But it was only for two weeks, I feel that at that freshman and sophomore age we need more on how to work in teams on these projects.”Past Academic Experience and ProjectsWhen starting the second section of questions, the earlier education questions revolved aroundelective courses, what was available, and which one’s students took or wanted to take. All thestudents did have elective courses in their schools, some had more than others. In the schoolswhere shop classes or engineering courses were available, students seemed to gravitate towardsthose opposed to other art-based courses or choir. Most

Session 3630 Quantitative and Qualitative Research Methods: Bridging the Gap Alisha A. Waller, Ph.D. Georgia State UniversityAbstractIn the past decades, engineering educators have published interesting research, mainly usingquantitative research methods. A few studies have used qualitative research methods, but nonehas effectively combined both approaches for a more comprehensive understanding of theunderlying issues. In this paper, I discuss qualitative and quantitative methods and theirtheoretical frameworks, and review the work of Tonso, published through the
typicalHCI textbooks, many of which have been cited in the discussion above. All of these deal with thebroader approach of user-centered development. However, there is no substitute for real-world Proceedings of the 2005 ASEE Gulf-Southwest Annual Conference Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi Copyright © 2005.

The selection processbegan by looking at private, Christian universities with an ABET accredited engineeringprogram.
