Breen, Kimberly C.; Dotson, Mary Elizabeth; Madonna, Megan C.; Asturias, Gabriela; Pena, Daniela Mariucci; Springate, Hope; Alvarez, Valentina; Ramanujam, Nimmi – Advances in Engineering Education, 2023
Background: Through the human-centered design process (HCD), students, referred to as learners, can use a personal lens to contextualize engineering concepts and solve real-world problems (Goldman and Kabayadondo 2016). The Ignite program, created by the Center for Global Women's Health Technologies (GWHT) at Duke University, integrates the HCD…

Bullard, Lisa G.; Melvin, Adam T. – Advances in Engineering Education, 2011
We have developed an instructional video that uses role-play to illustrate the differences between acceptable behavior and cheating on assignments. Since we began showing it in an introductory chemical engineering course, the average number of confirmed instances of cheating decreased slightly, but the average percentage of students who were…

Chaturvedi, Sushil; Prabhakaran, Ramamurthy; Yoon, Jaewan; Abdel-Salam, Tarek – Advances in Engineering Education, 2011
A novel application of web-based virtual laboratories to prepare students for physical experiments is explored in some detail. The pedagogy of supplementing physical laboratory with web-based virtual laboratories is implemented by developing a web-based tool, designated in this work as "eLIVE", an acronym for Engineering Laboratory…
