Reforming Undergraduate Engineering Education Using an Integrated Platform for Learning

提案编号：0230679主要赞助商：菲兹，Terriinstitution名称：俄勒冈州州立大学标题：使用综合学习平台改革本科工程教育摘要规划拨款将用于开发俄勒冈州州立大学的电子和计算机工程以及机械工程的新课程。一个学习平台被用来整合课程。 从大一开始，学生在平台上构建（在这种情况下，我们称之为TekBots的机器人），以便学科领域相互连接，学生有一个类似于实践工程师在其专业中经历的学习环境。当学生在整个课程中学习课程时，他们将自己的知识应用到这个平台上，使其成为他们所学知识的代表，以及他们所学的各种主题是如何连接的。开发这门课程的一个关键部分也是加强业主定义的目标和成果，如工程和技术认证委员会（ABET）标准。 拟议的课程将专门加强这些成果，并将确定学习课程平台是否以及如何改善这些成果。

PROPOSAL NO.: 0230679PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR: Fiez, TerriINSTITUTION NAME: Oregon State UniversityTITLE: Reforming Undergraduate Engineering Education Using an Integrated Platform for LearningAbstractThe planning grant will be used to develop new curricula for both Electrical and Computer Engineering and Mechanical Engineering at Oregon State University. A platform for learning is used to integrate the curriculum.. Beginning in the freshman year, students build on the platform (in this case a robot we call TekBots) so that subject areas become connected and students have a context for their learning similar to what practicing engineers experience in their profession. As students take courses throughout the program, they apply their knowledge to this platform so that it becomes a representation of what they have learned and how the various topics they have learned are connected. A key part of developing this curriculum is also enhancing stakeholder-defined goals and outcomes such as those in the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) criteria. The proposed curriculum will be designed to specifically enhance these outcomes and, the will determine if and how much the platform for learning curriculum improves each of these outcomes.
