Session 1375 THE ABC’S OF ENGINEERING EDUCATION: ABET, BLOOM’S TAXONOMY, COOPERATIVE LEARNING, AND SO ON Richard M. Felder, Rebecca Brent North Carolina State University/Education Designs, Inc.If you are like most university professors, you were not taught anything about how to teach ingraduate school or when you began in your first faculty position. All you had to go on was howyour professors taught, but nobody taught them anything about teaching either. It doesn’t make alot of sense, but that’s our system. Teaching is too complex and too important a profession to let people do it

Steyn, engineering education cannot be solely based on memorization andtechnical calculation. It is imperative that the engineering students develop critical thinking skillsfor better understanding and reasoning of problems they may face professionally in the future.Critical thinking is the process of conceptualizing, applying, analyzing, synthesizing, and/orevaluating information obtained by observation, experience, reflection, reasoning

Oberst, who recently began collaborating with Jones on the Digest, hasidentified megatrends in engineering education, and higher education more broadly. In theconclusion which follows Oberst and Jones make some observations about likely trends inthe future, based on the backsight provided by the Digest items of the past three years.Concluding observationsØ Although the economists of the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund have failed in improving the status of people in poor countries through attempts at stimulating economic growth with foreign aid, we must find effective ways of ‘teaching people how to fish’ instead of sending them fish. Engineering education and technology development can provide the base for capacity

reported on, onlyfive articles reported using the statistical technique as opposed to using the term with some othermeaning. (For example, we saw articles refer to clusters of core classes or clustering studentstogether for collaborative learning; one article also reported the follow-up study to using clusteranalysis and was not included.) Table 1 includes characteristics of these studies using a taxonomyfor reporting cluster analysis informed by Clatworthy, Buick, Hankins, Weinman, and Horne.7Perhaps due to the relatively emergent status of engineering education research as a discipline,9few examples of clustering were identified. The scarce use of cluster analysis suggests the utilityof our methodological introduction and example here.Table 1
