TheBC and PBSC student populations reflect the socioeconomic and ethnic diversity of the SouthFlorida area, with a majority of the enrolled students hailing from minority backgrounds.The articulation program has intended to build a sustainable and growing pipeline of studentsenrolling in Computer Engineering and Computer Science majors. The implementation of theprogram has centered on student success. As we prepared the program, we asked, “What dostudents need to successfully decide/get into college?” In addition to the reducing the worryabout how they would pay for College, we recognized that students need support in terms ofmentoring and advising

The descriptive statistics (Table3) suggest that out-degree behavior is highly volatile (large standard deviations and range),positively skewed and extremely leptokurtic.

preferred if the report was due before the exam, so we all get a chance to really think and analyze the process. The math would be good practice for the exam as well. The demonstration was confusing at first, but I feel like struggling my way through it really helped me understand the concepts. It was helpful to be required to solve these equations and calculate actual values. It was, however, do to inconsistent data, unhelpful to get values that were no reflective of reality. Yes, the hands on nature of directly seeing the effects of the energy balance helped me understand the equation visually and mentally. It helped me in setting up a problem to solve for the friction of the system. I believe I could have

approaches with technical engineering skills. This requires anenhanced curriculum with a focus on student teamwork, a greater consideration of social context,improved communication with diverse constituents, and reflection on an ethical understanding oftheir decisions and solutions. Effective faculty members need to mirror these values and skills intheir instruction and mentoring. Efforts have begun to reimagine the “engineering canon” whichrequires a shift from positioning engineering as a purely technical endeavor to framing it associo-technical. We are developing a new General Engineering program that incorporates thisperspective [30]. In addition, we are developing modules that emphasize the sociotechnicalnature of engineering for traditional

students were coming in with proficiency with the Parallax BOE-Bot.Additionally, the Arduino provided more functionality. Thus, changing to the Arduino allowedfor advances to the projects being conducted in the classes. Also, choosing to use the Arduinorequired the curriculum developers to design a chassis to make the microcontroller mobile for theENGR 120 robot challenge. This chassis construction added more fabrication opportunities forthe students to experience.When the Arduino was implemented in the curriculum in 2011, updates were made to coursematerials to reflect the new microcontroller. However, since that time six years ago, the coursehas not undergone a major update. Viewing curriculum as a living document, faculty atLouisiana Tech

In an effort to generate abaseline for how we can operationalize intuition in the context of engineering education, thepurpose of our current research was to synthesize characterizations and portrayals of intuitivereasoning. We focused on literature from the field of management because intuition isconsidered in the context of complex, strategic decisions, which are reflective of the designdecisions central to engineering. The specific research questions addressed in this study are 1)how does extant management literature characterize intuition?, and 2) how does extantmanagement literature
