DDL: Designing a Positive Learning Experience in Engineering: Student Perceptions of an Online Thermodynamics Course

• In Event: Roundtables Thur2
  In Roundtable Session: DDL - Roundtables Thur2

Short Description

Online learning does not appear to be the common solution when approaching some core engineering courses. However, the growing need and resources for online engineering courses necessitates the development of online courses that can allow for the flexibility and convenience these distance learning experiences can offer. Within this session, learning experiences in a thermodynamics course will be relayed through student perceptions and responses through qualitative interviews. Discussion on effective practice and future implications will follow.
