TAs are usually senior students and by becoming a TA these students stop being part of the group of students. They become part of the staff and take on part of the responsibility for the learning and grading of fellow students. To make sure the TAs are prepared for these tasks, the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering in Delft, the Netherlands trains the TAs to help them develop the necessary skills, and build up a relationship of trust between the TAs and the lecturer. TAs can be used in a variety of roles, requiring different competencies for each, hence requiring different contents for each training session. Over the years a lot of insight on how to go about these workshops has been gained. Both TAs and lecturers recognize the added value of the workshops because it greatly improves the quality of the teaching by the TAs. In this paper the objectives for these workshops will be discussed as well as the formats and the rationale behind these workshops to allow others to implement similar workshops.","PeriodicalId":129330,"journal":{"name":"2009 39th IEEE Frontiers in Education Conference","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131621342","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This change, however, poses an additional burden on the instructor's resources. Besides, the simultaneous redesign of all degrees has allowed universities to exploit synergies. In the Carlos III University, this has led to the creation of horizontal, core subjects that span multiple engineering degrees. The subject analyzed in this paper, Foundations of Engineering Management, spans 7 different engineering degrees. Since this is a core (not elective) subject, this might result in nearly 20 groups being taught each year, from Sep 2009 onwards. Adopting the “Bologna process” student-centric methodologies in such a high-enrollment subject faces significant hurdles in areas such as resources or homogenization. This requires achieving the educational equivalent of the current manufacturing trend towards “mass-customization”, in order to allow individually tailored learning paths with a level of resources similar to that required by standardized education. This paper analyzes the project of designing and preparing for this shift, including the preparatory pilots and the adoption of ITC support tools to facilitate the process.","PeriodicalId":129330,"journal":{"name":"2009 39th IEEE Frontiers in Education Conference","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130196788","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One important and vital aspect of such a reform concerns preparatory mathematics in engineering education and the revision of mathematics content in a modern engineering curriculum, the topic of this panel session. It has become increasingly obvious that the standard series of three calculus courses followed by one course on differential equations is now obsolete and insufficient to provide needed mathematical skills for a modern engineering education. ABET now requires discrete mathematics and applied statistics among other topics. Newly developed engineering programs have adopted different mathematics courses in their degree programs. A new electrical and computer engineering program is under development at the State University of New York at Oswego where a modern engineering curriculum must also face the challenge of smooth integration within the existing traditional curricular organization of a public university. The panelists will discuss the evidence in support of reform and engage discussions on directions, course content, and other issues for a successful revision of engineering education.","PeriodicalId":129330,"journal":{"name":"2009 39th IEEE Frontiers in Education Conference","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127566386","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To meet the needs of community college engineering programs, the logistical and commercial feasibility of shipping a complete laboratory in a box will be investigated. This will minimize the laboratory preparation time for community college instructors. These laboratories will be suitable for use in either technological literacy or introduction to engineering courses. The laboratories will attempt to utilize insights from non-engineering students to determine themes that may help interest students in engineering and enliven introduction to engineering courses. Technological literacy courses on a number of campuses have found that non-engineers respond positively to material that focuses on technology familiar to the students in their everyday life, uses extensive verbal and graphical explanations, and includes useful information that helps to establish a sense of empowerment regarding technology. Eight laboratory projects will be created and tested at a variety of two and four-year schools.","PeriodicalId":129330,"journal":{"name":"2009 39th IEEE Frontiers in Education Conference","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128127160","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In a pioneering exploratory study, PhD engineering students entered an innovative, inquiry-based high school math/science setting as \"visiting experts.\" Without formal training as teachers, nor expectations of student interaction, the participants embarked on creating social opportunities for inquiry. Using a mixed methods case-study model, researchers documented the interaction of participants through video-media as well as surveys and interviews of participants on their experiences. By documenting the intricate levels of social context in the learning environment between \"novice\" learners and visiting \"experts,\" this study hopes to advance our understanding of the inquiry role that both of these groups share and to document the co-learning opportunities that arise in the context of the STEM classroom community.

This robotic platform can also be used for experimental research in mobile sensor networks. The platform we adopted is the surveyor robot (SRV-1) platform.
