Paper ID #11784Infusing a Concurrent Engineering Model into AcademiaProf. John Wadach, Monroe Community College John Wadach is a professor and department chair of the Engineering Science and Physics Department at Monroe Community College in Rochester, NY. He has taught a variety of physics and engineering courses in his 30 year career. Wadach is most inspired by the use of design-build projects in his engineering courses. Infusing a Concurrent Engineering Model into Academia is the title of the NSF TUES grant that he and co-PIs George Fazekas and Paul Brennan were awarded $200,000. Wadach has been the co-organizer of

Since most social contacts tend to be with similar others, groups tend tobe homogenous. The more homogeneous these sets of people are, the more their relationshipstend to be with similar others.14-17 Voluntary organizations in particular, such as the SELECTstudied here, historically are characterized by extreme racial and gender segregation

distinct variations: (a) Start alone, End together; and (b)Start alone, End almost together.Start alone, End togetherStudents who reported studying this way tended to decide in advance that they would begin atask or assignment alone and also would come together toward the end of an assignment or studyperiod and meet to review their work and resolve any disagreement in solutions or approaches toproblems. For example, Becky observed that most of the students in her major (bioengineering)cohort studied this way: In my major, the most often I would say was the second scenario where you do have a study group but everyone has already attempted to try to do the problems, and then we kind of just go over the problems that we don't quite understand
