Our research paper examines the role of climate (e.g., interactions with others) in the skilldevelopment of engineering and physical science doctoral students. Skill development ingraduate school often occurs related to students’ primary funding mechanism, in which theymight interact with a research group or teaching team. Advisors also play a pivotal role in theengineering doctoral student experience; however, less is known about how positive mentoringinfluences skill development for engineering doctoral students. We investigated the followingresearch questions: 1) How, if at all, do interactions with advisor(s), faculty, and peers predict skill development (associated with primary funding mechanism) for engineering and physical

New systems, like Dyknow,SiliconChalk and Classroom presenter, provide students with a mechanism to drawrepresentations with computer tools, and then share them with an instructor. These are sent toinstructors who can then view the submission and share students’ product with the class. We areworking on a study to use the Classroom Presenter system as a method for investigating thepotential of these systems for engineering education learning environments.ConclusionIn our research we treat formative assessment as a powerful engine for teaching and learning, notas “a more frequent, finer-grained test” [3].

intrigued them.As is by now well understood, however, the modern situation is different. All a student needsto do is demonstrate skills in math and physics in high school and they will immediatelybe told by their counsellors that engineering is a good fit. And the students, by and large,accept this and apply to college as prospective engineering majors. It is only after arrivingat college that they begin to wonder exactly why they said they wished to be engineers -whether it really is the right avenue for them.The intent of our work is to support the education of mechanical engineers in a way thatcomplements traditional engineering education, as reflected in courses such as dynamics,vibrations, and so on. In such courses, the aim is to transmit a
