Based on their hands-onexperience with Design of Experiments, SolidWorks and 3D printing and the comments receivedby the program participants it was found that: (a) All the students demonstrated basic level ofunderstanding (through their assigned project) on how to use basic engineering skills to tackle areal world problem based on the tools available to their disposal; (b) Educational environmentprovided to them in university setting motivated 45% of the participants with a positive impacton their career choices towards STEM.ACKNOWLEDGEMENTSThe authors of this paper would like to thank the NSF (Grant No: NSF DUE-TUES-1246050)and the

Today, the JiTT strategy is widely used in academia and inmany cases it is web-based, where "active learner assignments and enrichment materials aredelivered to the students over the web" [23, 24, 25]. New interactive technologies, used togetherwith the JiTT approach have the potential to increase student's knowledge because (a) thelearners are actively engaged, (b) the material is delivered at the point in time that studentsneed the knowledge, and (c) they receive prompt feedback about their learning, such that theyare able to

Among these barriers, one area most in need of additionalresearch is that concerning student resistance. Although student resistance can be a significantdiscouragement to faculty attempting new teaching practices, it is a natural response to newteaching methods not typically used in the classroom. Weimer20 states that student resistance toactive learning methods is often a result of the additional effort needed on behalf of the student,causing anxiety about their ability to succeed within this new classroom environment.
