In the JiTTIL project strategies and tools were developed to promotestudent engagement in introductory materials classes based on three major principles from thebook, How People Learn. The first principle is that instructors should be aware of and utilizestudents' prior knowledge to inform instruction. Prior knowledge and misconceptions areassessed at semester beginning with a Materials Concept Inventory (MCI) while conceptualchange is assessed at semester end by giving the MCI again and calculating conceptual gains.More detail on misconceptions and conceptual gain for five specific topics was determined withpre-post topical concept quizzes. The second principle is for instructors to actively engagestudents with one

This pivotal document, accompanied by its supporting documents and petitions,played a fundamental role in orchestrating the faculty-led trip. The MoU meticulously delineatedthe trip's goals, objectives, logistics, and safety measures, providing a structured framework forthe educational venture. Beyond serving as an informational guide, the MoU served as a linchpinfor securing essential funding and

With operational knowledge, a student can ‘predict’ a quantitative result; however without conceptual knowledge he or she may have difficulty explaining what the result means. 3.

Today’sengineers are entering into a world marked by rapid and global change. Factors such astechnological advancements, the need to be able to resolve problems quickly, the ability toconsider open-ended problems, the ability to cope well under information overload, etc., putfuture engineers under unfamiliar pressure.

Therefore, in instituting this model inengineering curricula, those factors that make engineering design as much of a social activity as amathematical process are neglected [2]. Neglected factors include the “systems methodology” and“engineering design” related processes such as need identification, problem formulation, development ofalternatives, and analysis and decision-making using prototypes and judgment. Also neglected are socialaspects such as cultural and environmental influences and processes such as working with a group ofindividuals.

decades of academic and industrialexperience and emerging evidence suggests that there is a further scope in making theeducation of students whole and complete by adding two new subjects to the generaleducation requirements: scientific framework for external excellence and scientificframework for internal excellence. These topics teach students: (1) How to do all that theydo in life in the best possible manner (science of external excellence) and (2) How to betheir internal best (science and practices of internal excellence). The introduction of topic(2) is important because in the absence of an adequate level of internal excellence,external excellence programs including the best of the best quality initiatives, fall short ofexpectations
