The team has consisted of ten faculty members from all the engineering disciplines plus physics and mathematics. The team has operated on weekly (1-2 hour) workshop style sessions for both the planning and the implementation phases of this work. The team has followed a code of cooperation and continues to practice the principles of teaming. The team used the Affinity Process to group sophomore topics and the Modified Nominal Group Technique to prioritize the topics in an effort to develop a curriculum. The resulting sophomore curriculum consisted of four courses (13 semester hrs) in the first semester and three courses (9 semester hrs) in the second semester. It builds upon the integrated engineering curriculum which has been developed for the freshman year by the Foundation Coalition at TAMUK. First offered in the fall of 1996, the courses for the first semester sophomore year were: Integrated Engineering Systems 1 (3 hrs+1 hr design lab), Integrated Mechanics I (3 hrs), Integrated Physics II, (4 hrs), and Integrated Mathematics III, (3 hrs). The second semester courses were: Integrated Engineering Systems II, (3 hrs+I hr design lab), Integrated Mechanics II, (3 hrs), and Integrated Mathematics IV, (3 hrs). Results of the 1996-97 implementation of the courses are described, as well as the design and use of a specialized modern technology enabled classroom for cooperative/active learning.","PeriodicalId":135969,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Frontiers in Education 1997 27th Annual Conference.

OMED: Educational Services-raising expectations and performance 教育服务——提高期望和绩效

Since its inception in 1979, OMED has been an organization of continual change for the benefit of its customers. It has gone from being a comprehensive student services provider to an organization that focuses on the business and engineering of education. What was once the Office of Minority Educational Development (OMED) is now OMED: Educational Services. The new model and approach has allowed OMED to create a portfolio of activities and services designed to meet the ever changing needs of our students. This portfolio is customer (student) centered and driven by paradigms that are fundamental to systems engineering and business success, and designed to create quality diversity. Those philosophies include: creating a maintaining a culture that expects outstanding performance; viewing education as a manufacturing process that is designed to generate a desired output from raw material; coaching students to manage the system through the development, practice, and refinement of strategies; empowering students to become proactive learners and problem solvers who are intellectually adaptive; serving students as individuals; one at a time; couching the educational process as a family investment that is to be systematically managed; treating students as customers and valuing their \"business\" and their input; ensuring process and program development that is data driven. The results have generated a significant improvement in grade averages and retention rates with underrepresented students performing on par with the overall population.","PeriodicalId":135969,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Frontiers in Education 1997 27th Annual Conference.

The advantages of using these tools over hand calculations include reduction in mathematical errors, faster execution of repetitive calculations, and exploration of alternative configurations. However, having students create these worksheets by hand increases the chance for errors in setting up the calculations and can increase the difficulty in understanding the concepts themselves. STructural Analysis Resource (STAR) is intended to allow students to concentrate on the concepts of structural analysis rather than the calculations, and to simplify the process of creating worksheets for solving problems. The key element of STAR is a graph representation of high-level abstractions of structural analysis methods and data. A student creates a problem-solving strategy by interactively building up a graph. The graph representation facilitates understanding of the relationship between concepts and the flow of data through a problem. The method nodes are hierarchically constructed by the instructor or student from system-supplied commands and/or other methods. Conversely, the method nodes are modeled as hierarchical \"glass boxes\", which allow the student to expand a node and see the underlying intermediate steps; these steps are not and cannot be hidden from the student. After the student has created a graph representing the problem-solving strategy, STAR translates the graph to a worksheet for selected target execution environments, such as Excel or Maple.","PeriodicalId":135969,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Frontiers in Education 1997 27th Annual Conference.

Distance education enables students who are unable to attend classes on a regular basis (for reasons such as work or family commitments, disability or geographical location) to complete degrees in their own time and at their own preferred location. While providing these study opportunities has been the primary reason that universities have specialized in distance learning, increasingly educational institutions are viewing distance learning as a means of broadening their student base, often in answer to political pressures. Before deciding to offer courses at a distance, consideration must be given to: how, by whom and for whom the courses will be developed; what professional support is needed and available to assist with development; the support structures that will be put in place for the students; the logistics and mechanics of assessment; the equipment and software to which the students must have access; the courses that will benefit from integrating technologies in their preparation and teaching; what is a reasonable class size; and so forth. Today consideration must be given also to the costs and benefits of: multimedia; interactive distance learning via satellites; and computer mediated courses. This paper considers aspects of these issues from various perspectives.","PeriodicalId":135969,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Frontiers in Education 1997 27th Annual Conference.
