Similarly, Madison devised anIntroduction to Engineering Design course with outcomes for students such as: carry out a basicdesign process, learn and use skills in a team environment, and develop confidence, amongothers. While some students find these courses very motivating, others still leave for differentreasons [10].Another approach to STEM retention and success was put into action by Grand Valley StateUniversity. The results of this NSF funded S-STEM project have been remarkable, with nearly100% of “at risk” students finishing their degrees in a timely manner. To qualify for thisprogram, applicants are required to have completed the first two years of a STEM discipline witha GPA of 3.0 and

The Industrial Controls course was developed andimproved in response to an alumni request. We reported on this course in an earlier ASEEpaper. A brief summary of the course is provided here from the earlier paper.“The Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at the University of Wyoming wascontacted by one of our alumnus in the Spring of 2008 concerning development of an industrialcontrols course. The alumni had graduated in the early 1980’s developed a highly successfulindustrial control company that provided service to the chemical, mining, oil

In general, the two participants in this pilot study assessing the feasibility ofthe intervention were satisfied with the DIY interactive digital whiteboard, and theystated their beliefs that these tools could be useful in the classroom. This pilot studyshowed there is value in performing additional research examining teachers usinginnovative educational technologies to build affordable DIY digital teaching tools for theclassroom. Results from this study suggest it is possible that with the proper supportspreservice teachers might build DIY interactive digital whiteboards, and this maypositively influence their interest and engagement in teaching.Bibliography1.

community college experience did notadequately prepare them for the rigor and pace in the engineering curriculum.Some of these issues can be addressed by better advising. Hence we have identified a specificadvisor in each department to deal with all the transfer students; these advisors are also betterequipped to handle personal/family problems. Other issues are addressed in the successseminar so transfer students are more aware of university procedures and resources. We haverecommended that all transfer students be offered the opportunity to take the seminar.We are also working with area community colleges to address these issues. These schools canprovide orientation session(s) for students transferring to 4-year schools. Community collegefaculty

Why? 3. How would you (the student) go about seeking a job in this particular field of engineering practice?Each question, at first glance, seems to point to a specific answer or set of answers, and thusseems “closed.” But upon further reflection, the second part of the question made them open-ended. The freshmen would have to understand potential classes and experiences to understandhow they would be useful in a future career environment. For freshmen, this was a dauntingchallenge. They were marginally familiar with the curriculum, but
may arise as the nature of the problem changes.This special problem course can provide students an effective learning experience solving acomplex, ill-structured problem which the National Academy of Engineering has recognized as acritical competency for engineers in the 21st century 4. Compared to traditional textbookproblems, understanding a real problem is more time consuming and requires more inquiry anddiscovery by the students. Real problems also require more independence, initiative andpatience on the part of the problem solver(s). Real world problems are not strongly disciplinaryin the traditional sense and require the integration of several skills that students acquire in theirprogram of study.

A design project by enlarge is focused on developinga product that is robust, reliable, and economical. Keeping this in mind, our project teamdecided to incorporate Parallax Inc.’s BASIC Stamp2 module, in the wireless robot project.This compact BASIC Stamp2 module plugs into Parallax Inc.’s board of education carrierboard4. The basic BOE-BOT was used as a base model for the wireless robot.
