innovative pedagogies that can help enhancethe employability of students. In response to this need, an exploratory study was conducted at asatellite campus of a large, Midwestern research-focused university. The intervention includedthe implementation of an entrepreneurially minded and communication-focused project,developed by the instructor of an upper-level undergraduate manufacturing course. Post-completion of the project, a metacognitive reflection assignment was administered to theparticipants and subsequently, data was collected. Participant responses were qualitativelyanalyzed using thematic analysis which led to the discovery of three themes: (1) identifyingvalue in nature-inspired design, (2) confidence in communication and self-expression

todevelop and employ innovative pedagogies to address the impediments to learning in an onlineenvironment. This proceeding describes the motivational impact on students from participatingin a semester-long asynchronous project to create a nature-inspired and entrepreneurially mindedpodcast in an online Engineering Technology course. The project's duration was intentionally anentire semester to encourage students to remain engaged in the overall course content. Thematicanalysis of student reflections indicates that participants were motivated in areas correspondingto Alderfer’s proposed categories of basic human needs: existence, relatedness, and growth. Theresults are presented and discussed concerning the motivational framework. Additionally

The objective of this project is to incorporateIndustry 4.0 skills and knowledge to the students in addition to learn the methods to stay currentin industry. The project deliverables are (1) students will present their work to the rest of theclass, and (2) submit a reflective paper on their experience. This paper will discuss the setup ofresearch problems, survey results of the student experience before and after working on theproject, and summary of findings on the student experience from the reflective papers. Reflectivepapers serve as a tool both to summarize the student experience and for continuous improvementin the context of this project and future

dyslexia, dysgraphia,dyspraxia, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and challenges related to executivefunctioning are among the factors that can create substantial barriers for students. These barriersare particularly pronounced in students with average to above-average intelligence, where thereexists a stark contrast between their understanding of complex technical material and their abilityto articulate this knowledge through writing. These challenges often result in written assignmentsthat fail to truly represent the student's level of comprehension and analytical abilities, therebynot reflecting their true potential or depth of understanding. Recognizing and addressing thediverse needs of neurodiverse students is crucial in

Thedisconnect box fed the power distribution box which fed the load and 24-volt sourcesthat powered the LIMS box and all the sensors. Although the connection of the sensorsto the LIMS box is straightforward, care must be taken to ensure that the sensors werewired correctly using the appropriate load resistor.Once the sensors were connected, the LIMS “engine” was configured and data wassuccessfully collected reflecting the use of voltage, current and temperature from theload.

Focus of theresearch was on innovative bio-inspired design that is backed by scientific evidence and the useof arts to convey the design. The students then expressed their opinions on their design projectusing a photovoice reflection of their learning. Student responses to the photovoice reflectionprompts related to the design were qualitatively categorized under three themes: 1)demonstrating the importance of entrepreneurial thinking from the end user’s perspective 2)stressing the importance of teamwork and communication and 3) using

] focuses on assessing student learning and experience to ascertainwhether students have acquired the skills, knowledge, and competencies related to their programof study. The ET department faculty use a combination of direct and indirect methods forassessment and evaluation of the SOs. The results and findings of these evaluations aresystematically utilized as input for the program’s CI actions[1], [13]. Direct methods requirestudents to exhibit their knowledge and skills as they respond to the instrument itself. Objectivetests, projects, laboratory work, presentations, and classroom assignments all meet this criterion[14]. Indirect methods such as surveys and interviews require students to reflect on their learningrather than to display it [12

methods.The assessment results from a student self-reflection survey for exposing vibration and modalanalysis support the need to expose mechanical engineering technology students to theseconcepts. Student responses to open ended questions indicate they are able to grasp someconcepts of vibration analysis using FEA as an analysis tool.IntroductionIt is understood that undesirable vibrations in mechanical structures can potentially lead toexcessive deflections and system failures. When the natural frequency of vibration of a structurecoincides with the natural frequency of excitation, resonance occurs, leading to excessivedisplacements [1]. These excessive displacements can cause an annoying oscillation in minorcases or can cause catastrophic failures

Recognizing the importance of building on prior understanding, instructors can bridgegaps and create connections between new concepts and what students already know. Thisfacilitates a smoother learning process and fosters a sense of relevance and engagement.Adapting course materials to reflect students' beliefs ensures that the educational contentresonates with their experiences, promoting a more inclusive and effective learning environment.In essence, the thoughtful curriculum adjustment based on student's prior knowledge and beliefscontributes to a more personalized and meaningful educational journey [16

Similarly, Pausigere argues that strong sequencing and pacing (i.e., astronger framing) can impede learning of primary math concepts for poorer and working classchildren [23]. Thus, the framing aspect of recontextualization has considerable effects on studentexperiences and success in academic settings.Thus, it is undeniable that Bernstein’s theory of the pedagogic device including the framing rulescan provide important insights into understanding students’ learning experiences. Hence, thisstudy uses this theoretical framework to understand how knowledge derived from differentdisciplines is recontextualized in an electrical

This activity remains relevant because the calculations are reflected inlaboratory measurements with the VAWT.AssignmentsThe activity spans five weeks. A problem set is completed once a week in class and part of thatproblem set is a simple series circuit, the model for the VAWT. The lab component meets once aweek, and this is where concepts are reinforced. It is not unusual for some students, usually thosewith no prior experience, to find the circuit analysis problem so different that they react bydisengaging and deciding it is not worth their time

are not explainedby a single theory [1, 8]. One solution that may help resolve these concerns about computernetwork education would be the use of computer network simulations [9]. Computer networksimulation is the imitation of real-world network communication scenarios using the software.The purpose of this simulation software is to reflect the quality of a given network designthrough the analysis of the performance of the simulation [7, 10]. Since computer networksimulation is a tool that is used regularly in the professional setting of network design andresearch, it would make sense that it would also be useful for educational purposes [9].
