Castles, R. T.; Zephirin, T.; Lohani, V. K.; Kachroo, P. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2010
Since 2005, the first-year engineering program at Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, has been significantly restructured to include more hands-on learning. A major grant (2004-2009) under the department level reform (DLR) program of the National Science Foundation (NSF) facilitated this restructuring. A number of hands-on learning modules were developed…
