A comparison between mathematical modeling and experimental data will enablestudents to explore deviation of theoretical models from the physical system as also how well anassumption may describe a real system behavior.ConclusionsThe SLOs related to the course implementation of the learning modules are related to the twomain areas: (1) introductory notions for thermodynamics and fluid mechanics and (2) energyconversion and energy efficiency, from estimation to direct quantification. Therefore ABETcriteria and b will guide our SLO assessment as main criteria [7]. Also, criterion c will beimportant to assess, due to experimental nature of the activities developed. The

exemplars of macroethics instruction which have the potential be scaled andsustained at locations beyond their existing level of use. To assist in this process, four evaluationcriteria were established: (a) likely to have a high impact on student learning; (b) strongassessment methods; (c) novel or innovative; (d) transferability (to other institutions ordisciplines); these were rated on a scale from 1 (low) to 4 (high). An overall evaluation on levelof interest / excitement for including this teaching example in further research employed a 1(low) to 10 (highest) scale. Raters could also provide open comments. The interviewees wereasked to rate at least six de-identified teaching examples, and 29 sets of ratings were completed.The five members of

These projects provided a uniqueopportunity for Metropolitan State University of Denver (MSU Denver) and University of Pecs(UP) to jointly organize a Refurbishment of Structures course that constituted the start of anacademic collaboration between the two institutions. Although initially the partnership wasbetween the engineering colleges, by now it has expanded university wide. As the partnershipgrows, more academic areas, from Political Science, to Africana Studies, to Management havestarted collaborations, which consist mainly of faculty and student exchanges and jointconferences and program development.

(b) How dowe capture and map teachers’ strategies over the course a design task? and (c) To what extent dothe observed high leverage practices coincide with the nature of the design task?Theoretical frameworkThis study draws upon the literature on ambitious teaching. The idea of ambitious teaching hasbeen developed by researchers in multiple subject matter areas including science, mathematics,and secondary literacy [2], [6], [7]. Ambitious teaching involves structuring opportunities forlearners to reason about key subject matter ideas, participate in the discourse of the discipline,and solve authentic problems [8]. In the science classroom, this means that students learn how

They also realize that the field ofengineering in academia and professional environment tends to be more rigorous than someother professions and requires high level of ethics and responsibility.Description of methodAfter many years of teaching this course, it has been realized that the purpose of offering anintroductory course in engineering could be threefold: a. To attract good students, especially minorities and females, to the field of engineering. b. To provide useful information about engineering for those who have undeclared majors and are
