manydifferent campus efforts. Feedback from companies to faculty informs curriculum developmentand promotes industry relevance [3]. In some cases, sponsorships from partnering companies canprovide direct financial support for project materials and equipment. Additionally, industrypartners can act as a part of the institution’s broader professional network to connect graduatesand alumni to employment opportunities. For partnering companies, capstone sponsorship can provide a meaningful way to engagewith the future of engineering. Their participation can serve as an investment in their futureworkforce, as well as an opportunity to access unconventional solutions from students andfaculty. In some cases, partnering companies can provide meaningful

. Data for the EFA analysis were collected over atwo weeks in summer 2019 with students enrolled in an online undergraduate engineeringprogram at a large, southwestern public university. Recruitment emails to participate in theonline survey were sent to students by the chair of the program. Participants were instructed toconsider one particular online course when responding to the items on the survey. (Notably, mostparticipants were only enrolled in one course.) The order in which items were shown on eachscale was randomized to reduce the participant bias that can result from the order in which itemsare presented. Students could choose to enter a drawing for one of 250 $10 Amazon gift cards asa thank you for participating in the survey upon
; and • addressing STEM workforce development by building effective, mutually beneficial academic-industry partnerships [2].Participants were asked to collect baseline data from prior S-STEM (if applicable) and/or otherinitiatives on campus to inform their proposals. As noted by Pearson, Crosby, et al, “... projectsshould seek to couch locally identified problems and needs in the larger context of educationalresearch to help the broader STEM education community determine what interventions workbest with scholars in their environments” [3]. Therefore, PIs were strongly encouraged to seekinformation on program and institutional challenges they could address and study as part of theirS-STEM projects and share what they learned

In the firstcase, I found that the researchers used design as a means for learning (problem-based learning),associating the concept of social justice with how the participants addressed or solved social 10problems.

Paper ID #30723Implementation of the Question Formulation Technique as a TeachingStrategy in Renewable Energy Engineering EducationDr. Claudia Torres Garibay, Oregon Institute of Technology Dr. Claudia Torres Garibay is an associate professor in the Electrical Engineering and Renewable Energy department at Oregon Institute of Technology. Her educational background includes a Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin (2007), a M.S. in Materials Science at the Advanced Materials Research Center (Mexico, 2000), and a B.S. in Electrical and Industrial Engineering at Chihuahua Institute
University of Applied Sciences in Groningen, where he taught both in Dutch and in English. During this time his primary teaching and course develop- ment responsibilities were wide-ranging, but included running the Unit Operations laboratory, introducing Aspen Plus software to the curriculum, and developing a course for a new M.S. program on Renewable Energy (EUREC). In conjunction with his teaching appointment, he supervised dozens of internships (a part of the curriculum at the Hanze), and a number of undergraduate research projects with the Energy Knowledge Center (EKC) as well as a master’s thesis. In 2016, Dr. Barankin returned to the US to teach at the Colorado School of Mines. His primary teaching and course
essential in the design and operation of food processing systems. Among the variousengineering concepts and unit operations in food processing, the course mainly focuses onmaterial and energy balances, liquid and solid mass flow systems (pumps, pipes, fittings), andheat transfer and preservation processes (pasteurization, canning, dehydration), which areubiquitous in various industrial food and bio-processing operations. Subsequently, the studentsinterested in food processing as a career track are advised to take Food and Process EngineeringII and Food Bioprocess Technology to broaden their knowledge base concerning other unitoperations in food processing systems. The topics taught in AGEN 352 and the course outline aresummarized in Table 1.Table 1
