The challenges facedduring the “live” decision-making of the role play stands in stark contrast to the “hindsight is20/20” perspective that seems to prevail when the students read the Challenger case study,though many of the influencing factors (e.g., economic, political, ambiguous data) are similar.Students who are not playing a role are assigned one of four types of observer roles (informative,normative, responsibility, and

[7]. TheCommunity of Inquiry Framework [11] uses social constructivism to outline three importantcomponents within online courses that contribute to student development and learning: socialpresence, cognitive presence, and teaching presence. Social presence can be defined by theability for group members to project themselves socially and emotionally, as “real” people (i.e.,their full personality) [11]. Cognitive presence is the act of constructing meaning throughsustained communication and is often developed through significant social presence [11]. Thethird component is teaching presence, which is how instructors design educational experiences tofacilitate social and cognitive presence [11]. These theories framed our methods and

The objective of the first-year engineering curriculum is to provide an opportunity for students to explore engineering disciplines so that students can make informed decisions about their careers. So, these two courses achieve the goal of training these students for their second year of the degree program.5. Role of Administration: It was noted earlier that the regional campuses get limited funding to run the campus businesses. However, there is a process of submitting a budget to the central campus. Engineering coordinators submit the budget each year to the fiscal office. The purchases made for the lab supplies and equipment have to go through the university
