It provides theplatform to build a community of practice that cultivates a sense of belonging for all 15undergraduate engineering scholars who participated in the 10-week GCSP-REU program. Eachparticipant applied and received a $6,000 stipend award to supplement their hands-on researchwith self-identified research mentors (faculty, staff, and/or graduate students). Additionally, thiswork describes the assessment data collected to determine the effectiveness of these strategieswith regards to both recruitment and retention of students in the Grand Challenges ScholarsProgram and

The seven ABET student outcomes1. 2. The course-student outcome mapping table. 3. The statement, “We need one or more Performance Indicators (PIs) for each student outcome. These PIs must be generic to the entire curriculum, but also specific enough to be able to relate to the courses to which the student outcomes are mapped.” 4.

andresources by the instructor, and difficulty adapting activities from others due to contextual andinstitutional differences are impediments to adopting small-group active learning pedagogies inthe STEM classroom. Yet the students in the STEM classroom remain hungry for hands-onlearning opportunities. It is also worth noting that the authors have informally observed thatcomputer simulation-based exercises are oftentimes not considered “hands-on” by many oftoday’s undergraduate students.This program addresses the aforementioned impediments and student attitudes by assembling adiverse pool of faculty members from a variety of backgrounds (mechanical engineering,electrical engineering, instructional specialists) from universities of every Carnegie

The field trip had six attractions: Legacy Theatre, Art of Manufacturing Theatre,Observation Deck, Assembly Plant, Legacy Gallery, and Living Laboratory Tour. The studentsvisited all six attractions and indicated in their report that they liked all the attractions of the fieldtrip.

One particular observation isthat students often rely on internet sources such as Chegg, YouTube, and discussion forums astheir first source of information rather than textbooks, class notes, and instructors. However,there is significant variability in reliability as well as relevance of these online resources inrelation to the contents taught in the classroom4.On the other hand, engineering students are usually tech-savvy, and many already have beenusing online videos to supplement their learning.

Traditional classroom teaching is more teacher centric whereas PBL is more studentcentric. Students are required to apply knowledge acquired in classroom to solve real-worldproblems. In today’s world, the engineering profession requires knowledge and experience to gohand-in-hand with skills and technical competencies. PBL has proven to be one of the ideal

More specifically, the literature highlights the ontological andepistemological tensions that can arise from the differences between the often implicitassumptions of objectivism and materialism in the sciences and understandings informed bysocial constructivism and interpretivism that underpin many forms of educational research [14,16]. Some of these issues have been previously explored in engineering education as “conceptualdifficulties” experienced by trained engineers learning educational research methods [17].

However, this is not always thecase so other innovative training methods are needed. “Learn by Doing” 2 is a motto at Cal PolyPomona. This motto is especially true for engineering education where practice is a key tocomprehend technical theories and skills.Service learning approach originated from the hands-on learning or experiential education.
