Strategically hired for the P12 STEM initiative, Dr. Mentzer prepares Technology and Engineering candidates for teacher licensure, conducts research and mentors graduate students. Nathan has taken an active role in guiding the evolution of the undergraduate teacher education program, an Integrated STEM education concentration and a minor in design and innovation at Purdue informed by his National Science Foundation funded research on Design Thinking. Nathan is strategic in connecting theory, practice and research. He engages P16 educators in research efforts to develop innovative pedagogical strategies situated in STEM
requires two key things: (1) the definition of measurable course objectivesthat capture the fundamental concept strands—the DNA—of the course and (2) frequentassessment that incorporates the redundancy of demonstration required to confidently concludemastery. The process of developing this system had a significant impact on the nature of thecourses and informed the topical content and development of course materials. The mainmotivation for moving to a mastery-based grading system was to change the way students thinkabout and experience assessment. The frequency of assessment reduces some of the stress of thetesting environment and the redundancy promotes a spiral learning approach that helps studentsconnect the components of the problem-solving

In practice, one of the challenges that these groups face is the osten-sibly disparate set of expectations of project goals and outcomes. To be successful, collaboratorsmust be both aware and sensitive to these needs of those outside their discipline. One exampleof

paper we describe a simulated electricity market game that the authors have developed as acompanion activity for this course. In the market model game, students are issued a fleet of virtualpower plants, each with physical and economic constraints defined, and participate in a simulatedday-ahead electricity market over the course of the term. In this way, students become activeparticipants in the decision making process of selling electricity, giving them a much deeperunderstanding than lecture or reading alone could.This work is an example of teaching college level engineering material through having studentsplay a game, and fits into the context of many other educators work on what is has been termed“gamification for education” or “game-based

The success ofthe project and student feedback suggest that integration of these software tools will be beneficialfor improving student performance in the Dynamics course that all mechanical engineeringundergraduates have to undertake.I. IntroductionComputer simulation of dynamic systems is a valuable tool for engineering analysis and design. Itallows for active experimentation, design modification, and subsequent analysis withoutinvestment in raw materials and supplies.The ’chalk and talk’ style of teaching and instruction attempts to transmit knowledge from theteacher to a passive recipient. There is a growing awareness among engineering educators thatwhile this style of instruction is suitable for teaching engineering analysis

Many factorscan play a role in getting different results in this type of study, for instance, if the freshmanstudents had previous experiences in K-12 making a conscious review of learning objectives andoutcomes defined for their courses.Some of the comments provided by the students in the CI-120 course were: • “I believe that they are important and they highlight the main learning objectives of the course material”Some of the comments provided by the students in the CI-450 course were: • “Knowing learning outcomes ensure I focus on the right things” • “They help give a better understanding & you can use them to identify knowledge gaps” • “It is very nice to know what to expect and how to prepare” • “Knowing the

Technology in the College of Education at Purdue University. Dr. Exter’s research aims to provide recommendations to improve or enhance university-level design and technology programs (such as Instructional Design, Computer Science, and Engineering). Some of her previous research has focused on software designers’ formal and non-formal educational experiences and use of precedent materials, and experienced instructional designers’ beliefs about design character. These studies have highlighted the importance of cross-disciplinary skills and student engagement in large-scale, real-world projects. Dr. Exter currently leads an effort to evaluate a new multidisciplinary degree program which provides both liberal arts and

Microsoft also offers a lot of certificates starting from a simplecertificate such as Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) to a more complicated certificate such asMicrosoft Certified System Engineer (MCSE). In this paper, we will address two of the mostpopular network certificates, CCNA and Network+, and how they can be integrated into one ormore network courses.2.

theassembly language view of the processor. At roughly midterm, students start with the nod4implementation document4. In other courses having a focus only on the architecture, theprocessor can be presented without the implementation. Courses with a lack of developmenttools can use the implementation document for reference. With the development tools on hand, aproject can be assigned to actually implement the project. Otherwise, students could possiblyuse an existing implementation to investigate the nod4 processor, considering changes to thenod4 architecture and implementation. There are many opportunities such as adding peripherals,new instructions, and addressing modes. Each document includes homework exercises.The nod Series HistoryFor my first
