This teaching concept is not new, and was implemented inmechanical engineering programs under the name Wright State Model 10. Similar to 10, ourresulting model shifts traditional emphasis on pre-requisite requirements to an emphasis onengineering motivation for those pre-requisites, with a just-in-time structuring of them.Additionally, the model uses an industrial application-oriented, hands-on approach, to addresscomputer network concepts that are traditionally taught theoretically, at an abstract level.

Society for Engineering Education, 2018 Redesigned Application Oriented Integral Calculus CurriculumAbstractThis paper presents the development of an application based curriculum for an integral calculuscourse, a project funded by the KEEN Foundation. Textbook examples are frequentlydisconnected from students’ immediate environment or use past data of little interest. In addition,information given on the subject is at most sketchy and the practical purpose of solving theseexamples is not clear. This lack of vivid applications in calculus courses motivated us to developcontent that can be used by instructors to enhance students’ learning experience by engagingthem directly in solving problems and applying attained skills to real life

In addition, we need to be more attentive to datacollection and creating better ways to have more objective evaluations of the work.Based on the results and, now, better understanding of this integration, we believe there is astrong potential to use the soft skills modules (possibly with adjustments/adaptation) in ourengineering department’s curriculum including its manufacturing engineering program.

of the more effective approachesinvolves asking students to role play or place themselves into the case scenario and explain howthey would have responded [10, 11].While such activities are commonplace, others have argued that case study is insufficientbecause of its backward-facing nature, making it challenging to consider future concernsconnected to emergent technologies and needs [12]. One way to address this concern is to use aphased approach beginning with cases, followed by integrated ethics tasks, and culminating in afull course [13]. Increasingly, engineering programs are seeking ways to integrate ethics throughthe curriculum [14, 15] or in tandem with service learning programs [16, 17].
