Abstract

Lessons in On-Campus and Distance Learning Delivery of an Introductory Naval Architecture Course to Engineering and Engineering Technology Undergraduate StudentsThis paper describes the author’s experiences in multi-mode (face-to-face and online)delivery of an introductory-level course on the topic of Naval Architecture geared towards anaudience of engineering and engineering technology undergraduate students with no previousmaritime background. The goal of this course is to expose talented undergraduateengineering students to the marine industry and to prepare those interested in pursing a careerin this field with an introductory understanding of the complex nature of designing andbuilding ships and other marine vessels. This course was offered in Spring 2013 and Fall2013 to a group of engineering and engineering technology students. The course was offeredas hybrid course with students enrolled both as on-campus and distance-learning students.The paper touches on experiences and feedback from the instructor and students related tolectures, labs, assignments, project-based learning and site-visits.
