However, there often seems to be a divide between the theory and its practical application and implementation. How can SMET educators best begin to bridge this gap? To respond to this question, we provide a brief overview of educational research literature in science and engineering. We share some successful pedagogical approaches to teaching and learning that have been developed at our own institutions and that demonstrate how to bridge the gap between theory and practice. Successful practices include the use of case studies, active and cooperative learning, and writing/reflection activities. In addition, we highlight successful assessment practices as they relate to the enhancement of student learning.","PeriodicalId":299238,"journal":{"name":"32nd Annual Frontiers in Education","volume":"211 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131648616","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 this presentation, the authors formalize both, distinguish between them, consider a unified thread informing a mechanics curriculum and illustrate it through applications. Taken piecewise, the elements employed here are not new, but taken together, as an integrated, systematic process, the curriculum differs markedly from traditional mechanics curricula. Students learn theory and apply it to do mechanical design and learn about project engineering, manufacturing and more. Because applications must be current, the curriculum remains vibrant and practicable. This is a work in progress.","PeriodicalId":299238,"journal":{"name":"32nd Annual Frontiers in Education","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133724894","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 project is intended to be a path finder for NASA as it researches and works to gain the acceptance of technologies that will enable geographically dispersed personnel to work closely on projects. The design project is based around structural and thermal systems for a reusable launch vehicle. The students engage in design, analysis, simulation, building, and testing using virtual reality, and synchronous and asynchronous learning environments. The course is taught synchronously at Cornell and Syracuse using advanced teleconferencing facilities. A key feature of the project is that teams, consisting of students from both Cornell and Syracuse, must work together on their designs. This is facilitated by the use of an advanced, web-based collaboration environment that allows for asynchronous and synchronous communication, including audio/video conferencing, screen and application sharing, chat, instant messaging, access to reference materials and to design and simulation software.","PeriodicalId":299238,"journal":{"name":"32nd Annual Frontiers in Education","volume":"367 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134537325","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}

A Likert scale reflecting level of agreement with several statements provides options ranging from one to seven.

This form of faculty assessment is limited in its ability to inform either curricular or faculty improvements, particularly when problem-based, collaborative-learning, or other nontraditional environments are being used This paper reports on a new approach piloted in Spring 2000 and implemented in the Engineering Design department at Penn State. Student teams are asked to write and sign a formal letter to the department head reporting on their experiences with both the course and the faculty.

Our goal is a system in which a student will talk to a computer using English sentences, in response to which the computer will generate syntactically correct Java source code. We believe that such a system would help beginning students by allowing them to focus on concepts instead of syntactic details, and that it would also be a boon to students with visual or mobility impairments. As a prelude to designing and implementing such a system, we evaluated the concept via a Wizard of Oz study. Volunteer subjects were told that they were helping us evaluate a working system. In reality, an accomplished programmer was playing the role of the purported system, and we were studying how the subjects interacted with it. We describe the system that we envision, discuss the process of running a Wizard of Oz study in the context of our own recently completed study, and summarize our preliminary results.","PeriodicalId":299238,"journal":{"name":"32nd Annual Frontiers in Education","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123580317","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 improve the quality of the design experience funding was obtained from the NSF to examine team decision-making processes in the sequence.

This paper describes how the research results have been put into action in the classroom. Specifically, one result of this research project is the development of a team building routine, the Team Challenge Short Course. This sequence of exercises responds to the research suggesting that female students in Design (EPICS) I feel less confident about their contribution and leadership roles after completing the course. This was not found to be true for their male counterparts.

While responses to traditional survey questions are used within Clemson's General Engineering program to assess the value of the course to the students, this study focuses on the message department representatives want to hear. The departments this course serves generally set aside survey results from the general population of students taking the course, because the value of those results is clouded by the presence of many students who will never major in engineering because they do not pass prerequisite courses. This study therefore focuses on the major-changing behaviors of students who were eligible for majors in engineering.
