This paperreviews our work to date, summarizes what we are learning about the systems required for sustained reform,and outlines our direction for the next step of work. We will also discuss the impact of this project on ourdepartment and some of the interesting dimensions of what is required to pull off reform across the curriculum.Our Initial Vision We have identified a problem with engineering education.

This paper presents a virtual learning environment (VLE) project that iscurrently being developed at the University of Louisville. The VLE project has three major components: 1 )multimedia interactive course on the World Wide Web (WWW),2) “studyware” package, and 3) student database. Introduction The evolution of new computer, telecommunication, and multimedia technologies has provided thetools to explore new methods for teaching. However, the development of new technology often out pacesour ability to adopt the new technology. We need to access the educational potential of the new

In a final project, students worked in teams toaddress specific design issues surrounding a number of areas including nanomedicine andbiosensors. The course was offered twice with limited enrollments in fall 2007 (12 students) and2008 (11 students). A number of changes were made in response to student comments after thefirst offering and this paper will discuss the course structure during the second offering.Course StructureThe course combined lectures, student-led presentations on journal articles, “Nanolab” modulesand their write-ups or reports, and a major team project that lead to final presentations andreports.

Specifically, ourresearch seeks to explore the role that computational and analytical abilities play in innovation inthe context of engineering design education. We apply the learning framework of adaptiveexpertise to focus our work and guide the research. Using the adaptive expertise framework,with a specific focus on computational/analytical knowledge, we document the type of evidencestudents do (or do not) use when selecting possible design alternatives, appropriate models ormethods of analysis, and when interpreting the results to justify their decisions.We analyzed student design project reports from different academic years, and from differentengineering disciplines.
