Session 3142 Collaborative Environments for Managing Industrial Projects S. Gary Teng, Paul Cheng-Hsin Liu Engineering Management Program, The University of North Carolina at Charlotte/ California State University, Los AngelesAbstractEmbedding industrial projects into engineering education is becoming popular in engineeringschools. The logistics involved in sending students to companies to work on projects iscomplicated and time consuming. Therefore finding an effective way to monitor and manageindustrial projects is crucial for faculty to gain long-term success in implementing

A secondary benefit to this project has been the valuable collaboration between femalefaculty from different engineering departments and at various levels of seniority in theinstitution.

The focus of thiseffort has been to introduce young people to careers at the hospital or in the medicalprofession that are unrelated to training in medicine. Indeed, careers in computertechnology and mechanical engineering technology are emphasized.A short presentation is given by representatives from both the hospital and PurdueUniversity

Inmost instances engineering design courses are offered during the senior year of theundergraduate curriculum, which allows the students to apply different engineering concepts todesign a product. To better prepare engineering students for the current workplace, which isdistributed and global, an education environment that will imitate development of real productsin a distributed and collaborative environment is required.

The complexityof engineering problems has required engineers to work effectively in multidisciplinary teams.Therefore, multidisciplinary capstone design has been becoming a regular practice in engineeringschools. However, collaborative design among multiple disciplines for non-capstone courses hasbeen neglected. In spring 2018, students enrolled in Measurements and

this collaborative work, andour current process for analyzing our data sources. Context In the first year of our Engineering Education Ph.D. studies, we conducted design-based research studies that involved co-design elements. We attend a liberal arts institution, each with two Ph.D. advisors, have one advisor in common, and contribute to external research groups. We did two separate research studies with our respective research groups, the designs of which are detailed in the next section. In this work, we reflect on our individual experiences and identify common themes from our self-reflections and the data sources from our studies.

research thus places more emphasis on thepsychological development of students, that is, the efficiency of individual students in retainingscientific concepts.Social constructivism as an educational philosophy often calls for student-centered, collaborative(e.g., team-based), active learning which allows students to construct their own knowledge.Social constructivism has become a dominant paradigm in American engineering education. Italmost seems to be unnecessary (if not a “taboo”) in the community of engineering education toquestion the effectiveness of active learning. Research that compares active learning with more“traditional” ways of teaching such as lecturing seems to be unnecessary. Nevertheless,institutional resources at American
