next planning meeting.Although some students exit the room with their same-major classmates, others leave with theirnewly formed design group. This represents the first step in what will be a semester-long, cross-major project that draws on the strengths and knowledge of both majors.RationaleThis article describes the successful partnering of students from an engineering design class withstudents from an early childhood social studies methods course. Students were tasked withdesigning an interactive and open-ended museum quality exhibit for children that could beinstalled in a local informal learning setting. The project, which capitalized on the contentexpertise of both groups of students, demonstrates the value of fostering

meaningful as possible.The initial plan was to have one 3D printed jet engine, and have the students install their sensorsand actuators on to the same system. However, this proved challenging since both the teamswanted to choose a different method of actuation, and different configurations. Since the CADdesigns were ready, it was decided to 3D print another setup so that the groups could workindependently.The other challenge students faced was the time required to get the finished 3D printed parts. The3D prints usually have support material. The support material is removed by dissolving it in a hotchemical bath which took some considerable amount of time. Therefore, in order to reduce timeneeded to print all the parts, the students decided to

Our underlying aim is to achieve a pedagogical transformation that empowers anew generation of engineers equipped with skills essential and relevant to the technicalworkforce. This project was funded by a generous grant from W. M. Keck Foundation. This paper highlights the motivation behind this initiative, discusses the proposed plan ofaction, and presents initial results and observations from a pilot implementation of this initiative,specifically focusing on the curricular enhancement aspect of the project. Efficacy of thisimplementation was gauged using feedback from student-surveys. Progress towards the goals

Theauthor also guides and supervises independent and group studies on this subject. The latter isfor students who have focussed topics within the area of deployable structures; for example,transformable dome structures. This way, students get an opportunity to explore and learn aboutspecialized topics not offered in the regular curricula.A highlight of the independent studies has been the “learning by making” component. Throughthe construction of physical models and connection details, students understand how precisionin geometry is essential for proper movement of parts and thereby foldability of a

The first was to determine the effects ofparticipating in the professional development.

The second purpose was todetermine the effects of receiving coaching, in the context of ongoing professional development,on instructional practices, as measured by the RTOP.

This course would be one of thefirst mechanical engineering courses required by the university that is not considered part ofthe general education curriculum. The purpose of this study is to track the effects of HIPs withcarefully planned pedagogies that would provide numerous benefits for the students, such asoverall increased learning gains and graduation rates. There are seven HIPs characteristicsused to measure the results at the end of the semester: these are (1) interaction with faculty, (2)interaction with peers, (3) feedback from instructor, (4) quality time spent on the course
