expectations and learningoutcomes further increasing the opportunity for success? Can an assessment as learning beutilized by engineering educators to demonstrate the principles of technical contract review using asyllabus as the contract further increases students’ understanding? Method An online engineering mechanics course conducted during the 2023 summer sessionincluded an assignment where 125 students were asked to review the syllabus and complete aquiz. Questions to the quiz could be answered by reading the syllabus. For example, students wereasked questions on office hours policy, alignment of assessments to topics, and prerequisiteknowledge. The instructor recorded emails received from

Thermodynamics CourseAbstractCan online labs improve student learning in comparison to hands-on labs? Do they have space inour curriculum for online and in-person lab offerings? Can some of the lessons learned apply toin-person lab offerings? Can online labs improve the sense of inclusion and belonging?These questions are addressed in the paper. The paper describes the five labs conducted 100%online in a 3rd-year Introduction to Thermodynamics course in a mid-size comprehensiveuniversity’s mechanical engineering program. The course comprises 200 minutes of lectures and125 minutes of labs per week in a 10-week term. The lectures are offered in a flipped format;lectures are pre-recorded, and class periods are used for problem-solving and

malware trafficIn a F2F class to be converted, if an in-person approach was used to achieve a particular learningoutcome, we would search for an alternative, online approach. For example, many labsperformed on computers in a physical computer room may be moved to virtual labs online usinga decentralized approach or centralized cloud approaches. More details will be discussed insection 3.5.In another example, in-class student presentations were integral part of some F2F courses. Afterclasses are moved online, students now create presentations using software (Mediasite Mosaic)on their own computers and upload videos to the University Mediasite server for peer review.If no learning outcomes are clearly defined in the syllabus, it is a good idea to

, instructors were informed in the beginning of the semester to revise theirsyllabus with new PCs, and new ABET outcomes. Instructors were also informed to consult withtheir course coordinator to check if the SLOs were modified for the courses based on the newPCs if they need to be modified. If the SLOs were modified the instructors were required torevise the syllabus to include the new SLOs. In Fall 2019, data collection based on new PCs andnew ABET outcomes was done for the very first time.In Spring 2020, Assessment data from Fall 2019 was compiled into a master assessmentspreadsheet which was made available for viewing by all faculty in the department.

At the University, all 4th-year senior seminar course engineeringand computer science majors study the module as part of the seminar syllabus. Other work related to theassessment of the use of the e-learning modules has focused on contributions to the development ofstudents’ entrepreneurial mindset.

The online and classroom section of all courses had the same syllabus, textbook, instructor, homework assignments, exams and week by week schedule. Online learning modules for each chapter were made available to the students in-sync with the weekly material prescribed in the syllabus for each course. In the onsite version of each course, the instructor assured keeping pace with the syllabus. The pre-recorded online lectures were not made available to the students in the on-site sections of the courses. Thus the students had the same amount of time to work on homework and

But in most cases, it could be perceived as a possibledistraction from course content and could inhibit learning for some individuals.Regardless of whether instructors opt to or have the ability to restrict cell phone usage, the authorbelieves it is critical that instructors adapt to new learning techniques and appeal to the interests ofthe students. With cell phone usage averaging 8-10 hours per day for college-aged men and women[1, 2], delivering content via digital media may provide another way to reinforce classroomlearning goals. In particular, using online videos appeals to students because it allows adaptationto individual learning needs (exam preparation, missing lectures, homework help), manageability(pausing material, skipping

syllabus would not suit all projects andall teams. Therefore, we developed a general framework for the course. Then, based on thegeneral framework, each instructor develops a customized syllabus for a particular project.The general framework is as follows: 1) The course is a 1-unit class that comprises a team-based technical project component and a service learning component. It is an activity course, i.e. it may include classroom meetings, lab-based design, service learning, and other appropriate activities to meet the course learning outcomes. 2) The course learning outcomes (CLO) are specific for each project but must satisfy both the technical and service learning requirements

methodologies and students learning styleFor most NAU faculty, teaching in a Chinese university is a very special experience. There arealso well-known differences between the Chinese and U.S. education systems10,11,12. It is ofinterest to illustrate some of these distinctions between higher education systems.First, to a certain degree, the CQUPT education is still very much final exam-oriented, and this isreflected by comparing the course syllabus from both universities. In most CQUPT courses, thestudent’s performance is evaluated through a mid-term exam and final exam. It is very commonthat the final exam grade accounts for at least 50% of a student’s total grade and in many casesas high as 70%. On the contrary, the NAU or U.S. teaching philosophy

To this day, the experience in the Rhetoric course is oftendescribed as a moment of true co-design.In the engineering realm, a group of students took part in a course called Creating & Making. Inthe course, students worked in small groups throughout the term to build toys to teach eight-year-olds about a topic of their choice [15]–[17]. Students learned about the user-centered designprocess, ideation techniques, modern fabrication technologies (including CAD), and scrummethodology.

These assignments includedweekly readings, discussions, quizzes, labs and projects. A big part of this course involved theimplementation of the HRI concepts on an actual robot platform. The Arduino robot wasselected due to the large online community and access to sample code to help students get startedon assignments9. The labs included creating a robot dancer, music machine, touch free robotracer, robot conga line, Braitenberg vehicles, and robot remote control.

Kicking off the course was an overview of US engineering history from the 19thcentury on through the present day.

I invented several analysis tools for measuring the embodiment of course materials, the flows of communication and information, and the ”sense of place,” using frameworks such as the Vitruvian Triad and the concept of tacit knowledge and Vygotsky’s Zone of Proximal Development. Since the notion of a ”sense of place” is not well understood outside the design fields, my recent research seeks to define the concept

Based on the online course learning tool, the number of studentswho accessed the references typically exceeded the number of students who cited the source(Table 1); so students may have read more widely than their direct reference list implies. Further,some students failed to cite sources that they clearly had used. For example, only five studentsincluded the ASCE Code of Ethics5 in their reference list, while all but one actually cited specificcanons from this code in the assignment (one student used the NSPE code of ethics instead).Table 1.
