gained bothcomplex and critical thinking skills associated with engineering design. Because of thesefindings, a first-year course was developed which incorporated many of the teaching methodsused at other universities. The teaching methods outlined by other universities include hands-on projects,1-9 whichhave been proven to increase motivation of first-year students. Just-in-time instruction, whichpresents curriculum material just as it is needed by the students, used in conjunction with teambased learning and hands-on experimentation both in and out of class has also been proven as aneffective learning and teaching strategy.9 Other universities have utilized the consideration ofcontext in design as a method for increasing learning.10

absolutely no experience “under their belt,” are assigned to teachpractice related courses. Often, teaching design-oriented and/ or field-related subjects do require“first-hand” knowledge that instructors could only get by having taken part, or been involved inreal engineering problems. Relying mainly on textbooks and/ or reference material, as the onlysource to teach from, is regarded by many, as an oversimplification or a deviation from reality.This paper sheds light on the pros and cons of opening-up to off-campus practitioners, andargues for engaging properly selected adjunct faculty in the teaching-learning process, inpartnership with “full-time” regular faculty members. The impetus here is three fold. First, thegeneral belief that well

broader impacts of engineering, enhances systems thinking, reflects sustainable engineeringpractices, and helps prepare students to make an impact in the global community. Project-basedlearning approaches that emphasize student learning rather than instructor teaching may be a keyto successful development of “global engineers.” Evaluations of project-based courses showincreases in student motivation, problem-solving ability, communication and teaming skills,knowledge retention, and capacity for self-directed learning. Despite these reported benefits,curriculum-wide implementations of project-based learning are rare, probably partly due to thetraditional emphasis on technical content acquisition in upper-level courses and a lack of clearmethods
