Ideally, software engineering education for adults should support students' desire for self-direction by allowing students to absorb material in the manner in which each individual learns best, while at the same time allowing students the freedom to explore topics of interest. This paper describes an investigation into self-directed learning in a Web application design and development course which uses a student-defined project approach. Results of an ongoing survey-based study performed by the instructor to determine student attitude toward the student-defined project are discussed. Students were surveyed on their opinions at the beginning and end of the semester. Results indicate that students enjoy the self-deterministic approach used in the project, and approval of the student-directed approach showed an increase from the beginning of the semester to the end.","PeriodicalId":339926,"journal":{"name":"34th Annual Frontiers in Education, 2004.

These problems are called model-eliciting activities (MEAs), and they are based on the models and modeling perspective developed in mathematics education. Through a NSF-HRD gender equity project that has funded the development, use, and study of MEAs in undergraduate engineering courses for increasing women's interest in engineering, we have found that the MEA framework fosters significant change in the way engineering faculty think about their teaching and their students. In this paper, we will present the six principles that guide the development of an MEA, detail our motivation for using the MEA framework to construct open-ended problems, and discuss the opportunities and challenges to creating, implementing, and assessing MEAs.","PeriodicalId":339926,"journal":{"name":"34th Annual Frontiers in Education, 2004.

This imposes a significant financial and social burden on the students, who are typically married with families and full-time jobs. To reduce this time on campus, a three-year project funded by the Department of Educations' FIPSE program was initiated in 2002 to design several 50% on-line laboratory courses. The on-line assignments that have been developed include simulations (packaged and developed programs), and real time operation of equipment located in UND and North Dakota State University (NDSU) engineering laboratories. Simulations include process analysis, electrical circuit analysis, materials selection, and programmable logic control. Real time assignments detailed in the paper include process dynamics and control, electrical circuit analysis, steam turbine electricity generation, vibration analysis and programmable logic control.","PeriodicalId":339926,"journal":{"name":"34th Annual Frontiers in Education, 2004.

Access is 24x7, and the system supports multiple users on the same lab station. ALTE's architecture consists of a management server that provides access control as well as managing the course/experiment database. The management server interfaces to any number of lab stations. Each lab station consists of a dedicated PC that uses LabView's virtual instrument interface to send commands and retrieve data from active Agilent test equipment. A typical lab station consists of a networked-PC that is GPIB interfaced to an agilent programmable DC power supply, arbitrary waveform generator, digital multimeter and mixed-signal oscilloscope.","PeriodicalId":339926,"journal":{"name":"34th Annual Frontiers in Education, 2004.

Grade point averages are frozen at the time students leave engineering to investigate the role of grades in their decision to leave engineering and their choice of a destination major. This study adds to evidence indicating that poor performance is not the primary reason students leave engineering. Students leaving with low grades most likely select business, students with high grades more likely choose natural science majors and, interestingly, 10 to 20% at all performance levels choose education or a social science. The study also found that 10 to 15% of the students leaving engineering at all performance levels changed majors at least a second time before graduating, suggesting that changing majors is, for some, a journey of exploration rather than a matter of settling for one's second choice.","PeriodicalId":339926,"journal":{"name":"34th Annual Frontiers in Education, 2004.

The primary goal of this collaboration is to educate and bring community awareness to a diverse population through the exploration of interdisciplinary principles and to value the contributions of artists to science and scientists to the arts. To date, four workshops have been completed and a fifth workshop is scheduled for Spring, 2005. Preliminary workshops described will serve as a basis for statewide and national models to train teachers and educators in bringing multidisciplinary learning and integrated teaching into the classroom. Results of each workshop were examined on an immediate basis however, future research will include both short-term and long-term assessment components to examine program effectiveness. An overview of workshops will be presented as well as future program expansion including preliminary discussions of teacher education and teacher training.","PeriodicalId":339926,"journal":{"name":"34th Annual Frontiers in Education, 2004.

Electrical engineering and computer science at Oregon State University has worked in collaboration with university science and math education researchers to implement large-scale curriculum reform based on a platform for learning/spl trade/. To successfully approach such a large systemic problem and introduce major education reform, an approach called design research has been used. Design research involves a team of education designers that manage a series of iterative cycles of design, implementation, and evaluation. Each cycle provides the empirical evidence needed to improve instruction, and refine the education theory related to platforms for learning. The design research process has brought a much richer and expansive understanding of the platforms for learning concept and engineering education in general. In part concepts like cross-cutting competencies (which include enhancing community building, student innovation and design skills, depth, breadth and professionalism), educational hardware design, and horizontal and vertical inter-class connections have been better understood through the research. This paper summarizes the design research process as it is used at OSU to reform engineering education. Findings specific to a platform for learning and generally applicable to engineering education are discussed. Finally, implementation changes that resulted from the design research process are presented.","PeriodicalId":339926,"journal":{"name":"34th Annual Frontiers in Education, 2004.

To determine the change in understanding during the course, both problems are graded using a rubric to gage the levels of understanding relative to five tasks: 1) identify the likely failure location, 2) identify the different load types, 3) combine the effects of multiple loadings, 4) calculate the stresses within the structure, 5) calculate the safety factor. Results will also be compared to the previous semester (Fall 2003) where the same problem was given on the final exam but not discussed earlier in the course. A further objective of this work is to stimulate curiosity by challenging students to solve a combined statics and mechanics problem.","PeriodicalId":339926,"journal":{"name":"34th Annual Frontiers in Education, 2004.
