Special Session: Learning and Practice of Engineering Fundamental Principles for Long-Term Retention

摘要

This special session is an interactive experience for engineering educators to participate in learning activities for review and retention of engineering fundamental principles. It can often be a struggle to get students to recall concepts from previous courses, such as foundational physics and mathematical theory. Session leaders will describe how students learn and apply the fundamental principles in an integrated electrical, mechanical, and industrial engineering program with an entrepreneurial mindset. The use of active and collaborative learning techniques in this program make the newly acquired knowledge ”sticky,” so it is long-lasting and retrievable in the future. Participants will leave with resources to consider how they may incorporate these activities into their courses.
