Abstract:Abstract:The overall aim of this research is to promote engineering graduate success in complex, interdisciplinary environments relevant to sustainability. In this study, two unique engineering courses were compared in terms of individual student responses to multiple-choice questions before and after in-class online research, in addition to active discussions. The two courses, both focused on "sustainable energy," were a 90-student 1 st year science-core course with primarily non-science majors, and a 33-stud… Show more
“…The intervention was developed and taught by a team of two chemical and biological engineering faculty members at Montana State University. Detail on the development and implementation of the intervention has been published [27], [28]. The intervention was taught on the same day in all three classes (in October 2017 approximately six weeks into the semester).…”
