Tilted Planes and Curvature in Three-Dimensional Space: Explorations of Partial Derivatives By Andrew Grossfield, Ph. D., P. E.AbstractMany engineering students encounter and algebraically manipulate partial derivatives in theirfluids, thermodynamics or electromagnetic wave theory courses. However it is possible thatunless these students were properly introduced to these symbols, they may lack the insight thatcould be obtained from a geometric or visual approach to the equations that contain thesesymbols.We accept the approach that just as the direction of a curve at a point in two-dimensional space isdescribed by the slope of the

American c Society for Engineering Education, 2021Improving Integrated STEM Education: The Design and Development of a K- 12 STEM Observation Protocol (STEM-OP) (RTP)IntroductionThe collective education of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics has beencommonly referred to as STEM education. For K-12 education in the United States, the use ofthe phrase “STEM education” has repeatedly been used in reference to a more integratedcurricular and pedagogical approach, wherein the STEM disciplines are interconnected with oneanother and contextualized by real-world problems [1] – [3]. This shift from teaching the STEMdisciplines in
ModulesAbstractIn modern computing and engineering programs, new course materials need to be addedregularly in a flexible manner. The concept of course modules has been suggested as oneapproach to doing this; a course module, which is a self-contained unit of curriculumsuch as a lab or teaching component, can be included into existing courses withoutrequiring substantial course or program modifications. In this paper, the authors describetheir experiences in incorporating new curricula into computer science and engineeringcurricula at their three institutions, including Rochester Institute of Technology, HowardUniversity, and SUNY at Oswego. The relatively new paradigm of Service-OrientedProgramming (SOP) was introduced into their programs using course

Most statesrequire at least four years of experiences after completion of an EAC-ABET accreditedengineering degree. However, the education requirement is far from uniform. Many state lawsinclude pathways to licensure for applicants with a non-accredited engineering degree, anengineering technology degree, a non-engineering bachelor’s degree, and no postsecondarydegree. In the following study, state engineering laws and rules were reviewed to determine theeducation, experience, and examination pathways to professional engineering licensure.
