New graduates are not only required to have good technical skills but also excel in professional skills to be successful in their career choices. As a response, academic programs have integrated professional skills such as teamwork/communication, ethics, global awareness, creative problem solving, and leadership, into their curricula. However, there are challenges in the assessment of learning outcomes related to professional skills. By designing a uniform assessment framework for all professional skills and developing a set of coherent assessment instruments that can be tailored according to the learning objectives and student level, the proposed assessment framework aims to facilitate the integration of professional skills assessment into an overall program assessment plan. The proposed framework will be tested in various course levels (i.e., first year to senior) from STEM majors at various institutions.","PeriodicalId":162124,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE Integrated STEM Education Conference (ISEC)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115583414","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}

Since the current and future state of the energy industry has a direct effect on the daily lives of individuals, we believe that some degree of familiarity with this industry is of great value to our students; especially to those who major in engineering, sciences or other STEM related fields. As more natural resources are depleted and as the pursuit for alternative sources of energy to replace fossil fuels continues, it is important to prepare the next generation of students for the many challenges that lie ahead. In accordance with the efforts to provide our undergraduate students with an interdisciplinary curriculum, we have designed and implemented an energy course that focuses on the science and technology aspects of the energy industry and also it examines the important role that policies, policy makers and the government play in shaping the future of the energy industry. This paper presents some of the highlights of this cross-disciplinary course, which is an example of a possible synergy between STEM disciplines and the social science fields.","PeriodicalId":162124,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE Integrated STEM Education Conference (ISEC)","volume":"69 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124498176","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}

Low-cost approaches to UAV design using advanced manufacturing techniques 采用先进制造技术的低成本无人机设计方法

Flynn","doi":"10.1109/ISECON.2013.6525199","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/ISECON.2013.6525199","url":null,"abstract":"Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) platforms are of major interest to Defense, Government, and commercial industries. The ability to remotely control an aerial vehicle capable of surveillance, offensive and defensive maneuvering, reconnaissance, or numerous other applications without the need to put a human life in jeopardy is a major attraction to their use. Furthermore, there exists opportunities to make these airborne vehicles largely autonomous, further reducing the need for even remote human operators. However, for all of the significant advantages of UAVs, there is a significant negative: the cost of manufacture, and the cost of design. Due in part to the substantial amount of complex electronic equipment on board, UAVs become not only a design of aeronautics, but an experiment in energy conservation through optimization. A limited range of UAV power becomes a limiting factor of UAV application. The challenge becomes to optimize the size, weight, and aerodynamics of the UAV based on the application. Along with a NASA faculty research grant, the project has been given seven college engineering students with the singular goal of investigating UAV design techniques using advanced manufacturing techniques and STEM principles. In this paper, it will be shown how a college manufacturing lab, paired with a team of student engineers, and guided by an engineering faculty member, will seek to provide tangible, industry-quality results.","PeriodicalId":162124,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE Integrated STEM Education Conference (ISEC)","volume":"189 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117314850","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}
