This is a Work-in-Progress paper that will explore how concept maps can be utilized to make engineering curricula, pedagogy, and assessment more inclusive. Making engineering more inclusive is one method in increasing the representation of women, underrepresented minority (URM) students, and underserved populations in an engineering program. The paper will show how inclusive curriculum, pedagogy and...
This paper presents a new concept mapping approach, called “Tree of Dynamics,” to enhance students' perception (intuitive cognition) of the relationships among fundamental concepts in an introductory engineering dynamics course. In this approach, the relationships among concepts are represented by tree structures including roots, trunks, branches, leaves, and fruits, rather than by using linking words...
Concept mapping has been traditionally used as a tool for active learning, student's learning assessment and evaluation. In an attempt to achieve student learning, curricula development and assessment have taken new and diverse approaches. Concept mapping is one novel way for curricula development and validation of program outcomes and their linkages with required skills and competencies' levels....
Concept mapping is not necessarily new. However, concept mapping has yet to be adapted to teaching automotive technology management (ATM) at Indiana State University. In the realm of ATM, multiple-choice tests are the mainstay of certification exams so often required by employers. Further it is generally accepted that practice on similar instruments will improve the scores on certification exams....
