Mechanical Engineering Department, The Citadel, Charleston, SCAbstractThis study was conducted to support the Mechanical Engineering Department at our institutionin revising its curriculum by determining whether it is better to change the teaching model ofthermodynamics and fluid mechanics to that of two separated courses or to keep the currentteaching model as two-sequence blended course. The results of the direct assessment (midtermand final exams) and indirect assessment (students’ survey) showed that the two subjects wererelated and can be taught as a blended course (54 percent of responses) as long as the coursematerial is well-structured and taught by an experienced professor. Additionally, seventy percentof students preferred that instead of

Additionally, we have developed a suite of ethics-driven classroom games that havebeen implemented and evaluated across three universities, engaging over 400 first-yearengineering students. Now in its third year, we are modifying and (re)designing two of the game-based ethics interventions to (1) more accurately align with the ethical dilemmas in the EERI, (2)allow for more flexibility in modality of how the games are distributed to faculty and students, and(3) provide more variety in terms of the contexts of ethical dilemmas as well as types of dilemmas.As
