentary computer-aided designwork followed by an enabling description of the design in the patent application is all that isnecessary. However, this form of legitimate peripheral participation – as students areauthentically engaging in the patenting act in proximity to an experienced patent professional[10] – is a critical pedagogical strategy to help realize the broader goal of the development of aholistic awareness of IP concepts.One important aspect of patent drafting is claim drafting. Patent applications are divided into thewritten description (typically identified as specification), drawing (if needed), and claims. Claimsare provided in the forms of independent as well as dependent claims in a funnel approach withthe independent claims

? To understand the best practices (and challenges) of designers (both engineers and non- engineers) for incorporating stakeholder considerations into the design of an aircraft, I conducted a case study in industry using human factors and interdisciplinary collaboration theories to describe the findings. I also examined engineering design literature and compared their perspectives on systems thinking and the integration of stakeholder considerations with the results of an exploration of current aerospace design textbooks and syllabi. Finally, I developed a survey using engineering design education research to learn from the participants in my study about their prior knowledge of and preconceptions

and safety concerns of using Class 4 lasers prevent this technology being used in the undergraduate and graduate laboratory teaching. Recently, however, a relatively inexpensive, and safe for classroom use ‘educational Particle Image Velocimetry’ (ePIV) system with web based interactive software was developed. This novel technology is an instrument that can be used in diverse educational settings because of its effectiveness as an education tool, high-tech appeal, compact size, low cost and safety. In this paper we introduce ePIV, describe its components in detail and provide examples of how it can be used to enhance undergraduate and graduate laboratory experience.1.
