He said “If youbelieve what the people are telling you, it will crush you.” Keep fighting. Everyone has had apunch in the face. Don’t give up. Steve noted that in an ever changing world, it is important to bea lifelong learner and to always be ethical. Wayne noted that several of the people he grew upwith got engineering degrees, got their doctorate, and returned to Appalachia. These people serveas examples of what Appalachian people can achieve. Wayne echoed Gage’s sentiment thatAppalachian engineering students can’t go in half-heartedly. They must give 100%.Limitations and Future Work This study was conducted as a

fundamental knowledge is no longer enough to properly prepare students forthe start of their careers. This leads us to the question: how can industry and academia worktogether to prepare the next generation of students?Student Engagement in Higher EducationStudent engagement is a term often mentioned in education to ensure students are getting themost out of their learning experiences. It is linked to things like improved critical thinking,practical competence, skill transferability, improved cognitive development, increasedpersistence, and moral and ethical development within students [8].But what does it really mean?The National Survey for Student Engagement (NSSE) highlights two aspects of studentengagement in their definition: the amount of time
complexity of navigating racialidentity and how societal perceptions can impact individuals both positively and negatively.Our study of environmental nonprofit websites in Buffalo seeks to explore how the intricatelayers of racial and ethnic identification manifest within organizations’ public representations ofthemselves. Utilizing the Fitzpatrick skin type scale in this [25] study, we classified individualsas people of color (darker than olive) or not. However, we recognize individuals may bemiscategorized due to the inability to self-identify as people of color in our study. Self-identification is the most accurate and ethical method of racial and ethnic classification [24]. Asan equity-focused and racially diverse research team committed to

In additionthe ARCE students are immediately engaged on the project since they need to understand thebuildings existing strengths and weaknesses.Grading - With multiple faculty and students with different department grading cultures, thecourse requires the creation of a transparent and equitable grading system. Individual professorswith varied backgrounds have differing expectations and needs within the course. Students bringdiverse capabilities and work ethics to the course. Unlike other courses that utilize teams, in thiscourse each student brings a unique expertise to the team. If a single member is not performing,it is not likely that the rest of the team will not be able to “cover” for that member. A simple toadminister yet fair grading

This study showed instructors considered the software enhanced studentengagement and learning, while students described OASIS as easy to use and helpful inimproving skills and understanding. Given this positive evidence, it was decided to providehigh-school students with their own version of OASIS (School OASIS), the dual aims beingto improve the physics skills of incoming engineering students and to promote theUniversity‟s engineering courses. Additionally, since appropriate ethical requirements havebeen met, the wealth of data collected by School OASIS can be used in judging student-intake quality and for educational

It may be done throughout the project or before, during, and aftercompletion of project. It may be conducted in the classroom, at the worksite or at the finalcelebration or presentation. It may involve students, teachers, sponsoring agencies, and recipientsof project deliverables. Reflection assists in connecting and crystallizing real world servicelearning experiences.Reflection John Dewey3, the early 20th century progressive educator, published, supported andpromoted reflection in education and ethics as a perpetual process by

anonymity encouragesincreased participation by quieter, less confident students. The entire class can be polled quicklyso the lecturer knows whether to review the material again or continue on. Students canparticipate easily without risk of being embarrassed in front of their peers by a wrong answer.This is particularly true for students that may be less willing to speak publicly because English isa second language. The anonymity of responses also encourages more candid answers toquestions involving ethical quandaries. Regularly polling the class about problems encouragesstudents to remain engaged. If students see that a significant portion of the class reached thesame wrong conclusion about a particular question it may reassure them that they are

Two of these assignments are discussed inthis paper: the design of a force transducer for medical rehabilitation, discussed in detail, and thedesign of an accelerometer based impact measurement system for a package delivery company.Load Cell Transducer MEA ExerciseIn this MEA, teams of two or three students are assigned to work as engineering consultants forthe owner of a fictitious company, “Rehab-o-Rama”, which manufactures physical rehabilitationequipment.

Professional Development – Student development in ethics, etiquette, interviewing, presentations, “dress for success”, and interpersonal skills is an integral part of the EPD sequence. Graduates of the program frequently refer to the positive impact the professional development activities had on their experiences as interns and ultimately in the careers. Citizen Development – Students learn that engineers are servants to society through presentations, reading activities, and a minimum of 70 of hours of community service that they complete while at Itasca. Examples of the activities include road-side clean- ups, recreational trail maintenance, local
communicateeffectively‖[11].What engineers need to experience and know, in addition to ―hard‖ knowledge, is ―process-oriented skills and awareness-oriented skills‖ [1]. Process-oriented skills include―communication, teamwork, and the ability to recognize and resolve ethical dilemmas‖ [1].These skills are powerful when combined with awareness skills involving ―understanding theimpact of global and social factors, knowledge of contemporary issues, and the ability to dolifelong learning‖ [1]. But what are the most effective ways of incorporating process andawareness-oriented practices into engineering curricula already crowded with necessary science,math, and disciplinary courses? How can engineering schools, which must ensure that theirstudents graduate with

Dealing with hang-ups can be assimple as taking a break from the problem for a while. How can you avoid losing your gumption about publishing a paper, in a collaborativeenvironment like a large research group? Here are some points to watch out for. 1. Agree on authorship – Who will be an author? a) Agree on roles in writing, and define who will prepare materials such as figures and tables, and who will write the different text sections. Be clear on the roles of each author in the paper, and ensure that the ethical expectation that each author must make a substantial

Levels 1-3 are commonly referred to lower-level skills andLevels 4-6 are considered to be higher level skills. It is through the use of games that instructioninto the higher levels is possible as they present the students with continuous change, reflectionon decision making, strategy, and other key components of the higher-levels.

So it became imperative to be prepared for this neweducational community, where the teachers are the guiders in the new path that is now theaccomplishment of the formation of engineers.5. The
; however, theconventional approach is to include only the minimum needed. The engineering habits of mindemphasize skills such as systems thinking, creativity, optimism, collaboration, communicationand ethical considerations. These principles are covered, with different depth levels, by eachengineering program studied. The intent of the ICE-HS framework is to provide schools theflexibility they need to select the resources that best fit their objectives while maintainingcommitment to the general principles.The proposed ICE-HS framework includes courses similar to other programs in engineering ingrades 9-12, introducing the threads of design and technology. In contrast to the conventional

One more student who chose Academic Search Premier explained why: “This, for mytopic, worked best. Web of Science is also a great choice and was helpful, but I needed lesstechnical articles. I was looking more for the ethical and social base for my argument, so thebroader view in EBSCO gave me good results.” Although this student chose a general rather thana specialized database for robotics research, she had a clear reason for doing so.
