].Expectations for TAs:While research shows that TAs believe that content knowledge is the sole key to being aneffective teacher [14], students have a much different idea of what TAs should bring to the table.In a study of seven laboratory and lecture courses in environmental and water resourcesengineering, students were asked to rank what makes an effective TA from 17 categories ofintellectual excitement and interpersonal rapport developed by the American Society of CivilEngineers Body of Knowledge (ASCE-BOK) to describe effective teaching [22]. 21.3% ofstudents ranked fair grading practices as their first choice for what makes for an effective TAfollowed by explaining difficult concepts well (14.9%), coming to the classroom or laboratoryprepared (13.3

The use of MATLAB allowsconcepts to be reinforced from classroom learning directly to computer application. When theinstructional modality changed to an exclusively laboratory format, it further ensured theeffectiveness of teaching computing as a vehicle for developing engineering problem solvingskills. For example, the addition of the MATLAB Notebook feature enabled the integration ofthe powerful MATLAB environment with the widely popular word processing environment MS Page 9.719.3Word.

. Student testing was extremely valuable in identifyingactivities that needed improvement and items in the manual that needed revision . Based on theirfeedback, several changes were implemented to further promote discovery learning. Testing withformer students is highly encouraged for anyone developing new laboratory experiments. The revised experiments are being implemented with students in the “Design of MachineElements” course in the Spring 2014. Feedback from students and teaching assistants has con-firmed the value of the experiments in engaging students in the analysis and design of mechani-cal springs. Students became familiar with different types of springs, experimentally determinedparameters of springs, analyzed and designed springs

In this non-traditional setting, instructors use an integrated, active,and collaborative instructional technique. Also, unlike many other universities, there is not aseparate time slot allocated in the schedule to conduct the laboratory experiments for this CEmaterials course. Instead, the lab is embedded into the course structure. Although it has beendocumented in the literature that this technique represents effective teaching pedagogy only afew engineering programs have adopted this method. In addition, the WSOE is only in its thirdyear since students

An active learningapproach is used to develop the instructional materials for ACM. The goal of the "active learning"curriculum is to create an effective learning environment where students enjoy “hands-on”experiences through laboratory experiments and computer simulations and illustrations. Thegeneral objectives of this study are: (a) to develop a framework on active learning approach, (b) toapply this framework to design teaching modules on fundamentals and applications of ACM; and(c) to translate

This field is dedicated to analyzing bodies that are either at rest orin a state of equilibrium, where the net forces and moments are balanced. The pedagogicalapproach to teaching statics commonly encompasses both lectures and laboratory sessions,providing a comprehensive learning experience. Typically introduced at the sophomore level orfirst year engineering projects, this course builds upon the foundational knowledge acquired inintroductory engineering courses i.e. CAD. At this stage, most students may not have delved intomechanical design. However, towards the conclusion of the statics course, an

These experiments are well-suited foreither laboratory studies or, due to the device’s portability, for in-class demonstrations.In this paper we present the complete design, including the bill of materials, assembly drawings,and assembly instructions for the apparatus.

While pure distance educationaddresses the accessibility issue, it has inherent problems of higher attrition for lower divisionundergraduates, greater difficulties in applying teamwork skills, and lack of student access toequipment for appropriate laboratory experiences. While computer simulations can providerealistic instruction for many laboratory experiences, many of the current solutions require eithermoving the laboratories to the students or moving the students for extended time to thelaboratories.

A study conducted by Zaka et al.[2] in flipped class room teaching found thatstudents universally enjoyed learning independently and appreciated the increased collaborationinduced by the flipped approach. The flexibility of the approach enabled a range of independentlearning and collaboration, and students were able to find learning styles that suited them.Several studies [3] [4] [5] indicated that more benefits include the opportunity to cover morematerial over a short period of time and freeing up more time for active learning, collaboration,critical thinking, problem solving, and deeper understanding of the content.
