elevated to higherimportance. Since teaching is a primary area of activity, it should have a high level ofachievement. Teaching may be separated into the two components of instructional delivery andinstructional development. If one thinks seriously about the art and science of teaching, it is clearthat these two components have a huge impact on student learning and, in reflection, thecandidate’s achievement. In essence, both of these components are distinct, yet interdependent.Effective delivery depends upon careful planning and development. Course developmentdepends on the commitment of continual improvement of delivery and subject mastery.

The methodology can be learnedin the classroom but the experience is best gained by completing actual projects, preferably as amember of a design team. These projects can be chosen by the students, i.e. something they'reinterested in, or they can be created by the instructor

addition tothese questions, we have recently added an investigation into the conceptual understanding ofengineering material when practicing with OEMPs. This new research question has beenmotivated by student survey results and instructor feedback. Future plans include developing afaculty development workshop that will explain how to design an OEMP, why they are beneficialto students’ education and development as an engineer, and how to implement them in theclassroom. The goal of this workshop will be to encourage professors to use open-endedproblems in engineering science courses and give their students an opportunity to practiceengineering judgment. With this, we can begin to understand all of the ways in which studentsdevelop as engineers from
