Biography
Together with undergraduate and graduate students, Professor Loui conducts research in ethics in engineering and computing, and in the scholarship of teaching and learning. They have assessed the outcomes of ethics instruction and peer-led team learning, categorized students' misconceptions in digital logic, and demonstrated the effect of structured pairing in laboratories on students' confidence and attitudes. Currently they are investigating whether instruction in professional ethics promotes students' technical learning, determining the long-term effect of general education courses such as ECE 101, and describing how graduate students develop mentoring skills as they supervise undergraduate researchers.
