These threegroups each had a different project, which was beneficial for these students in that they wereable to see their peers working on different tasks in their same discipline area.

billion employees and $15.8 trillion in wages The rapidly changing landscape of the workplace and associated uncertainty has raised a lot of questions about the future of our education system. The impact of different industrial revolutions on education, just like all other parts of society has been profound. Education 1.0 was no education at all. At that time children worked in manual jobs and child labor was the order of the day. Education was not necessary to earn a living, it was merely a luxury for the elites and the rich. Education 2.0 originated from the need to read and write and was developed in the model of Industry 2.0, with emphasis on repeatability, uniformity, efficiency, and mass production. Industry needed lots of people

. Systematic review techniques have recentlygained traction in the field of engineering education. A systematic review performed over aspecific area of practice can consolidate results from many studies into a synthesis of bestpractices.This paper presents the best practices for teaching introductory circuits which were identifiedthrough a systematic review of prior research. Relevant publications were identified andappraised with a set of coding criteria generated by the researchers. The coding results wereexamined and used to write a mixed-methods synthesis of consensus, disagreement, quality, andlimitations amongst studies identified by the systematic literature review. The results of thereview may inform educational techniques employed in post

Differing prompts were given to the students to direct thewritten reflections, using the prompts as follows: • Day 2-3: How has this experience helped me grow? How does this experience serve my education? • Day 4-5: No prompt, write freely. • On day 6: How does this experience impact empathy in engineering?The written reflection data collected was transcribed into the NVivo 11 software.

Education 2.0 originated from the need to read and write and was developed in the model of Industry 2.0, with emphasis on repeatability, uniformity, efficiency, and mass production. Industry needed lots of people to do same type of tasks and the education paradigm evolved to meet that need. Engineering education, which modeled the industrial set-up most closely followed a highly linear path with curriculum being divided into a set of courses with a distinct prerequisite structure where students would have to pass one class to move onto the next. This arrangement, mirrored the assembly line and turned out to be the most efficient

Moreover, budding literature on the effectiveness of online programs pre-pandemic [13] indicated an innovative avenue for research and program development. Thus, theoriginal conceptualization of BOAST in 2019 was as an asynchronous, fully online afterschoolprogram. Instead of more math, the program developers aimed for contextualized math through analgebra-for-engineering, problem-based model.

Certainly the leadership team (CTO and team leads) meets even though it is not required. • Students get taste of being a mid-level manager (the “CTO” role). They are elected to this position by their peers and not allowed to write any code while they are in the role. Even so, they quickly realize that it’s a lot of work. This is much more of a true leadership position than just a team lead. The CTO selects sprint goals and team composition. “I was class CTO” looks good on a resume too. • Progress is faster.

The hands-on in-class exercises havereceived very positive feedback from the students. Often the material seems to make sense whileI’m lecturing and giving examples, but when the students have to write the code themselves, theyoften realize they do not know the material as well as they thought they did.
