Instructor Implements Project-Based Learning 1. Introduction & Objectives In the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Manitoba, Canada, a novice instructor with more than a decade of industry experience in consulting engineering practice re-designed a third-year structural engineering design course around a project- based instructional method. The impetus for changing the course was twofold: his own industry experience that drove his desire to educate students with the engineering knowledge and skills, and foster in them the engineering mind-set to succeed in industry; as well as the fact that the structural course that he was charged with teaching had

In other words, because the positiveoutcomes of a liberal education are often observed and articulated in retrospect, the pedagogicalconstructs and cognitive models that scaffold these later behaviours are often unexplored. Amore comprehensive understanding of how and why these skills develop can be gained byobserving the student behaviours and instructional practices that govern some studentexperiences in the liberal arts.Representing Science on Stage, a theatre elective for engineers at the University of Torontoprovides one space in which these interactions can be observed.

In thiscontext, we seek to answer these questions: 1. To what extent, and in what manner, did the nature of the graduate students’ comments during case analysis change over time? 2. To what extent, and in what manner, did the graduate students’ perceptions of teaching and of themselves as teachers shift over time? 3. How did the graduate participants perform as first-time teachers of record, compared to first-time teachers of record who were not embedded in the secondary education course?Two of our research questions are

At least some of these studies were intended to compare, directly, the invertedmode with the conventional mode of course material delivery. In other words, attempts weremade to keep as much of the course experiences the same, while only inverting the mode ofdelivery. Results have varied somewhat, but many who have tried this mode have discovered: 1. Students like it; 2. Students do not perform significantly better or worse than in conventionally taught courses.In perhaps oversimplified terms, the only reason to invert a course based on the results of thesedirect comparisons appears to be because students like the inverted
