A Foucault’s Pendulum refers to a heavy massswinging about a relatively high pivot point, where the inertial plane of the pendulum’s swingrotates over time. This rotation of the plane is called precession. Due to the Earth’s rotation, theprecession is clockwise in the northern hemisphere and counterclockwise in the

andsimulation in engineering design education. Along with these lectures, various software modules,tutorials and practical examples were created. The described approach will allow the students tomake design decisions systematically and enable them to solve complicated, multi-attributedecision problems involving tolerances and uncertainty. By including this material into theundergraduate mechanical engineering curriculum, students will gain a new structured way ofapproaching an engineering design problem. Although they will only be introduced to a limitedversion of the decision making process, the students will nonetheless be able to solve anyengineering design decision problem within the scope of undergraduate engineering

’ desire to engage more in an active learning environment was expected;however, their desires to integrate the topics and provide a contextual application wereunexpected. To meet this challenge, a set of three lessons was designed with interactiveexercises and discussions, integrated across the TDLC skills, and scheduled early in the semesterto provide an opportunity for use by the student teams in the course projects. The new TDLClessons were included in the fall 2005 semester curriculum. A full course survey wasadministered following the third lesson. The students were asked four questions related to theTDLC lessons: 1. Were we effective in integrating the four skills: Teamwork, Communication, Diversity, and Leadership across the lessons

This project-basedformat provides incoming freshmen their first hands-on view of the engineering design process.However, most of the design projects have not utilized engineering designs that are more directlyrelated to aerospace engineering until recently1.

value mapping exercises can influenceengineering student’s appreciation of stakeholder diversity and socio-technical systemcomplexity. While our focus here is on a civil and environmental engineering course, our studyhas implications for engineering curriculum in general. More specifically, though, we discusshere an attempt to use stakeholder value mapping exercises to equally represent all threedimensions of sustainable development in a technical engineering course. The study reported here aims to answer the following two research questions related tousing stakeholder value mapping exercises as short-term instruments for integrating macro-ethical issues into technical course. Does stakeholder value mapping: 1) improve student
effectiveness of an engineering curriculum is measured by how well studentscan apply and integrate their technical knowledge to solve real life problems. The currentengineering curriculum has been designed to only to provide the theory, however, it doesn’tprovide the integration of how this knowledge can be applied. The courses that are taken aspreparation for system engineering students include standard mechanical studies such asstatics, dynamics, and structural analysis, but also, computer software and hardwarecourses that study C programming, circuit analysis and electronics. These types ofcollegiate engineering classes that are taken on a general level in all system engineeringdisciplines, are supposed to provide the theory that is needed to build

Since many engineering instructors believe that STEMcontent is purely objective, they have little understanding or training about how to positivelyinfluence classroom climate or how to incorporate the social context of engineering into theircourses. Yet, connecting topics to real-life situations valued by students is an excellent way tocement knowledge to practice [16]. A focus on equity, in particular, can be a motivator forunderrepresented students to pursue and complete STEM degrees [17].At the University of Michigan, we are developing a College-wide approach to teachingEquity-Centered Engineering throughout the undergraduate curriculum.
