Engineering Mechanical - (56)Often it is difficult for freshman engineering students to conceptualize the professional roles of mechanical engineers and learn fundamental concepts vital to mastery of the mechanical engineering curriculum. This project creates and assesses freely-available, agent-monitored internet chat-based course materials for integrating computer-aided design, modeling, and manufacturing skills within a freshman mechanical engineering undergraduate course. These tutorials allow students to navigate complicated software interfaces, conceptualize what mechanical engineers do, and learn fundamental concepts through dynamic dialogues between tutorial agents and student groups. Additional chat-based tutorials will be developed as a unique, efficient outreach tool, allowing middle school students to become excited about engineering and other technical professions. These project tasks are structured to be the basis for long-term transformational changes in how we teach engineering.

工程机械-（56）通常是很难为新生工程专业的学生概念化机械工程师的专业角色，并学习基本概念至关重要的机械工程课程的掌握。 该项目创建和评估免费提供的、由代理人监控的基于互联网聊天的课程材料，用于将计算机辅助设计、建模和制造技能整合到新生机械工程本科课程中。这些教程允许学生浏览复杂的软件界面，概念化机械工程师的工作，并通过教程代理和学生团体之间的动态对话学习基本概念。额外的基于聊天的教程将被开发为一个独特的，有效的推广工具，让中学生对工程和其他技术专业感到兴奋。这些项目任务的结构是我们如何教工程的长期转型变化的基础。
