that theymaintain and troubleshoot.ConclusionsAn engineering technology-industry collaboration is described including the PurdueCollege of Technology in Columbus/Southeast Indiana and the Columbus RegionalHospital in Columbus, Indiana. Two specific projects are described. Both projectsinvolve the hospital boiler systems and focus on either (a) using an alternative fuel or(b) analyzing an economizer. Students were graded using rubrics on group andindividual oral presentations as well as a written research report. Group members werealso asked to rate the quality of the teamwork interactions within their groups usinganother rubric. While rubric results were good, identified trends within the scores couldbe used to reorganize the groups for future
experience. Instructors can adapt the content of the lab to the objectives and timeof the course, selecting a convenient number of experiments and choice of scope (i.e., modeldevelopment with estimation of parameters, process control with tuning parameters, correlationwith industrial applications, and teamwork performance and strategies).2. Collaboration can be arranged among groups of students, pivoting on our groups at the lab, toconduct and analyze experimental results, leading to the development of models and synthesis ofPID controllers. This can also be combined with team strategies for improved training andperformance in a more global environment of increasing importance. A more complex butfeasible version could be arranging for teams composed

Page 23.1383.1 c American Society for Engineering Education, 2013 Work in Progress: Collaborative Learning in Medical Electronics LaboratoryAbstractBackground: Modern industry requires engineers to function as effective team members,exhibiting strong communication and problem solving skills [1]. Collaborative learning improvesnot only the academic achievement of students, but also their interpersonal skills. ABET requiresengineering programs to incorporate collaboration in their curriculum and assess the student’scollaborative skills. Despite all this evidence, engineering education typically remains moreinclined towards individualistic or competitive learning.Design/Method

research, Passow and Passow[2] found that ‘Technical competence is inseparably intertwined with effective collaboration’.That is, communication and collaboration skills are just as important as problem solving skills tothe engineering process.Increasingly, educators and industrial leaders have recognized that engineering students also arequire a new set of skills to be successful in solving global problems that have developed in aninterdependent world [3]. Parkinson et al [4], has described 13 specific skills or abilities ascollectively “global competencies”. Among the most important of these skills are: 1) an ability to appreciate other cultures, 2) an ability to work proficiently within a team of ethnic and cultural diversity
