advantages such as natural inclusion of complex digital media (graphsand charts) along side active concept development (instructor annotations). In otherwords, the instructor can make their thinking visual by maintaining a real-time mixture ofcomplex engineering concepts and expert annotations. In addition, the instructor 1) ismobile, 2) can face the class and 3) does not obstruct the view of the material as it ispresented. These logistic features provide a more fluid and coherent lecture, which shouldpromote information gathering and understanding of the material by a student. In terms oflearning, a student’s comprehension is presumably enhanced due to the synchronizationof note taking with verbal descriptions of the material. To test this

. Recognizing that engineers need material from both semesters of the traditional twosemester sequence, a new one-semester course was developed. This course has been designedaround the pedagogical theme that "The properties of larger particles are based upon theproperties of their constituent particles and their interactions". As such, the students areintroduced to "modern" physics. To deliver a course such as this effectively , we have found thatwe need to adopt innovative teaching techniques including: focusing on the recitation, frequentfeedback, the use of the studio-format, closer integration of the laboratory experience with thecourse, self-directed laboratory exercises, context- based learning, and the use of the internet.The course structure

The first year curriculum is essentiallyidentical for all students and the Division of Engineering Fundamentals serves as their home.The Division’s 13 faculty teach the two first-year engineering classes (EF1015 and EF1016) anda variety of sophomore level programming and graphics classes. EF1015 and EF1016 are both 2credit hour courses typically offered in the fall and spring, respectively. In addition to teaching,EF faculty are the advisors of the 1200+ first year students.BackgroundUntil the fall of 2001, EF1015 topics included ethics, the engineering profession, problemsolving, programming with MatLab, statics; material balance; electricity; and energy.Traditional EF1016

The key components of LCs at A&M are: (1) clustering of students in commoncourses (math, engineering, science); (2) teaming; (3) active/cooperative learning; (4) industryinvolvement in the classroom; (5) technology-enhanced classrooms; (6) undergraduate peerteachers; (7) curriculum integration; (8) faculty team teaching; and (9) assessment andevaluation. Based on the experience with its pilot curricula and the experiences sinceinstitutionalization in 1998-99, A&M believes that the LCs offer a superior educationalexperience for engineering students.

We provide a visual comparison of both the engineering and engineeringtechnology majors as part of the advising guide we are developing so that students betterunderstand the differences and similarities from the perspective of curriculum. Figure 2 showsthat the engineering major is much more mathematically rigorous than the ET major. Table 2summarizes the notable comparisons between the two majors. These comparisons show the levelof flexibility of the ET major with more technical elective courses and fewer required mathcourses. The ET major requires an algebra-based curriculum, instead of calculus-basedcurriculum of the engineering major

, there is a need to incorporate thisinto the curriculum as a focal point of teaching software development to undergraduate computerscience students.BackgroundVariants of agile development have been slowly integrated with traditional approaches intocourses, most commonly in capstone courses and project management courses. (e.g., [3, 4, 5, 6]).However, it is rarely a focal point as most textbooks provide minimal content on Agile[7]. Thereis a need to incorporate Agile into both the content and pedagogy of courses[8]. Agile has beencombined with service-learning[9], but there has not been a lot of work integrating Agile withactive learning techniques. A specific implementation of agile that is inherently and especiallyactive is Scrum. Scrum or a

Object classification consists of theappropriate neural network architecture for training and learning object characteristics from datasets. Collision avoidance utilizes a single camera to estimate the distance of the vehicle from theobject. The hardware and software requirements of the integrated project platform are met bycost-effective resources. In addition to serving as a testbed

As such, a model wasdiscussed to address four critical areas that will help us reach those goals: 1) effectiveacademic and social integration, 2) appropriate financial support, 3) narrow perceptionof the field of cybersecurity and available career paths, and 4) role models/mentors. Themodules developed for the academic engagement section of the model was well-received by the teachers who participated in a one-week summer program. Our hope isthat the model can be used to increase teachers’ and students’ interest in cybersecurity,thus, providing the social and academic support to keep students interested in the fieldin their transition from high school to college.
