RIGEE: Progressive Learning Platform for Computer Engineering

这项工程教育研究启动助学金的长期愿景是通过围绕精心设计的学习平台建立计算机工程课程来改变计算机工程的教学方式。这个工程教育项目涉及来自计算机工程、英语系和教育学院的研究和教师合作人员。它的目的是在各种计算机工程课程中引入学习平台系统，并进行定性和定量研究，以衡量对学生学习的影响。该项目将产生关于学生如何在实践社区中学习、保持和传递工程概念的新知识。它还将测试学生是否？固定的思维可以转变为成长的思维。这个研究启动项目将为PI提供一个工具，通过众所周知的框架和评估模型来探索PLP？S对学生学习的影响。这将对PI和他的研究生产生重大影响，因为他们将学习教育中定量和定性研究的错综复杂的内容。本科生将通过精心设计的教育工具受益。将形成合作关系，从而形成未来的项目，在这些项目中，来自社会科学和教育科学的专家将与工程学院合作，对学生的学习进行严格的研究。

The long-term vision for this Research Initiation Grant in Engineering Education is to transform the way computer engineering is taught by establishing the computer engineering curriculum around a carefully designed learning platform. This engineering education project involves research and faculty collaborators from Computer Engineering, the English Department, and the College of Education. It aims to introduce the learning platform system in various computer engineering courses and perform qualitative and quantitative studies to gauge the impact on student learning. The project will generate new knowledge on how students learn, retain, and transfer engineering concepts in a community of practice. It will also test whether students? fixed mindsets can be changed to growth mindsets.This research initiation project will provide a vehicle for the PI to explore PLP?s impact on student learning through well-known frameworks and assessment models. The impact on the PI and his graduate students will be significant, as they will learn the intricacies of quantitative and qualitative research in education. Undergraduate students will benefit through a well-designed educational tool. Collaborations will be formed that will lead to future projects where experts from the social and educational sciences will work with engineering faculty to perform rigorous research on student learning.
