inorganicmaterials as altering the band gap energy of these materials through chemical means is ratherchallenging. Therefore, significant effort has been placed in designing, synthesizing, andimplementing quantum dot semiconductors in photovoltaic applications. This has led to acombination of computational design investigations by physicists, advanced synthetic proceduresby chemists, and fabrication and testing of quantum dot solar cells by engineers. As such,significant progress has been made with respect to achieving relatively high power conversionefficiency values at the laboratory scale. However, the ability to scale the production of quantumdot semiconductors and the potential toxicity (e.g., adverse effects felt by the fabricationengineers and

The course addressesonly the math topics used in core engineering courses such as physics, engineering mechanics,electric circuits and computer programming sequences. Using an application-oriented, hands-onproblem-based learning approach, it replaced traditional math prerequisite requirements for theaforementioned core courses in order for students to advance in the curriculum without firstcompleting a traditional first-year calculus sequence.

For the freshmanstudent, online learning is most suitable for factual type learning or less challenging learningactivities [12].F2F would be recommended for intensively challenging, high-benefit learning activities.

Another form of course context is the type of courses that influence the faculty’s coursedecisions. In engineering curricula, courses are typically in the form of introductory courses,fundamental engineering courses, laboratory courses, and capstone courses (Lord & Chen, 2015;Sheppard et al., 2009).

Unlike engineering research,EER typically includes a broad range of uncontrollable confounding variables and a lack ofspecificity and guidance in the selection of appropriate theoretical frameworks and analyticalmethods [5,6].Since engineering faculty are often the initiators of EER studies, it is logical that faculty whoalready teach engineering courses and conduct engineering research may be inclined to pursueEER opportunities.
