Lecture1_CourseIntro.pptxFSE100: Introduction to Engineering
Course Introduction
1
In this course, it will be critical for you to learn how to effectively work in teams
Teamwork
2
Team-based Learning
We will be using an active learning pedagogy called Team Based Learning (TBL) in the lecture portion of the course
Flipped class room technique, we will have readiness assurance test (RAT) in class as well as applications (team assignments).
iRAT will be an individual multiple choice test
tRAT will be a team test
Applications are team assignments
To prepare the RAT, you need to complete the reading and homework assignment (using the reading guide) before lecture
Why Team-based Learning
No boring lecture (except today)
Teams perform better than individuals
99.95% of the teams have outperformed their best member by an average of nearly 14%
That’s why in engineering you will work in teams
In TBL the vast majority of class time is used for team assignments that focus on using course content instead of just absorbing passively the content
Working in a team will increase your communication skills, something companies nowadays require
Mock iRAT (NOT GRADED)
Please put away all reading materials (except your homework, today you can use the reading) and wait for instructions
Please open envelope and distribute one Readiness Assurance Test sheet per person
One bubble sheet per person
You have 10 minutes to solve the Readiness Assurance Test
Mark your answers on the bubble sheet NOT on the Readiness Assurance Test handout
Turn in iRAT
Make sure your name is on the bubble sheet
Make sure you write and fill in the bubbles for your Student ID (the last 5 digits of your ASU ID)
Keep Readiness Assurance Test sheets
Turn in your bubble sheets to exchange for the scratch off sheet
Mock tRAT (NOT GRADED)
Work as a team
Use the scratch off sheet to answer the Readiness Assurance Test questions
Make sure the whole team decides on an answer before you scratch
You have up to 10 minutes to answer all questions
Assign points:
1st scratch gave correct answer – 4 points
2nd scratch gave correct answer – 2 points
3rd scratch gave correct answer – 1 point
Write your Team number in the “Name” field and Test # (see white board)
In the “Total” field sum up your total score
Turn in tRAT
Let’s see the tRAT result
Use the Appeal Form if needed
Any questions on the test?
Turn in Everything
Please place the followings in envelope and turn it in
All unmarked question sheets (if not returned, your team will get zero on tRAT)
All bubble sheets
Scratch off sheet
Application
Discuss the application question within your team and decide on an answer
You have 3 minutes
Appoint one team member who will present your answer when I ask you to report your answer
Write your choice of A through D on a piece of paper or on your phone (large letter so I can see it)
You can use the textbook and your notes
Question

FSE100 Learning Outcomes
Students will work effectively as part of a design team to develop and demonstrate team norms and critique team effectiveness through peer evaluation.
Students will apply the steps of the engineering design process based on the analysis of customer needs to design, build, and test a physical prototype.
Students will apply customer focused design and the entrepreneurial mindset to create and evaluate design prototypes that will solve problems.
FSE100 Learning Outcomes
Students will use and select appropriate tools and technical skills to collect and analyze data from a variety of sources, to describe and predict the behavior of designs, and to justify design decisions based on appropriate models.
Students will write technical project reports and give oral/multimedia presentations about their designs which includes addressing the economic and societal value of those designs.
Students will apply project management skills such as scheduling, budgeting, and resource management to an engineering design.
FSE100 Learning Outcomes
Students will be able to identify their motivations, strengths, and contributions within the field of engineering and critique their own skills and understanding through self reflection.
