;afk12@psu.eduCurriculum summary: High school students are often overwhelmed by the proliferation of specialties available to themin the realm of engineering. It is often the approach of the instructor to lecture to the studentsdirectly, rather than allowing them to explore the areas for themselves. To meet this need, anactivity was developed to expose students to the various disciplines of engineering in aninnovative and engaging way. Students in a high school level introduction to engineering classwere given giant whiteboards headed with the various disciplines and allowed a short interval inwhich to write words or phrases with which they associated the discipline. Following theactivity, the words were collected to form word clouds, which were

The Center for Pre-College Programs atNew Jersey Institute of Technology provides a variety of such summer programs. One of theprograms, sponsored by ExxonMobil and the Harris Foundation, the ExxonMobil Bernard HarrisSummer Science Camp (EMBHSSC), recruits 5th, 6th and 7th grade students from traditionallyunderserved and typically underrepresented populations who in addition to not being introducedto engineering in school are less likely to be exposed to engineering outside the classroom.The academic curriculum for EMBHSSC, aligned

TI’s Code Composer Studio (CCS) – anEclipse-based Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and some open source software likethe lightweight TCP/IP stack called IwIP are used for software development. In this course, weintroduce students the TCP/IP protocols, and wireless communication technologies like WiFi andBluetooth. Through course projects, students study the implementation of TCP/IP protocols inpractice, and learn how to use drivers of Ethernet port and WiFi connection to developmicrocontroller-based networking applications.

Society for Engineering Education, 2015 The Effect of Additional Statics Class Time on At-Risk Student Performance ABSTRACT The academic performance of at-risk engineering students in the core classes statics anddynamics was studied to determine if an additional hour of class time in statics improvedoutcomes. This was possible because two version of the same statics course was offered. Astandard version of the statics course met three hours per week over the course of a fifteen-weeksemester while a second version met four hours per week. Students identified as at-risk using aninformal screening procedure populated the four-hour statics course. For

Nowadays Russia goes through modernization of engineering education. One of themost actual tasks of contemporary higher engineering educational institutions is to give up-to-date education in various areas and degrees. Contemporary engineer is not just a good technologist, but also a professional whounderstands economical, environmental, social and other problems of society. He or sheshould have comprehensive knowledge in science and technology, strive to constantprofessional development, critically search for constructive decisions and be able to workwith people. To achieve this task all the necessary qualities must be developed during theengineering studies at the university. Every engineer in a varying degree deals with equipment

As part ofNovel Engineering students develop projects based on texts they read in English Language Arts or othercontent classes, such as history. The characters become their clients and students pull information fromthe text to scope problems and set constraints as they engage in engineering design. The open-endeddesign context provides students with space to explore their ideas through engineering while workingtowards classroom goals.
