This initiative worked to cultivate aculture that prepared students for the “realistic world” of mechanical engineering with a focus on identity.Even though these investigation of mechanical engineering curricula have been wide ranging, and supportpedagogical advancements, they are focused on education. This limits the scope of investigation of the actualactivities a student could be expected to do upon completing their undergraduate program. A look into thepractice of engineering would provide a better understanding of what education is truly preparing studentsfor.The practice of engineering has

An existing highschool summer Makerspace course was adapted to emphasize HCD as a driving force forreal-world engineering educational experiences for students. Makerspace students were enrolledfor 120 hours over six weeks, where they learned about design and prototyping throughworkshops and a creative invention process

There were major changes to the BOK2 as the number
time. While it is not necessary to be intimately familiar with moral theoryto successfully teach ethics, some knowledge is essential. To prepare themselves, faculty canvisit some of the many engineering ethics websites, examine engineering ethics textbooks, attendappropriate lectures, even audit an ethics class. The results can be illuminating. This author, forexample, first directly encountered engineering ethics at a 1988 ASEE annual conference thatfeatured Roger Boisjoly from the Challenger disaster as a main speaker. With that as a startingpoint, she read incessantly; attended an NSF-funded ethics across the curriculum workshopoffered by Michael Davis and Vivian Weil, two distinguished ethics educators at Illinois Instituteof Technology

The post-test data was compared with pre-test data to study whether students haveincreased agreement on the items after they had undergone the course. The respondent of this study is 30 first-year engineering students enrolled in the ITE coursein that semester. According to Wright and Tennant (1996) as cited in Talib et al.

There is limited research to indicate how CSE affects female students and theirdecision to major in engineering, and how CSE predicts the retention of women engineeringstudents in the major. This study sought to further investigate CSE of undergraduate womenengineering students, and how their beliefs about creativity and their lived experiencesinfluenced them to choose and succeed in engineering as a major.

This effecthas been observed specifically within engineering (e.g., (Jones, Epler, Parastou, Bryant, & Paretti,2013; Jones et al., 2010; Matusovich, Streveler, Loshbaugh, Miller, & Olds, 2008; Matusovich,2008)), and so it seems important to examine the ways UVIs might be able to promote studentmotivation here.

Thismay particularly be the case for engineering dynamics, where students are lost in rigid bodydynamics if they have not fully understood the foundational first part of the course, particledynamics. In order to improve student learning, two significant changes were implemented inFall, 2019. Firstly, students were given the ability to write two make up quizzes and one make upmidterm exam. All make up quizzes and exams contained different questions, but were at thesame level of difficulty as the originals.

After another year of learning about power andprivilege and reflecting on our previous workshop, we implemented a revised workshop at the2019 annual NSF RED Consortium Meeting.

Early in the workshop,a participant complimented us as being inclusive by providing a few copies of the handout inlarge print, something Nadia had suggested because she had been involved in a workshop inwhich a participant could not participate because they had forgotten reading glasses.At this workshop, we completely revamped our workshop with
