cutbacks.However, knowledge of the fundamental concepts remains critical to engineering education. Theexisting paradigm for teaching engineering science is three credit hour blocks of material. Thisthree-unit course depth may not be necessary, but a basic comprehension of the material is vital.Over the past four years, eight faculty members in the College of Engineering and Mines(COEM) at the University of Arizona have created a web-based course, ENGR 211. The courseconsists of eight 1-credit hour modules on engineering science topics and spans the areastraditionally covered by the Fundamentals of Engineering professional exam (statics, thermo,dynamics, fluids, mechanics, materials, electric circuits, and economics).

As part of the on-going implementation of these activities at Virginia Tech, we have recently introduced aseries of design/build projects for freshman student teams that are centered on astandardized kit of tools and materials dubbed the “MacGyver box”. This program hasbeen piloted with approximately 300 students during the fall semester of 2001 and is tobe fully implemented into the Virginia Tech freshman engineering class by fall of 2002.This initiative has been well received by students, and offers an engaging and instructivemethod to introduce students to design, engineering economy, and the dynamics ofteamwork.Teams of four students are issued a MacGyver box, briefly introduced to the designprocess, and assigned

Often, students work inteams, with each member of the team reviewing the other members. Or, students or teams maychoose from a list of topics to work on. In this case, it is helpful to assign students to reviewothers who have chosen the same topic. To encourage students to provide adequate feedback totheir reviewees, several approaches can be taken. Students can be denied credit for theassignment unless they do the required reviews. Or, they can be prevented from seeing feedbackon their work until they provide feedback to others.

Most institutions track this data at the university level,meaning that university administrators are easily able to identify students who switch majorsfrom engineering to other areas or identify students who leave the university completely, butthere is minimal follow-up data provided at the college and department level.Our research examines the issue of first-semester attrition from the following perspectives: (1)the individual differences perspective: can data from a 10-minute psychological learning-stylesurvey distributed on the first day of class be used as a means of early-identification of first-semester engineering students who may not continue in engineering
