The peerfeedback process is examined for design review presentations during a preliminary conceptualdesign project for first and second year college students in a conceptual design course. Theauthors of this study are able to note the differences in these topics as a function of the gender ofthe commenter. The study

Suchrubrics were used to assess student work on 12 problem sets, three midterm exams, and fiveproject milestones. Grading of problem sets and project milestones was completedpredominantly through the course learning management system, Blackboard LearnTM. Studentscould access their overall grade through Blackboard’s gradebook and their individual LOassessments and written feedback by drilling into the rubrics associated with assignments onBlackboard.

thatwork experience helped students recognize the importance of the ability to collaborate withothers. There was an increased appreciation of the importance of the ability to explain ideas toco-workers who might have a different or no technical background. Students also felt that workexperience contributed to their boldness in stating opinions and asking questions about aspects ofgroup work as well as of professors. This differed from their undergraduate experience, wherethey did not ask for clarification from either fellow students or professors. Work also taught thedifference between teamwork as experienced in the workplace and group work in school.Students who had not had work experience tended to approach projects which were meant to be agroup

Previously, students would either have to take notes from thePowerPoint slides projected while trying to follow the instruction, or they printed hard copies ofthe PowerPoint slides and took notes on them. Tablet PCs allowed students to do both thingssimultaneously.Only two disadvantages were noted while using the Tablet PCs in this course, one logistical, andthe other, possibly inherent to students’ use of computers in a classroom. First, occasionalreliability issues with the wireless network would cause a student to lose connectivity and so

To allow for the most normal behavior ofthe students, the investigator sat to the side for the first few minutes of class and allowed thestudents to begin their work. During this time, the investigator made observations about theclass environment and student interactions.

Inorder to identify students who may be a good fit for a future in engineering, the characteristics oftoday’s talented engineer, one who acquires specific knowledge and a professional engineeringlicense, need to be investigated.For this project, one research question was considered: What are the common childhood skills,traits, influences, and school experiences of talented engineers?This retrospective study piloted an instrument designed to identify the influences, skills, andtraits that drew talented engineers to engineering.

to get out of thetraditional “teaching mode” as it was for the students to get out of the “passive learning” mode.Nevertheless, the students’ final projects and presentations suggest that the learning experiencesucceeded and students developed a realistic understanding of what it takes to be an entrepreneur.Further, the experience resulted in a plan of improvements to the method, three of them key. First,given the natural ambiguity of PBL to develop entrepreneurial skills, it is imperative that structuralaspects of the course are as unambiguous as possible. Second, the grading and support structure ofthe course need to reward student self-sufficiency. Third, in-class activities must be structured sothat teams are forced to be fully prepared
