The Distinguished Lecture Series spanned subjects from manufacturing innovation to the Internet of Things. Karl Reid, the newly appointed executive director of the National Society of Black Engineers, discussed creating an ecosystem of achievement for college success. In keeping with ASEE’s Year of Action on Diversity, Alice Merner Agogino, the Roscoe and Elizabeth Hughs Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of California, Berkeley, discussed the recent National Academies report on the career choices of women engineers.

Manufacturing innovations, including industry-university partnerships such as the National Network for Manufacturing Innovations, was the subject of “Unifying the Enablers for Innovation and the Talent for Making Value for America.” The panel. moderated by outgoing ASEE Board member C. Diane Matt and Carrie Houtman, featured S. Jack Hu, interim vice president for research at the University of Michigan; Mark J. Shuart, R&D facilities program manager for the Advanced Manufacturing Office, Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, at the U.S. Department of Energy; Kate S. Whitefoot, senior program officer and the Robert A. Pritzker fellow at the National Academy of Engineering; and Gerould Young, Director of Advanced Manufacturing & Materials at Boeing. In Power to the People: Engineering Education and Energy Poverty Alleviation, Henry Louie, associate professor of electrical and computer engineering at Seattle University and member of the Governing Board of the IEEE Power & Energy Society, used experiences in electrification projects in Kenya and elsewhere to show the “double opportunity” of alleviating energy poverty while tapping the interest of today’s globally conscience generation of students. In “A Framework for Catalyzing Change in Engineering Education,” delivered in the same session, Susan Elrod, interim provost and vice president for academic affairs at Chico State University, discussed campus case studies and the reform process embodied in Guide to Systemic Institutional Change in STEM Education that was developed in a project funded by the W.M. Keck Foundation through Project Kaleidoscope at the Association of American Colleges & Universities. Participants applied some of the Guide’s tools and developed the outline of a plan for change on their own campuses.

The meteoric growth of the Internet of Things (IoT), with billions of connected products worldwide, hinges on a crucial ingredient: education, argued Parametric Technology Corp.’s John Stuart, senior vice president for global academic programs and Alister Fraser, senior manager of education partner programs for the Americas, in this sponsored session. Their provocative lecture, The Internet of Things: A Smart Connected Crisis? described how the distributed global design process and embedded software has meant that an understanding of smart, connected product development has become a necessary skill for graduates, and they demonstrated how to leverage a free classroom IoT tookit that lets students design and build monitoring and control applications. In the Internet for Everyone and Everything, Dave Wilson, director of academic programs for National Instruments, sponsor of the session, explored the evolution of system design as a new discipline and how applying traditional “siloed” design approaches to meet fifth generation (5G) challenges could, in fact, be the bottleneck preventing a new network vision.

The 2014 best PIC and Zone paper presentations spanned a wide array of topics, including interactive virtual thermodynamics labs, promoting student creativity through problem-based learning, and perspectives on failure in elementary classrooms.

A flurry of hands-on activities, teaching tips, and great conversations animated the day’s workshops, International Forum, and social events.

A distinguished group of scholars, including Wickenden Award winner P.K. Imbrie from Texas A&M, discussed the pedagogy, practice, and assessment of inverted classrooms. Engineering ethics was the topic of two workshops, while a session on improving first-year engineering student retention and success, particularly of those with poor preparation, ranged from hands-on labs to advising. The challenge of engaging diverse students touched on instructional modifications gleaned from research in more than 300 classrooms. Vanderbilt’s Stacy Klein-Gardner – chair of ASEE’s K-12 and Pre-college Division – and Cheryl Farmer of the University of Texas, Austin’s UTeachEngineering program discussed how to incorporate the Next Generation Science Standards in their workshop on preparing K-12 educators to instill engineering habits of mind. The I-Corps for Learning afternoon workshop drew a number of engineering educators to learn from NSF’s pilot teams about an intensive, 8-week program aimed at fostering an entrepreneurial mindset and taking innovation to scale.

The International Forum kicked off with a keynote address, sponsored by the Boeing Company, by Bill Lyons, director for global research and development strategy at Boeing Research & Technology, and Rovani Sigamoney, engineering program specialist at UNESCO. Partner-organization plenaries discussed the Indo-U.S. Collaboration for Engineering Education (IUCEE), outcomes-based education and lifelong learning in India; the International Association for Continuing Engineering Education (IACEE); and engineering education and faculty development in Russia.
