synchronous onlineinteraction would be higher.Conclusions This study seeks to develop an understanding of the quantity, type, and drivers ofsynchronous online student interaction in a Systems Engineering context. The results of thiswork demonstrate that the synchronous online mode of learning is a popular means of engagingwith distance learning technology. When prompted through some explicit instructor actions anda culture of inclusivity (regarding prompting, wait time, scheduled presentations), thesynchronous online students interact often and with high-quality. This paper demonstrates how adetailed and quantitative assessment may be conducted to inform the course structure andinstructor training of a Systems Engineering education program

workforce as educated engineers and scientists capable of continuing the growth of theindustry. As technologies advance, the manufacturing and scientific processes involved canbecome more difficult, and it can be hard to develop quick, simple demonstrations for student labclasses.One example of this is in the field of electrostatic propulsion. In electrostatic propulsion, a lowmass flow rate of propellant is accelerated to high exhaust velocities using electrostatic fields.Gridded ion thrusters and Hall thrusters are the two most common electrostatic propulsiondevices, but these can be difficult to build and operate in standard workshops, particularly whenconcerning grids for ion thrusters and the ceramic annular channel in Hall thrusters.

During myundergrad, I took part in the Engineering and Society program at McMaster University, andduring my current graduate work, I am a part of the Centre for Technology and SocialDevelopment at the University of Toronto. Each program attempts to teach students how to thinkmore broadly, balancing breadth and depth in order to develop a new approach to engineeringproblems. The Engineering and Society program uses a technique called “inquiry” throughoutthe curriculum and encourages engineering students to focus on a discipline outside ofengineering

The two are interconnected and both embed the idea of the need to know what worksand why and how practices can be continuously improved. While the obvious focus might be inmeasuring the implementation of new practices and systems, there is an underlying expectationthat fundamental and applied research will guide these reforms.

Using financialcalculators allows students to focus on analyzing the problem rather than completing tediouscalculations.Clickers encourage students to be more engaged in class and allow instructors to efficientlyobtain feedback from the class at regular intervals. Rather than relying on experience andintuition to judge how well students are grasping the concepts, instructors can quickly determineif a sufficient majority of the class is ready to proceed or whether another example problem isneeded. This is a powerful tool for engineering economy where complex concepts can stymiestudents that normally excel in quantitative analysis.Using the two technologies together is
