In this paper, we presentthe implementation of an innovative digital environment and set of experiments for couplingmotion simulation and educational practices together in an engaging, learner-centered approach.2 Cyber-Enhanced Implementation: Dynamics EducationThe theory of vehicle dynamics is familiar to all students in an engineering curriculum, in thateveryone has either driven or been a passenger in an automobile. Thus, vehicle motions areinherently familiar to the student. Also, with over 40 million vehicles being manufactured eachyear worldwide16, advances in computing technology and vehicle systems have expanded theinfluence engineers have over the stability and control of vehicle

Theseranged from one week programs to six week programs, and whenstarted the goal of these programs was to increase interest in STEM(Science, Technology, Engineering and Math). Though these programswere popular we didn’t see many of these students apply to theUniversity of Colorado when they got to that stage.

frontfor students. The need to provide an earlier understanding of the field of bioengineeringoriginates not only from ASU student feedback, but also from more general reports generated onS.M.E.T. (Science, Mathematics, Engineering, and Technology) education. In Elaine Seymour’sarticle, “Revisiting the “Problem Iceberg”: Science, Mathematics, and Engineering Students StillChilled Out” she details findings on why equally capable students (mathematic S.A.T. scores of650 minimum) switched to non-S.M.E. majors. At the top of the list is “a lack, or loss, orinterest in science,” with an overall conclusion that students switch majors based on “career -related concerns.” In better introducing first year students to bioengineering at ASU and in thelocal

“Ethical Dimensions of Technology” (ENGR 102) wasintroduced in fall 2007. ENGR 102 immediately became popular with our junior and seniorstudents, who were pleased to use an engineering-related course to help fill their university corerequirements. We feel that ENGR 102 had an immediate and sustained positive impact on theFE metric scores associated with ABET outcome (f), starting in academic year 2007. While our Page 23.1013.9department cannot take credit for this improvement, the results help to validate our confidence inthe FE metric associated with this ABET outcome.ConclusionsThe FE exam is an accepted and vital part of the assessment program
