Students come to universities with different goal orientations and therefore have different needs. Identifying varying orientation approaches, by highlighting differentiating traits, is a necessary step for developing a curriculum that will challenge and develop all students. This paper focuses specifically on three goal orientations which are performance approach, performance avoid, and mastery approach. This study explored these orientations using a mixed methods approach of quantitative surveys of seventeen students followed by qualitative interviews of five students. The Pittsburgh Freshman Engineering Survey was selected as the survey tool, and questions demonstrating qualities of different goal orientations were identified. The survey results identified the primary goal orientation for each student. The students with the strongest orientation in each category were identified, and some of these were subsequently interviewed. From the interview summaries and literature research, recommendations were developed for meeting the needs of the three goal orientations. While the recommendations specifically target the junior level Energy Lab at our university, they can be applied much more broadly.
进入大学的学生有不同的目标取向,因此有不同的需求。通过突出不同的特点,确定不同的定向方法,是开发一个能够挑战和发展所有学生的课程的必要步骤。本文着重研究了绩效取向、绩效回避取向和掌握取向这三种目标取向。本研究采用混合方法对17名学生进行定量调查,然后对5名学生进行定性访谈。选择匹兹堡大学新生工程调查作为调查工具,并确定了显示不同目标取向品质的问题。调查结果确定了每个学生的主要目标取向。在每个类别中具有最强取向的学生被识别出来,随后对其中一些学生进行了采访。通过访谈总结和文献研究,提出了满足三个目标导向需求的建议。虽然这些建议专门针对我们大学的初级能源实验室,但它们可以更广泛地应用。

Four-year universities exhibit very low two-year retention within engineering fields. Community colleges represent an attractive source to replace those cohort losses with upper division transfer students. The community college system, however, is often used inefficiently by those students, who often find that they have much longer courses of study remaining after they arrive at a university to study engineering. Summer internships that expose community college students to the university environment and to engineering design processes are a valuable tool to ease student transition. Distance education offerings of introductory engineering courses improve curriculum efficiency. Increased student awareness and communication with university faculty and specialized advisors will improve student recruiting and retention through this valuable state resource.
四年制大学在工程领域的两年保留率非常低。社区大学是一个有吸引力的来源,可以用高年级的转校生来取代那些流失的学生。然而,这些学生往往没有有效地利用社区学院制度,他们常常发现,在进入大学学习工程学之后,他们还有更长的课程要学习。暑期实习让社区大学的学生接触到大学环境和工程设计过程,这是一个很有价值的工具,可以帮助学生顺利过渡。工程导论课程的远程教学提高了课程效率。通过这一宝贵的国家资源,提高学生的意识和与大学教师和专业顾问的沟通将提高学生的招生和留校率。

Building upon of a set of innovative hands-on laboratory courses developed at Virginia Tech (VT) known as Lab-in-a-Box (LiaB), LiaB is now being expanded to Virginia Community Colleges (VCCS) where faculty from VT and the VCCS are working to incorporate LiaB into the engineering and engineering technology programs. As implemented at VT, the students design, build, and test at home various d.c. and a.c. circuits using an inexpensive electronics and demonstrate the operation of these circuits in an open classroom environment. LiaB covers topics ranging from simple resistive circuits to filters and provides students a physical representation of models created in various circuit modeling software programs. Modifications to the way in which the students are engaged in the LiaB experiments have been instituted at three VCCS community colleges to tailor the laboratory experience to instructional environment at each school. Learning materials are under development, to support students to achieve a deeper depth of learning of the underlying circuit theory. Non-traditional dissemination avenues, such as podcasts and Flash tutorials, are being considered as a means to engage students in the learning process. Evaluation of the courses and learning materials and assessment of the learning outcomes at VT and at the three VCCS has recently begun.
在弗吉尼亚理工大学(VT)开发的一套创新实践实验课程的基础上,被称为Lab-in-a-Box (LiaB), LiaB现在扩展到弗吉尼亚社区学院(VCCS),弗吉尼亚社区学院和VCCS的教师正在努力将LiaB纳入工程和工程技术课程。在VT中,学生们使用便宜的电子设备在家里设计、建造和测试各种直流和交流电路,并在开放的教室环境中演示这些电路的操作。LiaB涵盖了从简单的电阻电路到滤波器的主题,并为学生提供了在各种电路建模软件程序中创建的模型的物理表示。三所VCCS社区学院对学生参与LiaB实验的方式进行了修改,以使实验室体验适应每所学校的教学环境。学习材料正在开发中,以支持学生实现更深层次的基础电路理论的学习。非传统的传播途径,如播客和Flash教程,正在考虑作为一种手段,使学生参与到学习过程中来。VT和三个VCCS的课程和学习材料的评估和学习成果的评估最近已经开始。

