Some typical student writing projects are: (a) submit the day's lecture notes, (b) write apersonal statement of values, (c) write a personal statement of convictions regarding theenvironment, or (d) write a summary of a recent course-related article that appears in a magazinesuch as Scientific American or National Geographic. Students are assigned readings in textbooks by Barbour(1993), Volti (2005), and Brown(2001). They are encouraged, optionally, to develop a reading journal that contains theirpersonal notes and outlines of all the textbook readings. It follows their twice-weekly readingassignments, reporting

is for a team of two students to design and build abalsa wood truss bridge which will span 36 inches and hold a 24 pound load at midspan. Thespan length, amount of the load, and location of the load vary each semester. The only materialused is balsa wood and glue. The lightest bridge to hold the 24 pound load is the winner. Thecomplete project rules can be found in Appendix A.Each student is required to first determine the member forces in their chosen truss configurationusing the Method of Joints and/or the Method of Sections. The students then determine thecross-section size required for each truss member, using a table of balsa wood member capacitiesprovided by the instructor (see Appendix B for an abbreviated version of this table

For example, it was determined that the competency “DemonstrateEnvironmental Sampling Procedures” could be introduced at the twelfth grade level, attained atthe associate degree level and reinforced at the bachelors degree level. This leveling process wascompleted for each competency. A typical training unit, with competencies, competency buildersand grade levels, is shown in Appendix B. Upon completion of the leveling process, both theeducators and industry teams finalized the competencies, developed course objectives andprepared curriculum pathways.Curriculum Development: The curriculum was designed to provide a full range of courses thatwould prepare students for entry

Full Paper: A Systems Engineering Approach to Conceptual Design in a 1st-Year Engineering Program1st-year engineering students engage in three projects over the course of the fall and springsemesters. In the fall semester students build, test, and present at an exposition an Arduino-basedgame. While students are provided the design for the game, they are strongly encouraged tomake creative modifications. Following this, students complete a reverse engineering activity ona simple household appliance or medical device. The result is a CAD model of the device and adetailed report, typically of about 40 – 50 pages. Students work in teams of three or four on bothprojects.In the spring semester work consists of a
