These learning objects include course notes, diagrams,tutorial programs, demonstration and interactive applets, and even online mini-courses. Alongwith the link to the learning object, MERLOT provides a description of the content and, often,sample assignments demonstrating methods for incorporating it into courses.

actions. “Students mostly associated reflection withpositive actions rather than focusing on mistakes and failures” [3]. It is recommended to startreflecting early in the engineering program to better the students’ perceptions of the courses andthemselves, but this can only be the case if faculty are involved. The purpose of this study was tohelp the teachers create reflection activities to help with their students’ learning styles [3].Another study was conducted on three large institutions in the midwest to address how 2-yearstudents in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) courses perceivethemselves as learners. Each of the 31 students were interviewed to analyze how they reflect ontheir experiences. The purpose of this study

The workshop has hosted more than 140 power engineering educators. It wasmentioned that 75% of the electrical engineering programs across the United States require acombined course in energy conversion (electric machines) and power systems. As a result of theworkshop, it has been recommended that every electrical engineering program should have acombined course in electric machines and power systems to optimize the curriculum.
