Team BAlex also had insight on the hackathon environment and its motivational aspects, “I think themotivation is definitely higher. I would say so because, I mean, there's more at stake here. It's notonly the prizes, but it's also the social aspect, and it's really just fun staying up all night coding tohave these sessions. It's four in the morning. You're tired, but your creativity is still flowing,”(Alex Post). Prior to hacking, Mark explained their plan for managing the team, “Like our idea,divide it up into

A scarcity ofresources should not prevent an engineering school from providing scientific writing assistanceto graduate students, as they can encourage the growth of a peer learning community.5.2 Future workAs stated earlier, our learning community has been growing and continues to grow organically tomeet the needs expressed by students. Therefore, we plan to continue to develop new ideasarising from student feedback and hope to recruit more and more students, faculty, and staff intothe learning community.In the near future, we intend to develop online toolkits for students to organize and animateactivities on their own.

and potential collaborationbetween engineering librarians and mechanical engineering faculty. For the course in this study,the plan for next year will be to use these instructional activities again. It also has started thediscussion of where additional library collaboration earlier in the mechanical engineeringprogram would be appropriate and beneficial. This additional exposure and training will buildfamiliarity with information fluency skills, which may be perceived as difficult, but are essentialin the professional environment.Works Cited[1] G.

. Part of the grade is assigned based on the relative performance of the team’s solution compared to the best team. Because performance is measured in several categories, the team that is best in one category may not be in another. The demonstration periods provide key points for groups to observe and reflect.Our interest in experimentation and prototyping has been motivated both by our anecdotalobservations of many senior design teams and advice from industrial contacts. In the seniordesign process, students often attempt to build a final product without adequately planning forsubsystem interactions, non-ideal component behavior, verification of engineering assumptions,and other aspects where prototyping and design iterations

Guest speakers came from industry, from consulting firms that focus oncommunity engagement, and from academia. For their final essays, students synthesized thesemester’s reading to critically analyze the potential for CSR to deliver shared social,environmental, and economic value to stakeholders. In groups, they gave presentations on thearticles, lead one class discussion, and created a stakeholder engagement plan for a real worldengineering project. The course focused primarily on the community engagement dimensions ofCSR, with gestures to the role played by engineers and engineering.Spring 2017

Most of the students had a good reason for not having developed coding skills, and onceidentified, I could give those students the extra attention they needed since they also agreed thatthey had a deficiency. At this level, the three important steps are to 1) identify deficiencies, 2) havethe student agree to devote the time and effort required to overcome the deficiencies and 3) lay outa plan for the student's success.3 Another Experience: From Mathematics to Computer
