is overlooked. Engineers have ethical responsibilities to their employers, their employees, theenvironment, and the entire public. Often, the stakes of engineering projects are extremely highbecause people’s lives depend on their success. The activities of engineers can have great impactson the physical world around them and the beings living in it. Engineers do not exist in a bubble—they “exist and operate as a node in a complex network of mutual relationships with many othernodes” [2]. These complex relationships make it necessary to consider the impacts of decisionsand actions on a range of parties. The purpose of this report is to explore new ethical considerations that have arisen in themanufacturing industry due to the

thepredisposition that was brought to the table.” Research has shown that different types of stakeholders canpropel or decelerate change projects in academia [29]; it would be important to integrate what is knownabout change literature to overcome such challenges in the near future.Time limitations were also identified. Significant time was shifted from the redesign process to address thelogistical challenges of executing the course. Such considerations were necessary but should have been ledby the redesign of the priorities rather than the reverse. In this team member’s words: I think moving the conversations about how to revamp the course beyond logistical concerns was the biggest challenge. Of course, those logistics are important

emphasizes the need to 20 provide pilot and hands-on demonstrations to engage and increase the adoption of RWH practices. Misconceptions or lack of knowledge are the leading cause of apprehension in active participation in RWH. 4. Participants indicated they would be willing to pay $50 for an RWH project in their homes. This can present an opportunity to incentivize participation in RWH initiatives. 5. The differing opinions on climate change, such as the belief that humans do not affect climate change, decrease the desire to participate in RWH practices. If

students to industry. Exposing students to industry in early stages of their academictrajectory allows them to apply theoretical knowledge to real engineering projects orproblems [30].Engineering students in our department must engage in three mandatory summer internshipsat three different employment levels. The first internship leads the student to understand howan enterprise works at the operations level. Interns at this level engage in physical work, suchas working in a production line. The second internship allows the student to understand theenterprise from an intermediate job level. Students are assigned ‘desk jobs’ and work withessential data. The third internship is at the professional level and allows students toexperience working and
object selection further.Unlike the discrete selector, the volumetric selector allows users to select multiple objectssimultaneously, even if other objects occlude some objects. When activated, the volumetricselector projects a cone from the user’s hand, visually representing the selection zone. A spherecast from the user’s hand collides with any objects within the cone’s base diameter (Figure 6).Next, we filter the objects by calculating the object’s angle from the user’s hand using the 𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑒 ⋅𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑜𝑏𝑗𝑒𝑐𝑡following formula: 𝜃 = cos −1 (|𝑝𝑜𝑠 ) 𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑒 ||𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑜𝑏𝑗𝑒𝑐𝑡 | Figure 6.

In a final round they do a design-for-manufacturing exercise to create a new, more buildable design, and use pull, kitting, andkanban tools to create a lean manufacturing system that can typically make five times as manyairplanes as the start state with basically the same resources.The product development simulation involves 7 students taking the roles of project management,design, analysis, systems engineering and verification and testing. They process several differentkinds of paper jobs that have different paths through the system. They perform abstract tasks,attaching labeling dots to the paper “jobs,” with time controlled by sand timers and success orfailure determined by dice. Failure can create rework

development of effective and engaging laboratory-based learning experiences. Inconclusion, hands-on, human-remote, and remote laboratories each have their own advantagesand limitations, and the choice of laboratory setup will depend on the specific learning goals,resources, and constraints of each educational program.Future studies should expand the analysis to virtual and ultra-concurrent labs so that all fivedifferent types can be accurately compared using the same or similar experimental setups.Another current trend in education stems from the abilities of Augmented Reality devices, whichenable a combination of virtual and hands-on laboratories. By using their own hands to interactwith the projected environment, users can better identify with the
engineering education was not nationally recognized nor supported until the publication ofNGSS [22]. With renewed national investment into STEM education, it appears EEJ publicationshave focused on student conceptions and learning about engineering. On the other hand, OEJpublications focus on ways in which engineering can be utilized to better support learning in theclassroom. One way is through teacher professional development around engineering contentknowledge and training in new engineering-infused curricula (e.g. Engineering is Elementary,Project Lead the Way).

This paper emerges from a larger qualitative and design-based study, which exploredyouths’ experiences within a community engineering program and used this data to iterate theprogram. The purpose of the larger project was to understand better how youth–whose socialidentities are marginalized in engineering–begin to engage in engineering practices and narratetheir experiences in engineering programs.

By incorporating these learning objectives acrossall of the general education courses over the students academic career, students might be able tobetter integrate their learning across courses, including across disciplines.

Surveying engineering has a significant role in construction and highway projects,mapping and boundary determination, building information management, land informationmanagement, monitoring engineering structures, and more. Surveying makes use of manyrevolutionary technologies including Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), laserscanning, photogrammetry, and mapping using small unmanned aerial systems (sUASs).However, the surveying profession suffers from low public profile, making it difficult to attractstudents in surveying / geomatics programs, with many surveying programs experiencing lowenrollment. This issue has led to significant problems in the profession such as increasing theaverage age of surveyors, with unofficial

While more money is spent on preparing students foruniversity STEM programs, the number of engineering graduates continues to decrease, andattrition rates for engineering undergraduates remains high [13]. Educators are continually striving for better, more effective and efficient ways to teachtheir students. In the past few decades, several research projects have emerged which compareand contrast several different techniques, methodologies, and resources. In addition to this, thenumber of resources and teaching philosophies have increased exponentially. Some innovationshave included clickers, online homework, interactive textbooks, and adaptive software. As aresult, many studies

The major aim ofthis project is to increase the understanding of the stress and coping mechanism networks ofgraduate students, as well as how these two different networks interact. The results will facilitatethe development of better support programs for graduate students.In this paper, we seek to answer the following research questions: (1) What are the primarystressors and coping mechanisms of current graduate students, and (2) What are the
