To develop an experiment for examination of fatigue failure theories, 2. To create an opportunity for collaborative research and design efforts between engineering student(s) and faculty, 3. To generate a modular, cost-effective, reproducible apparatus with outstanding design characteristics, 4. To make all information necessary

Design in Engineering Education

AbstractDesign tasks are ubiquitous, complex, ill-structured, and challenging to students and professionalengineering designers. Successful designing depends on having not only adequate knowledge butalso sufficient awareness and control of that knowledge, known as metacognition. Researchsuggests that metacognition not only enhances learning outcomes but also encourages students tobe self-regulated learners who are metacognitively, motivationally, and behaviorally activeparticipants in their learning process.This article evaluates the extent to which students‟ task interpretation of the design project isreflected in their working plans and monitoring/regulating strategies. Butler and Cartier‟s Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) model was used to evaluate the

Women in Engineering

Learning Engineering Survey(APPLES). Five research questions were posed in the survey design: • Do women express a loss of interest during their program? • Is there a chilly climate for women in the college? • Do women‟s self-efficacy levels change during the program? • Do academic performance levels play a role in women‟s retention in engineering? • Do women have an adequate support structure in the college?The survey generated 116 responses from 2 solicitations, with women students representedfrom every major across all four undergraduate years. An unintended outcome was that thesample largely consists of women with high grade point averages. Thus, this paper offersinsight on top performing women‟s self-efficacy and

The number of performance criteria per outcome was limited to fouras an accepted rule-of-thumb as they were being developed.

However, the quality of the projects (theirsturdiness, complexity) was not different among the groups.In the third session, the difference between the builders and the programmers was again clear.The builders would build structures and find a way to work in their mechanisms later, while theprogrammers would first build their mechanism(s) to be programmed and then later find a way toconnect it to a larger structure. The ideas for the final projects also came from separate places. Inthe third group, one programmer was very anxious to use the programming structure calledEvents, and created her entire project around that. On

This paper will describe the implementation of this hybrid GE/senior project course and will present the assessment of the first year of this program’s implementation. Introduction In January 2013, the California State University Board of Trustees mandated that, unless excepted, undergraduate degree programs, including engineering degrees, be limited to 120 units. Title 5 § 40508 [1] states that “[a]s of the fall term of the 2014-2015 academic year, no baccalaureate degree programs shall extend the unit requirement beyond 120 semester units…” This mandate and short timeline for implementation necessitated swift action for proposals to be submitted and approved via campus curriculum committees and

’ actual work has been found poor.15In light of these issues, many researchers have defined engineering retention as simply thenumber of engineering graduates who report being employed in an engineering occupation.16-21By this measure, as of 2008, an estimated 1.2 million out of 2.5 million individuals withengineering as their highest degree were retained in engineering.22 Nonetheless, an obviouslimitation of counting engineers in this way is that, unlike using degree-job relatedness, “it willnot capture individuals using S&E knowledge, sometimes extensively, under [other]occupational titles”.21 In other words, defining engineering based on occupational classificationdoes not capture the full range of career paths that engineers take.14,23
