play with the materials, tools, and theirideas in their home environments and how caregivers used different facilitation approacheswithout any training prior to engaging with the engineering kits. IntroductionConversations between caregivers and children create natural environments for children to play,practice, and learn [1]. Researchers have reported how conversations about science, technology,engineering, and mathematics (STEM) promotes a collaborative process of sense-making ofscientific literacy [2], sharing knowledge through explanation and questions [3], and developingacademic competency [4]. However, in general, studies that examined STEM-relatedconversations between caregivers and children
alleviate the problem, it is proposed tocombine some courses, eliminate some, and move some to different se mesters.First SemesterNo change is proposed in the first semester.Second SemesterIn the second semester, statics is moved to third semester and Surveying II is moved to secondSemester. The rational being that students need some calculus in order to understand someconcepts in Statics and therefore it is moved to this semester where Math III is offered.Surveying II on the other hand, does not need any advanced math and therefore, it is moved tothe Second Semester.Third SemesterStrength of Materials (SOM) and Dynamics are moved from the Third Semester to FourthSemester. Again math prerequisite for these courses requires them to be offered after

. Farr10 argues that acapstone engineering course develops essentials skills and connects coursework.Types of ExperienceStudents can gain experience through several types of situations. A case study is often used inearly management classes. This approach can be done in an active learning environment withrole play as students take on different characters. But, the case study fails to give the students afeel for the analytical aspects of a laboratory.Next on the spectrum of experience is the class project. In this environment, a student or teamapplies the course material in a controlled scenario. Due to the condensed time available in theclass setting, students are limited to the depth and breadth that can be addressed. Somecurriculums have

The most direct reason can be that the university simply lacks the expertise to teach the material itself.2. Industrial teachers convey an aura of 'this is the way it is actually done'. This is especially true when they are used for design-oriented courses.3. Industrial theses allow students to work on 'real' problems. This motivates them.4. An industrial

researchand education has been growing among faculty, although the number of courses offered on thetopic remains relatively low. Each of the authors teaches an infrastructure management course –one is an upper-level undergraduate elective, one is a graduate-level course, and one course isopen to both upper-level undergraduate and graduate students. The authors have workedtogether to develop and share course materials, as well as to integrate our research into thecourses.This paper builds on two papers previously presented at ASEE Conferences, the 2000 paper“Teaching Students to Manage Civil Infrastructure Systems”2 and the 2004 paper “EnhancingInfrastructure Management Education through Collaboration.”3 The focus of this paper,however, is on the

section. The next two sections describe how we divide our approach into two distinctphases: the “Learning Design” and “Implementing Design” phases. We then address some of thepractical aspects associated with the overall presentation of the course.Course OverviewOur new approach to digital design retains most of the topics and learning objectives from theprevious incarnation of this course, but presents the material in a unique order. The course topicsinclude number representation and theory, basic logic gates, Boolean algebra, HDL concepts,and general “design concepts”. The associated laboratory requires students to implement theirdesigns on FPGA-based development boards. We expect students to be able to design, model,and implement relatively

Such study materials can include classroom training, self-study materials, courseware, computer-based study materials, and privately-published or trade books. Eventually, such a course of study leads to a series of one or more tests aimed at examining an individual’s knowledge of the subject matter.

generallyunderstood that while computer engineers and electrical engineers will go on to utilize theprogramming aspects of the course more, everyone is to be taught the same. Because of theemphasis on programming, students must learn all of the basic concepts (loops, branching, andfunctions) and apply them to engineering problems. The author’s first attempt at teaching thiscourse to coding beginners resulted in many disgruntled and unhappy students as discovered onthe end-of-year teaching evaluations. The students were assumed to have significant priorprogramming knowledge and therefore felt lost during the majority of the course.In the subsequent semester, adjustments were made, the pace and material to be covered in classwas altered, and the use of more in
