the number of independent equations. The solution may be obtained by hand, and this generally requires algebraic manipulation. Alternatively, the solution of any number of equations, linear or non-linear, can be achieved with a modern engineering tool. With the intelligent application of verification (Step 8), the computer program is a much more reliable calculation device than a calculator. The students are allowed to select the modern engineering tool of their choice, and this might include Mathcad [11], Matlab [12], and TKSolver [13]. The authors have not seen this solution procedure in any machine design or mechanics of materials textbook.8. Verify. This critical step is a critique of the answer and is discussed in-depth in

Due to the hybridnature of the classes, it requires more effort, hard work and innovation by the instructors to makesure that the students learn the material effectively as well as retain the knowledge. This gavebirth to an idea to develop a course learning structure for effective student learning and success.The course structure discussed can be applied to hybrid as well as online only course learningenvironments with full application to traditional face-to-face learning.

consumption per capita(ranking 1st and 2nd in the nation, respectively (Yang et al., 2020)), there is no comprehensiveacademic program related to building energy systems in this state, thus limiting the production oflocal professional engineers in the field of building energy systems. Therefore, an increase incourses related to building energy systems may satisfy the demand of local professionalengineers. As AR technology makes students access the online course simpler through mobiledevices, it may help the state train more professional engineers through opening more onlinecourses related to building energy systems. However, as mentioned above, there are no mobileAR apps regarding the comprehensive education of building energy systems. This paper

As such, numerous institutions have implementedadditional programs/centers that foster communication and leadership skills to undergraduatestudents, while various scholars have encouraged and implemented these skills in their researchgroups. Marquez and Garcia, for instance, studied the effects of incorporating communication andleadership skills, as a scaffolding process, with students participating in engineering undergraduateresearch [18]. In the study, five technical aspects, or scaffolds, were incorporated to reinforceengineering curriculum, develop research aptitude, and enhance cognitive development such asliterature review, design, implementation, testing, and research [18].

This served twoadditional purposes – one was that they could continue to work on a different problem whilewaiting for help, and second, was that it also alleviated the anxiety of introverted groups.Several times during the semester, the free-response questions were replaced by short in-classprojects which they would start using MATLAB programming and outlined for a post-classactivity. Examples of such problems include a) computing the length of a curve drawn using a sewing-ruler-flexible curve on an engineering graph paper, b) finding the volume occupied by a complex-shaped three-dimensional object such as a champagne glass via only

They found anumber of courses with collaborative learning experiences, projects staffed by multiple students,and some degree of instruction in teaming, but conclude that the teaming experience in acurriculum can contain significant gaps.One of the challenges of teamworking is finding the time to provide instructor guidance withinthe scheduled classroom time.

As an alternative, this paper considers theeffectiveness and benefit of focusing on the documentation and presentation of engineeringanalysis and design work rather than hands-on projects. In a series of activity assignments,students are required to compose short technical reports which document their engineeringanalysis in professional form. Each subsequent assignment had an increased level of analysiscomplexity and documentation which related to the course material. A mid-semester survey

In this work-in-progress paper, we examine some emergent patterns found in thejoint activity systems of a STEAM summer program; especially we describe two emergent,distinct patterns of collaborative interaction which we label as “type 1” and “type 2,” oneof which we find to be more conducive to the kind of collaboration that can foster“relational just” interactions. Within diverse engineering classrooms, research suggests that creating andmaintaining equitable and productive joint activity can be a continual challenge forteachers as part of a larger complex and difficult process (Shah & Lewis, 2019). Withinthis study, we choose to view learning activity through a joint activity lens due to the factthat research suggests this

Similarly, we suggest programdevelopment work exploring the integration of these (and related) virtues into E/C programs anddevelopment of best practices for assessing effectiveness. Lastly, identifying these core virtueshighlights the need to raise the level of analysis in which our students engage, to address thegoals of engineering and the capacity of engineers to practice engineering in a way that promoteshuman flourishing [35].References[1] J.
