social interaction problems nowadays, as research indicated“the majority of coursework in engineering education today focuses on technical knowledge and skills ofmathematics, science, and engineering as well as new graduates generally feel prepared for the technicalaspects of practice, but many have difficulty transitioning to the socio-technical practices and culture ofthe workplace[28] ”.Additionally, to explore the collaborative inquiry deeply, we conducted a longitudinal study for threeinnovative engineering design works (arc-path prediction, parallel design of robot structure andsymmetrical design for robots) in our research case “Robo”. It can be seen that the three dimensions ofcollaborative inquiry are significantly repeated in different

a meaningful job while going to school and testing degree interests in real-world situations. Co-op students frequently qualify for higher starting salaries after graduation because of their experience. Many organizations participate in the co-op program to develop future employees, offering permanent positions to numerous former co-op students after graduation. Fellowships are typically a merit-based scholarship, or form of academic financial aid. They may provide students and scholars with support to pursue independent or guided research projects of value to the granting agency.Rational for a Graduation RequirementNetworkingOne of the most powerful networking tools available for engineering
science background includes degrees in Botany and Forest Ecology. Dr. Bell’s interest in sharing science with others led him to earn a teaching license and then teach science for six years in a rural high school in Eastern Oregon, where he was recognized as the Oregon Science Teachers Association’s ”New Science Teacher of the Year.” Eventually, Dr. Bell’s interest in educational research and science teacher preparation led him back to graduate school, where he earned the PhD in Science Education in 1999. For the past 16 years, Dr. Bell has been heavily involved in teaching preservice teachers, providing professional development for practicing teachers, and research and development re- lated to teaching and learning
