experiences of the engineering Ph.D.students, be it in a shared or isolated workspace, is influenced by both the equipment aspect andthe research group size aspect.Finally, some engineering Ph.D. students have little access to or need for equipment in theirresearch, beyond standard computers and information technology. This can be due to the size ofthe research group, where small research groups tend to work with little equipment initially [26],or due to the type of work, such as educational research, which usually has little need forsophisticated test equipment [49].4.5 A Conceptual Framework for the Engineering Ph.D. Research ExperienceA concept map (Figure 1) was synthesized to show how the social, historical, cultural, andmaterial contexts might

Madison and Sam pre/post ECA PSD Qualitative ComparisonIn the pre session, Sam and Madison spend a significant amount of time working to define theproblem. Eventually, they progress their discussion to elements of model development, but theyfocus modeling on data acquisition aspects. Specifically, they decide (unvalidated) that they willbuild a platform to test and determine if the concept is feasible; Madison: “Well so from this pointthen I think that we should build one platform.

For each ALM, the lecture was a standalone lecture with a PowerPoint presentation andan instructor guided group discussion. The sustainability ALM was considered by the instructoreasier to implement as the material cost and environmental impact are already covered in theregular course content. Resilience concepts were covered by relating mitigation methods for civilinfrastructure during a disaster event. Methods of assessment included the use of concept maps.Students were given concept maps as a take home activity, and offered extra credit uponcompletion of the activity.CE 360 is a spring only class, and

Most traditional teaching ofStatics has involved a homework assignment where the students solve problems similar to thosefrom lecture. The homework problems serve to reinforce the new concepts and to develop thestudents’ ability to solve math and physics based problems. These homework assignments havealso typically been graded student assessments.The challenge with using these homework problem sets for student
