Theycan do so by following a constructivist instructional design approach, guided by reflectivethinking on their teaching styles, and collaborative work with others. They can do so by allowingchange to take place and by becoming aware of their own knowledge and limitations, and bytaking the time to redesign their courses, one lesson at a time, one module at a time.Bibliography1.

Rather thaneschewing creativity as ephemeral, and therefore unreliable, as many engineering educators viewit 11, we should instead, show how creativity can be used in the service of constrained, if ill-structured, projects, requires collaboration, and ultimately allows students to develop bettersolutions than when we teach design without explicitly addressing creativity.The Role of Requirements in

By broadening the applications of robotics to human-centereddesigns, the field of soft robotics may be a platform to engage a diversity of students in K12robotics and later, engineering majors. Until now, most

Engineering Education, 2016Curiosities Regarding Exam Review Sessions at LSU’s College of EngineeringIntroduction As enrollment increases at Louisiana State University (LSU), it becomes morechallenging for students to be actively engaged with their professors and in their own learningprocesses. The larger class sizes and reduction in state funding contribute to a poorer learningenvironment (1, 2). This struggle is compounded in sophomore level courses, where many studentsconsider dropping out of their respective engineering programs (3). In 2014, the authors publisheda paper discussing how these barriers can be somewhat alleviated by offering peer led activelearning sessions through Supplemental Instruction (SI) (4).
