For a more in-depth look at the course sequence, consult Monroe et al. (2006) and Lima etal. (2001).ChangesDuring the past 25 years, a number of changes have occurred that have influenced thesecourses. These changes include an increase in student population and interest inbioengineering, ABET accreditation, and increasing collaboration among instructors. Each ofthese changes and the corresponding change in course(s) is discussed below.Changes in population and interests of

Next time, I mighttry setting a timer to help keep the team on track” (Student 7, 322B).The use of time is viewed as regulating behavior where students’ intentions entail behavioralcontrol. In Student 7’s case, efforts to focus and optimize their design intentions entailsimproving on their attentional control using ‘a timer.’ In making plans, time is also viewed aseffort control [6] where students form intentions about distributing their time and efforts acrossdesign activities.Planning in relation to Modeling: Spending and spreading time out generally or specifically to adesign activity was expressed in relation to modeling, where students intend ‘not getting

In this paper, we position sign creation as a locus forexamining the construction of engineering meaning.This paper centers on two illustrative case studies in engineering sign development: (1) thestress-strain curve and (2) affordance theory. For each case study, we begin by describing thenew sign prototypes and how they fit the concept(s) they attempt to describe. We compare thenew sign to previous options for signing each concept, contextualizing them as examples of thecolonized/assimilated nature of Deaf Education in the United States.

shows thatstudents prefer having workshops in the evenings as opposed to mornings. The preference forevening workshops is corroborated by Hoffman et al.’s study [7]. This could be due to the timingof survey collection; the 2017 survey was sent out in Mid-March, while the 2018 survey was sentout Mid-January. The differences in preference could be a result of students considering theirschedules for the spring semester in the 2018 data. This could also serve to explain the increasein preference for a one-hour workshop in the ‘amount of time’ data.Figure 3.

Curriculum needs to be examined to determine if it not only raisesstudents’ test scores but also provides a stimulus to pursue a career in STEM. Researchdocumenting differences in achievement and attitudes towards STEM subjects need continuedstudy. If differences are evident, it is important to determine when those differences occurred.Without an understanding of the differences in attributes of girls and boys in STEM areas, it isdifficult to provide an equal learning opportunity for both groups.ReferencesAud, S., Hussar, W., Johnson, F., Kena, G

Overall, students have moderate views of how relevant their mathematics courseworkis to their engineering studies.Overall, students had moderate to slightly positive views of the relevance of mathematics toengineering. This result appears much like a dampened version of the results from Flegg et al.’swork.

argumentation supports the student’s ability toarticulate the reason for approaching a problem in a particular way, justify her/his approach byusing information and reasoning and provide the principles that establish that justification.When analyzing the students’ collective argument, teachers identify three core elements calledthe claim, data, and warrant. The claim is the statement or statements whose validity is beingestablished. The data are statements provided as support for the claims. The warrants arestatements that connect the data to the claim(s). Collective argumentation supports student-to-student or teacher-to-student discussions and allows one to trace her/his understanding of ideasand concepts as they form. While the content within the

Finally, students investigate ways to make fluid flow and learn how fluidflow is measured and described quantitatively. Following hands-on exploration, students useonline models and animations to illustrate the “non-visible” mechanism(s) driving many of theobserved macroscopic events. Concepts of molecular motion and heat transfer are stressed,linking the online visualization to the hands-on activities. Computer-based mathematicalsimulations are utilized prior to the final design and build phase allowing students to alter avariety of design parameters and quantify their impact on the system efficiency (STEMPractices).
