Clustering approaches have been used inbiology, psychology, archeology, industrial engineering, marketing, computer vision, characterrecognition, machine learning and other fields, and are often use for exploratory pattern analysisand grouping when little is known about the data.To situate a discussion of cluster analysis in the engineering education discipline, we performed asearch for the terms “cluster” and “cluster analysis” within 24 volumes of the JEE, a leadingengineering education research journal, available online.

A three-step process was introduced. Step 1 dealt with product analysis based on function, operatingconditions, cost, service life, risk of failure, and recyclability of a product. Step 2 examined therequired material properties (strength, stiffness, density, etc.), whereas Step 3 focused on theidentification and evaluation of candidate

Afterbrainstorming a number of ideas, the faculty instructor approached the local Habitat forHumanity (HfH) affiliate and asked them if they would be willing to collaborate. This choicemade sense because HfH is active in the local community, and they are seeking to deepenpartnerships with the university and university students. At the time, the local HfH affiliate wasfocusing their efforts on rebuilding homes in a nearby community that had experienceddevastating floods two years before. They invited the students to work on one of their projectswhich involved reconstruction of a home that had been completely destroyed, pictured in Figure1.

We believe the techniques developed in this classwill significantly transform the MOOC environment. Effective education requires students tolearn by doing. In the traditional academic setting this active learning is achieved through a labcomponent. Translating this to the online environment is a non-trivial task that required severalimportant factors to come together. First, we have significant support from industrial partnersARM Inc.
