This miniworkshop focuses on diagramming as a problem solving tool. Unfortunately, many students enter engineering without valuing the use of diagrams in model-based reasoning. Too often, they see diagramming as something which is superfluous and disconnected from "real problem solving." Students often come to their first engineering course with a well-practiced strategy that uses a rote...
This panel will address the challenge of promoting dispositions towards and mastery of model-based reasoning and modeling practices. Free-body, circuit, and multi-unit process diagrams are fundamental engineering tools for transforming poorly articulated and ill-constrained problems into manageable, solvable problems. For engineers in industry or research, free-form sketches commonly inform back-of-the-envelope...
The main goal of this special session is to foster a continuing conversation within the FIE community about modelbased reasoning in general and the essential role of diagrams in engineering education in particular. During this session, small groups of participants will develop categorization schemes using a collection of student diagrams. Groups will share their categorization schemes and ideas through...
