SUMMARY:Engineering Education Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:Engineering\, science\, and math courses have traditionally bee
 n taught as isolated subjects in introductory undergraduate courses. This 
 has often led to student being unable to apply their learning in new conte
 xt\, which requires reteaching of fundamental knowledge and skills in subs
 equent upper-level courses. Traditional educational models also require st
 udents to complete theoretical coursework before engaging in authentic and
  real-world problem-solving tasks. At Purdue University my research lab in
  conjunction with SCALE has redesigned the introductory engineering course
 s to include microelectronics as a way to introduce systems thinking\, eng
 ineering design\, and coding. Within an embodied learning framework\, the 
 integration of hands-on applied learning grounds computational and systems
  thinking in experience that can facilitate transfer. The results have lar
 gely been positive\, with gains in student interest\, motivation\, learnin
 g\, and transfer. However\, many challenges have arisen that are important
  to consider when integrating new ways of thinking into existing courses. 
 Results and lessons learned will be shared.
