The courses are designed to address common issuesand applications related to computer technology. The topics covered in the courses includemultimedia processes and products, the Internet, automatic data capture technology, andnetworking.IntroductionA Master of Science in Technology (MST) program corresponding with the university’s missionat Northern Kentucky University (NKU) was developed three years ago.

Students also tend to focus on thesurface features instead of the underlying scientific principles.In chemical engineering, students are introduced to block flow diagrams (BFDs), a new type ofpictorial representation of a chemical process, early in the curriculum. For example, in thesophomore-level material and energy balances, often an initial exercise is to convert a wordproblem into a simple block flow diagram. The block flow diagram consists of a series of blocksrepresenting different equipment or unit operations that are connected by input and outputstreams. Important information such as operating temperatures, pressures, and flow rates areincluded in the diagram. However, the diagram does not include any details of

We are interested in how students mayfeel responsibility to HCD throughout project and design process such that they also learn how tointeract and work for broader social responsibilities. Thus, we expand on CSR by introducingTSR in embedded teams constituted within engineering programs and institutions of highereducation.In the context of teamsThe study of teams, namely those embedded in organizations, continues to receive scholarlyattention from an organizational communication perspective.

Accordingly, Savery [16] defines “PBL as an instructional learner-centered approach that empowers learners to conduct research, integrate theory and practice,and apply knowledge and skills to develop a viable solution to a defined problem. Critical tothe success of the approach is the selection of ill-structured problems (often interdisciplinary)and a tutor who guides the learning process and conducts a through debriefing at theconclusion of the learning experience”.Evolution of the courseAt Texas State University, a course in Concrete Problems

Forexample, in large, minimal-credit orientation courses for first-year students, we have designedseveral short writing assignments. When introducing these assignments to the students,instructors talk about how writing is integral to their discipline and can serve a wide range ofpurposes. Most of these assignments are reflective, prompting students to capture their thoughtsabout a reading or presentation. Other assignments are more structured and oriented todeveloping professional communication practices, such as drafting an email to a professor askingfor advice after missing class

To enhance the educational outcomes of engineering students’ studyabroad experiences, we developed a certificate program that couples an abroad experience withadditional coursework in global topics and a reflection assignment. The certificate program isbased on a similar program at Northern Arizona University, and is otherwise rare in our peerschools.

Finally, conservation ofcharge provides the basis for an introduction to electrical circuits.

ConclusionsIncorporating active learning techniques into the engineering curriculum increases the level ofstudent learning and comprehension, as outlined in several learning theories. Active learningmethods are especially critical in the development of cognitive skills used in synthesizingsolutions to open-ended design problems. Development of such skills should not begin at the endof a student’s engineering curriculum (in a senior capstone design course, for example); rather,such skills must be developed throughout the curriculum.
