collegeexperience should transform to be that of an ethical engineer.Data Collection and Data Analysis MethodsA survey was administered to all first-year engineering students enrolled in the University’srequired first-year engineering course (ENGR 0011) in the Fall 2016 semester. The survey wasadministered at the beginning of the semester to capture their K-12 perceptions and experiences.113 of the 526 enrolled students completed the anonymous, online survey, for a response rate of21.5%. The survey consisted of both qualitative and quantitative items.Qualitative ItemsQualitative items included two open-ended questions: 1. “How would you define academic dishonesty?” and 2. “Please share your thoughts and experiences with academic dishonesty.”The second

thisquestion.What are the Implications for Practice /Recommendation?Based on the survey results and participants’ feedback, the following recommendations are madefor enhancing the teaching and learning of standards into the curricula and senior design projects. 1. The standards development organizations can help academia to better incorporate standards education in the curricula by: a. Making standards available online to students and faculty at no cost. b. Conducting standards education training programs for faculty. c. Developing and disseminating standards education materials that can be incorporated into existing courses. Materials may include tutorials, case studies, webinar lectures by industry professionals on

This program has an aircraft gas turbine enginetechnology course that covers a basic understanding of turbofan engines and systems,performance evaluations, operational efficiencies, and fault isolation of engines. One of thecourse goals in the syllabus mentions that "The students will learn to inspect, check, service,troubleshoot, and repair turbine engine airflow, pressure, and temperature measurementsystems." In addition, the learning objectives section explicitly states that the students will learn:"Turbine engine condition monitoring and the interaction of
information technology; Systems principles and practices: Graduates will demonstrate understanding of system types, structures, standards and metrics; Technical communication: Graduates will organize, develop, present and evaluate technical material.All course syllabi have to explicitly identify the course contribution to achieving one or morelearning outcomes. Furthermore, a web based common course syllabus is developed and postedon the intranet to facilitate student access of course content information, as well as to provideconsistency and transparency of all course syllabi.4.

given to students by the expert (professor,instructor, teacher). The focus is on whether the course objectives enumerated in the syllabus arecovered. It was later recognized that it was important to determine whether students were actuallylearning the course material. The shift to concentrate on learning led to the development of methodsof active engagement and experiential learning. Course objectives were reframed into measurablestudent learning outcomes. While the emphasis has shifted from teaching to learning and studentlearning outcomes are specifically written to be measurable, the way outcomes are assessed, and thedetermination of competency continues to be questionable.Norm-based grading approaches are common and are often implemented
relevant subjects for civilengineering students. Using BSE as a base, development of a class reader began.Given the wide range of English language background found in the first-semester English course,the workbook attempted to meet the needs of as many levels of readers as possible. Each chapterbegan with the original text from BSE, appropriate for the 20% of students with the highestEnglish language skills (equivalent to above grade 8). The second passage adapted the originaltext for the lowest level readers (equivalent to primary grades 2-4). A third passage (if needed)adapted the original text for intermediate-level readers (equivalent to grades 5-8).Keying readings to grammar textsAs of summer 2008, there was no common syllabus or course plan

The goal of this co-teaching project is to explore howthe improvement of summarizing strategies enhances students’ motivation and supports theirlearning in physics. College students tend to ill-define or misrepresent conceptual physics.Research also indicates that students loosely organize physics course concepts in contrast to acoherent whole of interconnected elements perceived by their instructors. Since scientific writingrequires its own types of logical organization, clear sentence structure, and precise word choices,this collaborative project provided content-specific summary writing assignments by

Page 11.278.11Curriculum Infusion TechniquesWithin the context of engineering, an untapped, but growing need for biorefinery educationcurrently presents an opportunity to infuse undergraduate curricula with cutting-edge science thatdepends, to a large measure, upon the design and implementation of engineering concepts. Toadequately cover the extensive range of topics relevant to this proposal, the authors recommend afull-semester stand-alone course dedicated to biorefining and bioprocessing. Table 2 presentscore topics for such a course which, in conjunction with the other topics discussed in this paper,could easily be converted into a syllabus. Table 2.

These studies used existing technology tools (which were not originally designed tocollect reflections) to capture student reflections. In a similar way, to promote teamwork and evaluate team members behaviors, varioustechnological tools were used, such as online or web-based tools [35]–[37], CAD-based systemsor digital media [38], [39], robotics [40], [41], simulations or virtual labs [42]–[45], and videogames [46]–[49]. These tools were reported to enhance students’ collaborations and decision-making processes. While prior teamwork studies have used various technology tools to
