information for active classroom design.IntroductionActive learning, and spaces purpose-built for active learning pedagogies, are becomingincreasingly prevalent in STEM fields, and engineering in particular. One method to learn moreabout the utilization of active learning pedagogies is to observe teaching and learning in real timeusing a protocol that describes the interaction between pedagogy, space, and technology [1]. Theuse of observation to provide information on teaching practices is a well documented concept[2], [3], [4]. Teaching and Learning Centers have a long history of offering classroomobservations and these are frequently used to provide formative and summative feedback toinstructors, teaching teams, and academic leaders [4].

If it is explained tothem that higher to lower potentials needed for flow to occur actually expresses the second lawof thermodynamics in another, more general, way, then a very abstruse concept can be mademore real.The analogy can be extended to other physical systems including mechanics (force, velocity)electricity (voltage, electric current), magnetics (magnetomotive force, magnetic flux), andothers not normally taught to undergraduate engineering students as transport processes.The effort and flow variable analog can extend much farther into such disparate areas as thespread of disease, traffic flow, technology transfer, psychological

This interaction takes place through the already established mechanisms of the interdisciplinary Center for Automotive Research, and through co-operative and consortium-based research.3. Graduate education: OSU’s role in supplying engineers to the auto industry has been a major one in recent years, with one out of every five MS and Ph.D. graduates being hired by automotive OEMs and suppliers. A final, and major objective of this proposal is to create a steady supply of highly educated graduates at the MS and Ph.D. level with expertise in all of the technologies that are critical to the successful commercial implementation of HEV drives.II.

The nature of the Statics course is primarily a lectureproblem-solving course and it builds on previous knowledge of physics and math. The HighwayDesign is a junior level course. Only Civil Engineering Technology (CET) students take theHighway Design course and it is preceded by two-sophomore level courses in surveying. TheHighway course is design and problem solving in nature. It develops students ability to usemathematical formulas, specifications and guidelines by design agencies, assumptions andfinally common sense to recommend solutions for a given highway problem.
