Thiscourse, a third-year Engineering Materials Science course taught by the second author, is arequired course for Integrated Engineering and an elective for Mechanical and Industrial andSystems Engineering students. This course was designed to introduce engineering students to thefundamentals of materials science engineering. Modules were accompanied by homework andexam questions to reinforce the relevance of these topics to the overall class. Incorporating socialcontent into engineering courses requires an intentional, sustained, and consistent approach thatbears in mind student’s limited time, conflicting priorities, and level of maturity.Of the four modules, two have

In this project,the Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) 3D printing technique was used for the fabrication ofbone scaffold models using various polymer and biopolymer filaments. Polymer scaffolds(1×1×1 cm3 cubes) with different infill geometries and densities were fabricated. The mechanicalproperties of these scaffolds were

Such IBS may impede learning becausestudents have difficulty with undefined or misdefined terms, lack of necessary skills, ormisconceptions and other issues. After IBS are uncovered and diagnosed, they can inform theinstructor of the aforementioned issues, then she or he can compensate and correct their IBS in acurrent class and, with that awareness, change instructional strategies and content to avoid themin future classes. This can result in more positive class learning outcomes.In introductory materials classes, formative feedback from students through muddiest points andother mechanisms can reveal students’ learning issues such as misdefined vocabulary, knowledgegaps, difficult concepts, and

Thestudents enjoy the lecture because it is a learning environment they are accustomed to, and sincethey have already been exposed to the material they are encouraged to sit back, not take notes,and think about what is being said.

The benefitscan include increased student engagement and more attention paid to individual students’ needs.Potential downsides of flipped classrooms include the difficulty some students have in learningnew material on their own. Flipped classrooms have been applied successfully to statics courses[1-3]. This approach was also used in a mechanics of materials course [4] and in a machinedesign course [5].
