He has been a sessional instructor at the Schulich School of Engineering at the University of Calgary, where he completed his MSc. in engineering researching engineering education. His roots in industry aided him in the development of curriculum for 3 new courses by aligning industry’s desired competencies for new grads with accreditation criteria and facility constraints. The result was applied education: practical learning activities and hands-on labs that prepared students for the real world and accelerated their time-to-competency once on the job.

pad for implementingactive learning techniques in other courses throughout the program.1. IntroductionActive learning is a teaching method to involve students more directly in the learning process byengaging them in two aspects: a) doing things and b) thinking about the things they are doing [1].The central element of active learning is the incorporation of specific activities during class timethat engage students with the course material. This transforms the student from being a passiverecipient of knowledge, with the instructor as the expert, to an active learner who discovers andengages with new knowledge as a result of classroom activities. Research has found that studentswill remember more content if brief activities are introduced to

Thus, though she did notalways follow through with her goals, she was aware that any shortcomings were her owndoing. For example, Mary made lists of the coursework and did projects on the importance ofmotivation and time management but struggled with following through.

fordiscussing moral issues, building ethical reasoning, and making ethical decisions. In this section,the following ethical theories will be briefly reviewed: (a) Consequence-based ethics(Utilitarianism), (b) deontology (duty-based ethics), (c) virtue-based ethics, and (d) ethics of care(care ethics). In consequence-based ethics, “the morality of an action … is determined solely by itsconsequences” (Boss, 2013, p. 23). Deontology, on the other hand, has to do with the belief that“doing what is right for its own sake, is the foundation of morality” (Boss, 2013, p. 27). Virtue isdefined as: “an admirable character trait … in a manner that benefits ourselves and others” andincludes characters such as “compassion, courage, generosity, loyalty, and
. Subjects in the statics dataset often coordinated multiple representations whensketching a new representation, which we call a hybrid translation. For example, we observed astatics subject use both the schematic and shear force diagram to sketch their bending momentdiagram. For reference, students in statics courses are often taught to just use the shear forcediagram to translate to the bending moment diagram. Hybrid translations predominantly occurredin the statics dataset both in percentage of unique codes in the codebook (Figure 1a) and thepercentage of total instances of translation codes (Figure 1b).Figure 1: Percentage of a) total unique translation codes and b) total translation code instancesthat are hybrid translations.DiscussionWhen we
