positionality from a first-person viewpoint, enabling our voices to shine more clearly.Author 1’s Positionality:I come to this work from a place of personal interest. I have always been interested in learning,teaching, and mentoring. I had the opportunity to engage with this process of becoming aprofessor in a much more structured, scaffolded, and safely strategic environment than iscommon for engineering faculty. I have a master's in chemical engineering; thus, I feel veryconfident in my engineering identity, ability to comprehend and communicate the material, andmy familiarity with both the difficulty of the learning process and the struggles of being a studentthrough an engineering program. I was co-teaching with my master’s advisor, who also
objectives that can be phrased as‘by the end of this course; students will be able to ….’ This will help simplify decisions for theentire semester, from what activities to do during class and what homework to assign to whatkind of questions you put on your assessments, leading to a much more impactful experience foryour students [12].Provide this list of objectives in an easily accessible place for your students (such as on thecourse management system). Clearly convey to your students at the start of the course andthroughout the semester that these objectives are driving all your course decisions. Highlight atthe start of each unit, each week, or even each class which objective(s) are to be supported by theactivities and homework problems. And

UnitedStates was becoming aware of the need for more NDM technologies. Further, these samestakeholders recognized that more technology would only come through increased interest andcompetence in the topic(s), recognition of its importance in a public and private capacity, and as aresult of the two, increased development of exploratory engineering. Serabian’s [7] chief wonderwas thus what role engineering education would play in advancing NDM technologies.Specifically, they asked, would engineering education practice focus on whether students coulduse the relevant technologies, rather than leave that to technicians, or would the focus be onteaching students theory that would allow them to develop new technologies? At a time in whichfunding was an issue
groups such as women and racial/ethnic minorities.Of course, the professional field of engineering provides its own formal definitions, including viaaccreditation standards for higher education, including the U.S.’s Accreditation Board forEngineering and Technology [14]. Unsurprisingly, the first student outcome for ABETaccredited engineering programs is “an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complexengineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics (p. 5).[14] However, other standards emphasize the importance of social awareness and interpersonalcommunication to the modern practice of engineering.

becomes the only synchronously available instructionalcoach for small groups. Prior work [25]–[27] indicates that TAs can serve as effective co-instructors, particularly in facilitating team-based activities; however, TAs do require oversightand coaching in order to be effective in their role. In a large-enrollment course setting, the sheernumber of TAs required to support course activities necessitates robust professional developmentand a clear plan for TA management by course instructor(s) [29], [30].In this paper, we present strategies for offering large-enrollment FYE courses in an entirelyonline setting; and we critically examine the effectiveness of this approach by comparing studentoutcomes between FTF and online course formats.

the sorting task. Each sorter was presented with all of the final ideason a set of numbered cards with one idea per card. They then sorted the cards into groups ofsimilar ideas and created a descriptive name for each group. Finally, they recorded their groupname and the ideas (numbered cards) were placed in that group. Each idea was only sorted intoone group. Once the ideas were sorted by the stakeholders, this raw data was structured intomatrices of 0’s and 1’s using the open source programing language R [31]. This step generatedindividual and total matrices, which served as an input for the representation step. The sortingstep was an onsite activity and was completed in two hours, with each stakeholder sorting theideas individually. Prior
research directionsare proposed.Keywords: curriculum, design, design thinking, discoursesIntroductionCurriculum is defined as a plan which is intended to provide the learning experiences to individualsin an educational setting [1]. It is the most important part of an education system irrespective of thetype of education. Although it is critical, curriculum is often criticized for not providing all therequired learning experiences as it is intended to. Curriculum development is a process used todevelop and implement the curriculum plan and evaluating it against the set standards [2].Curriculum planning deals with making choices at different stages in the development process, andplanning choices are strongly influenced by the value system(s) of the

, ROM, and I/O. The initial experiment has the students use theHC11’s Buffalo Bug software to manipulate port outputs. The traffic light LEDs are connectedto the output ports of the microprocessors. Thus, the students directly control the lights bymodifying the contents of the memory locations associated with the output ports. This helps thestudents see the connection between software and what happens in hardware. Then the lectureexplains how programs can be written for the microprocessor and stored in on-chip RAM. Theidea of a simple flow chart is introduced to alternate green and red lights between N/S and E/W.The second experiment has the students implement the flowchart in C code, compile the code,and download it to the microprocessor.

“extension[s] of man”: the hammer is an extension of the hand, eyeglasses anextension of the eyes, the wheel an extension of the foot.14 Thus media are not separate from theircreators but intimately intertwined. And if media/technologies are physical extensions of people,it follows that they may also embody other human characteristics, such as ethics and values.Furthermore, the user has only limited choice for using a particular technological artifact, as eachhas a built-in bias. According to social critic Neil Postman, “It has within its physical form apredisposition toward being used in certain ways and not others.”15 Each medium“massages”—and hence changes—the information that flows through it.2 “The medium,”McLuhan famously declared, “is the
(Lichtenstein & Plowman, 2009;Sullivan & Pines, 2016). It is a shared discipline of collective action. As participants follow thesesimple rules, new interactions take place and new outcomes emerge. Using simple, but not easyquestions, participants develop both a shared outcome and a project to move toward theiroutcome. The project represents a short-term experiment. Participants learn whether they canmove toward their shared outcome through the collective action they design. The process isiterative: as they learn, they move forward to complete some projects, adjust others and keepgoing, and take on new projects to reach their identified strategic outcome(s).

theworkforce [6]. There are many explanations of individual excellence and entrepreneurialmindset [7,8, 9] and multiple studies about engineering students [10,11,12] with an emphasison a high need for achievement and potential for break-through innovation [13]. Since the late1990’s engineers and designers have been exploring moods and feelings and their connectionto better solutions [14]. And while research links entrepreneurial status to personality theory[15] and personality to leadership [16], few studies focus on the impact of emotion oninnovative success. This paper aims to begin filling that gap with a preliminary experiment toshow how students experience a story of innovation. The experiment is inspired by Radcliffe President Mattina
