The components of the device will be enclosed in a custom 3-D printed case, which willrequire students to place and measure the hardware components in a way such that they will fitinto a compact space while utilizing an innovative design for the outer shell. If 3-D printing isnot an available option, students can still use the free, open-source software to design a 3-D caseand use the dimensions of their design to create the case out of cardboard, poster board, or anyother appropriate materials.

movie theater. The LLC Council arrangedtransportation and tickets for students that indicated that they wanted to attend. This decisionwas supported by the LLC Council because it promoted teamwork.In April the Engineering LLC took a trip to Pittsburgh (about 1.5 hours away) to go to theCarnegie Science Center and Museum. This was chosen because there was a special exhibit atthe museum celebrating the life and innovations of Leonardo DaVinci. As he is considered oneof the first engineers, the LLC Council thought that students would benefit seeing what DaVinciaccomplished in his lifetime with limited resources. While in Pittsburgh, the students also wenton a tour and rode the historic Duquesne Incline. Since the trip took the majority of the day

The class will strengthen students’ability to analyze and communicate different issues and be informed citizens concerningimplementing new technologies. Students will understand the iterative nature of engineering,technology, and innovations that lead to paradigm shifts. The course will have in-classdemonstrations in the context of civilization's ever-evolving methods of modernizing. Centralquestions to be discussed in the course are: What are our expectations for new militarytechnologies? What are the impacts of “tools of war” on society?

coronavirus pandemic has created many problems for higher education, but as the sayinggoes, a crisis should not go to waste. Given that instructors are being forced to make radicalchanges to how they teach, we feel it is important to address the question Why not make changesthat will significantly improve student learning? We hope that this paper provides a usefulstarting point for implementing such changes, especially for instructors who are teaching onlinecourses.References[1] M. Prince, “Does Active Learning Work?

In our model, this corresponds to the removal ofbarriers and red tape that might hinder the development of innovative ideas that can foster significantadvancement. This can mean redesigning the curriculum, using every day examples in class andincreasing faculty student interaction.It turns out that good research supports these approaches. Engageengineering.org has research basedresources for faculty about how to do a better job interacting with our students [18]. Research says thatboth the extent and quality of student interactions with faculty affect student performance andretention. The affirmation of a faculty

For example, the University of Texas at ElPaso (UTEP) recently established an innovative Engineering Leadership (E-LEAD) bachelor’sdegree, the first of its kind in the U.S., whose engineering curriculum is grounded on collaborativelearning [7]. Other institutions have developed leadership programs that can be pursuedconcurrently with an engineering major, such as Georgia Institute of Technology, NortheasternUniversity, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Pennsylvania State University, University ofMaryland, University of Central Florida, Iowa State University, and West Point Military Academy[6], [8]. However, UTEP’s E-LEAD program is the only one to structure their

Butto strengthen the pipeline of future college graduates and professionals, access must begin muchearly on. So, the University of Cincinnati seeks to strengthen the access, preparation, and pathwayprograms for local K-12 students through the “CPS Strong” initiative. Multiple undertakings werepart of this initiative like collaboration of the Honors program and college graduates teaching inCincinnati Public Schools (CPS) to increase the number of University of Cincinnati graduates fromCPS. Under this initiative, the College of Engineering and

The project is producing units forteachers, who are implementing these units with support from master teachers and educationalscholars. The community serves as a forum for teachers to debrief and learn from each otherabout ways to improve their instruction and design of the curricular units. Libraries in the statesystem act as partners for dissemination to rural areas of the innovative instructional approaches.As a result, in addition to increased knowledge, there was a significant improvement inparticipants’ confidence with integrating CS into their practice as well as their beliefs that theycan affect student learning outcomes

negative emotional triggers. Personality traits have been shownto influence academic achievement. For instance, conscientiousness and openness haveconsistently emerged as a stable predictor of team performance, and openness predicts overallacademic performance and college performance [8]. In contrast, neuroticism is negativelyassociated with academic achievement. Schilpzand et al. [9] found that student teams diverse inopenness exhibited more creativity on their innovative class project; Horwitz & Horwitz [10] in astudy of personality diversity in team concluded that team performance is associated with teamsynergy.Sociogenic traitsSociogenic constitute one’s “second nature,” resultant from one’s social environment.
