Contribution: This study aimed to improve understanding of context-based affordances and barriers to adoption of evidence-based instructional practices (EBIPs) among faculty in electrical and computer engineering (ECE). Context-based influences, including motives, constraints, and feedback mechanisms impacting EBIP adoption across six ECE faculty…

DELPHI, a time-sharing system developed specifically for introducing engineering students to sound programing principles and practice, is described in terms of user environment, languages, system architecture, and operation. (DT)

Describes four years experience at Colorado State University with courses introducing high school students to engineering, including a Fortran IV computer programming course in which tapings of actual campus classroom sessions, supplemented with homework assignments, class roles, quizzes, and examinations were used. Benefits of the transitional…

This document reviews the role of computer graphics in an engineering curriculum, provides a survey of computer graphics in engineering education, and presents the outline of a one semester engineering computer graphics course. Example exercises and tests are included. Course topics include labeling, graph plotting, perspective view generation,…

This is a self-study manual designed for freshman or sophomore engineering students who have interest in the organizational and operational concepts of the digital computer, but little or no experience with such computers. The manual gives an introduction to a general purpose minicomputer, Digital Equipments Corporation's PDP-8. (MK)
