• W2742356561 abstract "Abstract Building an effective online thermodynamics course for undergraduate engineering students Background Online learning does not appear to be the common option when approaching some core engineering courses. However, the growing need for online engineering courses necessitates the development of online courses that can allow for the flexibility and convenience these distance learning experiences can offer, which also can help broaden the participation in engineering education. Thermodynamics is among the most difficult engineering subjects to teach, 1, 2 especially online, where instructors are unable to demonstrate the overwhelming number of equations and applications as they would in face-to-face lectures. 3,4. This paper describes the design and development of an undergraduate online thermodynamics class. It also reports the students’ learning experience with thermodynamics in an online environment, students’ feedback on the online course, and students’ responses to what worked and what didn’t work in this particular online course. Data Collection An online survey consisting of demographic questions as well as open-ended questions was administered to all students in two online thermodynamics classes in summer 2015 and 2016 respectively. The classes were taught by the same instructor. The study collected both quantitative and qualitative data. Quantitative data include students’ survey responses on demographic background, years of experiences in online learning, number of online courses taken, etc. Qualitative data include online course design and implementation factors and strategies contributing to student success in the course, as well as student satisfaction, and perspectives on the ease of online versus face-to-face courses. Students’ feedback and comments on the course design and structure were also solicited in the survey. Results This course was the first online engineering course for most of the participants. All participants (N=24) responded positively about their learning experience in their online thermodynamics class. Most participants would be willing to take another online engineering course. The most important factors contributing to students’ learning were the face-to-face meetings with the learning assistant (LA) and the instructor, the incorporation of multimedia presentations of course materials, and time management skills. The study provides a discipline–based example that is beneficial for online instructors. 5 It also provides insights regarding effective online pedagogy for teaching tough engineering subjects like thermodynamics.
