expanded their offerings to international graduate stu-dents beyond residential studies. Advances in teaching and learning technology have played a keyrole in enabling remote instruction to these students. In particular, synchronous instruction andengagement with peers within a cohort have been shown to improve the educational experienceand lead to high persistence rates.It has previously been reported that instructional technology can be used to teach a full master’sdegree program in electrical and computer engineering to international graduate students in a syn-chronous fashion. To increase engagement, students study in the program as cohorts and collab-orate in the classroom and in completing a significant engineering project. This technology

Qualitycontrol concepts can also be taught in an applied laboratory or industry internship setting.The use of Overall Equipment Efficiency (OEE) provides manufacturing students with a broaderperspective both at the machine level as well as at the plant level in order to optimize output.Increasingly being coupled with IoT analytics, OEE, can be more easily assessed throughout themanufacturing operation [18]. Students learn that the strength of the OEE index is in makinglosses more transparent and in highlighting areas that need improvement [19]. The introductionof

She has worked to increase students understanding of software development and the impact it can have on society. She is especially interested in broadening the perspective of the introductory Computer Science student beyond the programming concepts typically taught in these courses. She uses HFOSS projects as a means to providing real-world experience and finds that students are motivated, showing increased participation in classroom discussion especially among women. She is Co-PI on an NSF-funded project to assist faculty who are
grasping the main concepts which Statics isreally intended for. Moreover the major part of the relevant literature review reveals, that stillsome instructors teach Statics through traditional type of lectures which is less interactive, aswell as, the student engagement and the design problems' relevancy to the real world is limited.In addition to this, in many cases, the instructors mainly test students on the accuracy of themathematical operations used in solving the problems rather than utilizing a specific strategy tomeasure if the students have actually learned the core concepts of the course. Through thismodule of course design, the author has strived, first to identify the curricular priorities for thecourse that match with course objectives

And indeed, in a country where public education systems (both K-12 and highereducation) still seem organized by race and class, what then does the “pipeline” represent?Xie and Shauman15 note three main concerns with pipeline metaphors: firstly, they argue that thepipeline models a “unidirectional, orderly, and rigid series of stages, and it equatesnoncompliance with the normative career trajectory to ‘leaking’ or ‘dropping out’ of thepipeline.” (p. 8) This results in overlooking, for example, potential entrances of non-traditional-aged women into the educational pipeline, or the possibility of

Their main benefits include the ability to assess conceptualmastery in depth due to their adaptive dialogic nature, in addition to improving students’ verbalskills and serving as a tool to support academic integrity. However, assessments not only play animportant role in measuring the level of students' understanding, but the assessment method
research on the factors that influence retention in engineering. Johnsonand Sheppard [1], in their study of the 1990 high school class through undergraduate engineeringmajors and beyond, identified points where the numbers of engineering majors dropsignificantly. Much past research has focused in students who leave engineering and why theyleave [2].In a research study across 17 universities, Besterfield-Sacre et al. [3] found that women hadlower self-confidence about their studies than men. Women and URM students often feelexcluded from engineering due to negative social cues from faculty and students [4], [5], [6],[7].

Even though you manage to avoid intense feelings of paranoia most of the time,there are moments when you just have to stop and wonder how much this technology has madeyou vulnerable to the evil that man can do. As you spend time worrying, scientists and engineers,like those that made all this exciting technology possible, are hard at work creating mechanismsthat may not make you safe in an absolute sense, but perhaps as safe as it can be managed.

Aftercompleting a quiz, students were given access to their original quiz submissions, but the correctanswers were not revealed to them. This was done to encourage students to revisit their workand think about the steps they went through to solve the quiz.

The purpose of the analysis was to identifymanifest and latent messages about the engineering profession’s institutionally sanctionedimaginaries of “the public.”Guided by a theoretical framework of social imaginaries, three reviewers used qualitative dataanalysis to identify prevalent themes in how the engineering profession tends to conceptualize“the public.” Ninety-nine codes were developed and were broadly divided into six themes:characterizations of “the public,” professional duties related to “the public,” relationship betweenengineers and “the

, ecological engineering, to be truly aunique engineering discipline, must be based on ecology. It could perhaps be more simplydefined as: The engineering discipline with ecology as its fundamental science base. In this casethe application of ecological engineering could stretch beyond working with ecosystems andinfluence all engineering practice, representing a new paradigm for engineering design.However, the question of whether there is a way of practicing engineering that is significantlydifferent from current practices, and is based on an understanding of ecology, remains. This hasnot been shown, but we believe the answer is yes.The second principle above relates to application. While ecological engineering may represent anew way of engineering

The seeming disparity between our Cohen’s d being greater thantutoring yet our post-quiz scores being less than tutoring is most likely due to larger variance (S)for the tutoring studies reported by Bloom and Walberg.
