A National Model For Engineering Mathematics Education

Abstract

He is a Co-PI on WSU's National Model for Engineering Mathematics Education, and has also led an NSF supported research project to develop the nation's first undergraduate curriculum in bioinformatics.

An Examination Of Engineering Mathematics Courses

“…However, several papers provide guidance in structuring research questions and research hypotheses related to content investigation. These papers may provide a context for future changes, Klingbeil et al 7 studied an alternative curricular approach based on a funded NSF project. This curricular restructuring focused on preparation for topics in the calculus sequence.…”

An Application-Oriented Course to Improve Student Performance in Mathematics Courses

“…WSU has developed a model with National Science Foundation (NSF) funding to increase student retention and motivation. This model is currently being tested at or has fully been adopted in 40+ engineering schools nationwide [3][4]. The idea is to teach mathematics to incoming first-year students using an application-oriented, hands-on introductory course.…”

The Wright State Model for Engineering Mathematics Education: Highlights from a CCLI Phase 3 Initiative, Volume 2

“…The Wright State model was first implemented in Fall of 2004, and its effect on student retention, motivation and success in engineering has since been widely reported [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23] . The recent introduction of EGR 100/199 for initially underprepared students has further strengthened the approach, and has made the core engineering curriculum immediately accessible to roughly 80% of incoming engineering students at Wright State University.…”