Assessment management in large courses 大型课程的考核管理
Pub Date : 2009-10-18 DOI: 10.1109/FIE.2009.5350575
J. Greenslade
When large engineering courses assess work marked by several markers, issues of consistency often arise. Data was collected from a first year Mathematical Modeling course of 467 students, where 18 markers were employed to mark the 10 weekly assignments. Control scripts were also marked by the lecturer and compared with the results from each marker. An acceptable level of variability was established by correlating the assignment data with final examination marks for each student group. The resulting thresholds will, in future, be used to quickly identify markers who may need additional training or guidance. Lecturers were also asked to mark a small number of student scripts to act as exemplars for the markers. This approach gave the lecturer a previously unavailable opportunity to trial and modify the marking schedule before it was given to the markers. The results of this study have lead to improvements in the way markers are supported and monitored within the local engineering department, but could also be of relevance to other departments and disciplines. The engagement of lecturers in creating exemplar marked assignments has also proved an excellent opportunity to increase the engagement of teaching staff with the assessment process and hence the student learning experience.
当大型工程课程评估由几个标记的作业时,一致性问题经常出现。数据收集自一年级数学建模课程的467名学生,其中18名学生被用于标记10个每周作业。对照脚本也由讲师标记,并与每个标记的结果进行比较。通过将作业数据与每个学生组的期末考试分数相关联,建立了可接受的可变性水平。由此产生的阈值将来将用于快速识别可能需要额外培训或指导的标记。讲师还被要求标记一小部分学生的剧本,作为标记者的范例。这种方法给了讲师一个以前无法获得的机会,可以在阅卷前试用和修改阅卷时间表。这项研究的结果已经导致了当地工程部门支持和监控标记的方式的改进,但也可能与其他部门和学科相关。讲师参与创建范例标记作业也被证明是一个极好的机会,可以增加教学人员对评估过程的参与,从而提高学生的学习体验。

Physics education research and the development of “inquiry” teaching methods over the last 20 years have, by all measures, significantly reduced misconceptions and improved student understanding in physics. But adoption of these methods in upper division science and engineering courses has been slow. This paper describes the modification of an electronics/circuits course designed for physics majors to determine whether the benefits of the inquiry method can be extended to upper level circuits/electronics courses. Formative and summative assessments and methods for evaluation of student misconceptions and understanding including the application of a standardized electric circuit concept inventory instrument are described. The results suggest that inquiry teaching methods implemented in upper level university courses contribute significantly to extinguishing common misconceptions and improving long-term understanding of the material. With so much to be gained it is time for the engineering education community to embrace these concepts and implement the fruits of physics education research for the benefit of our students and the world community.
在过去的20年里,物理教育研究和“探究式”教学方法的发展,从各个方面来看,都大大减少了误解,提高了学生对物理的理解。但这些方法在高年级理工科课程中的应用进展缓慢。本文描述了一门专为物理专业设计的电子/电路课程的修改,以确定探究方法的好处是否可以扩展到高级电路/电子课程。描述了形成性和总结性评估以及评估学生误解和理解的方法,包括标准化电路概念清单工具的应用。结果表明,研究性教学方法在高级大学课程中实施,有助于消除常见的误解,提高对材料的长期理解。有了这么多的收获,现在是时候让工程教育界接受这些概念,并实施物理教育研究的成果,以造福我们的学生和世界社会。

Preparing engineers for a global world: identifying and teaching strategies for sensemaking and creating new practices 准备工程师为全球世界:识别和教学策略的意义和创造新的做法

