Based Learning Coursesas somewhat simplistic as it has been reported that there is as much variation within these groupsas between these groups (Bennett et al., 2008). However, with regards to advances in ICT, studentsrather than staff are the early adapters (Reijenga and Roeling, 2009) which can be intimidating tostaff as the students often understand the new technology at a much higher level than the teachers(Ali, 2013). Teachers have been reported to be resistant to incorporate ICT into their teaching due toa lack of ICT experience, a lack of on-site support and a lack of time to incorporate it into courses(Mumtaz, 2000). Research has shown that for engineering educators to adopt a new practise it mustbe clear how the innovation offers

Worldeducation rankings show the US lagging behind other nations in developing STEM skills [1]. Inorder to help overcome this widening gap, the US began a push for STEM opportunities for K-12students outside of schools, especially for reach underrepresented minority (URM) students whomay not have equal access to STEM opportunities. In 2007, the University of Arkansas Collegeof Engineering (UACOE) began offering summer programs to increase STEM exposure. In thesecamps, students are free to develop

They can be very useful in teachingbehavior, carrying out preliminary design, and checking software output for reasonableness. Inwhat can be considered a paradigm shift, today’s young engineers are themselves no longer theprimary producers of numerical solutions. They are increasingly users and managers of powerfulsoftware which carry out nearly all computationally-intensive tasks. We have also largely passedthrough a second stage computational maturity when engineers more often needed to preparecomputer programs to carryout analysis and sometimes design. In the