In this paper I identify two shortcomings of current research on global engineering and provide solutions that can overcome them. I argue that current research on global engineering 1) lacks an in-depth understanding of engineering work practices and 2) suffers from challenges in translating findings into suitable curricula. This negatively impacts both what we know about how engineers work and how we can prepare future engineers for participation in the global workplace. I draw on two sources, literature from organization science and a primary field study of engineering practitioners, to identify three strategies useful for working successfully in global settings: 1) bridging perspectives across boundaries, 2) creating a common identity, and 3) constructing boundary-spanning socio-technical practices. Finally, I draw on recent research on teaching about complexity to discuss how situated interpretation of actual field data - in the form of cases - can be used as a teaching aid and allow students to develop generalized models applicable to other situations.
在本文中,我指出了当前全球工程研究的两个缺点,并提供了可以克服它们的解决方案。我认为,目前关于全球工程的研究1)缺乏对工程工作实践的深入理解,2)在将研究结果转化为合适的课程方面面临挑战。这对我们了解工程师是如何工作的,以及我们如何培养未来的工程师参与全球工作场所产生了负面影响。我借鉴了两个来源,来自组织科学的文献和对工程实践者的初步实地研究,以确定在全球环境中成功工作的三种策略:1)跨越边界的桥梁观点,2)创造共同的身份,3)构建跨越边界的社会技术实践。最后,我借鉴了最近关于复杂性教学的研究,讨论了如何将实际现场数据的情境解释(以案例的形式)用作教学辅助工具,并允许学生开发适用于其他情况的广义模型。

The paper describes a new approach to Computer Engineering curriculum design which has been made in Engineering Faculty of Dokuz Eylul University of Izmir, Turkey. This approach is based on a Module-Based Active Learning model. Knowledge units of introductory level are packed into modules each with duration of 5 weeks. All theoretical knowledge in the modules are connected into a concept map which shows the integration of knowledge inside the module. During the module study students have to implement a project which is a core of a module. This approach allows us to include the engineering design from the very beginning of education. Preliminary assessment shows the increasing level of self-confidence and satisfaction among students and instructors.

Teaching computer and information literacy subjects to students with diverse backgrounds is an instructional challenge. This study aims to identify the students' attitudes towards a first year computer and information literacy course. Several factors such as student gender and student's department have been taken into consideration in order to understand the effects of the homogeneity of the classes in learning. Students' final term grades have been used to discern the factors that are effective in learning. This research study aimed to explore if the students with similar backgrounds, i.e. students who study in the same department or faculty, would work well together, would learn from each other and would be more successful and the course objectives would be more effectively met when compared to mixed classes.
向不同背景的学生教授计算机和信息素养课程是一项教学挑战。本研究旨在了解学生对第一年计算机与信息素养课程的态度。为了了解班级同质性对学习的影响,考虑了学生性别和学生所在院系等几个因素。学生的期末成绩已经被用来辨别有效学习的因素。本研究旨在探讨具有相似背景的学生,即在同一系或学院学习的学生,与混合班相比,是否能够很好地合作,相互学习,更成功,更有效地实现课程目标。

This research study aimed to explore if the students with similar backgrounds, i.e. students who study in the same department or faculty, would work well together, would learn from each other and would be more successful and the course objectives would be more effectively met when compared to mixed classes.","PeriodicalId":129330,"journal":{"name":"2009 39th IEEE Frontiers in Education Conference","volume":"8 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":"126642566","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}

Energy education programs are making their way into today's K-12 classroom. Effective programs that improve energy literacy will help draw students toward further studies and careers in the growing fields of energy-related engineering, science, and technology, and will prepare all students to interpret energy issues and make sound choices as they become adults. This work evaluates different types of educational experiences in terms of their ability to improve students' energy literacy. Study participants are exposed to a variety of classroom experiences, with respect to rigorous and relevant teaching strategies and the approach to covering energy issues. The analysis uses a triangulated, mixed-methods design, including a pre/post quantitative survey in addition to post-program questionnaires that provide a deeper understanding of the students' perceptions of the impact their education has had on their energy-related knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors.
