As the syllabus suggests, this course aims to“promote engineering humanities education across borders” for the engineering studentsacross the two universities. During the course period, for the purpose of fostering adialogue-based classroom, each NYCU student will be paired with a UST partner to conductinterviews, homework assignments and a collaborative research project. Four teachingformats were used to facilitate the course progress:1. Synchronous Lectures: Synchronous GC was hosted by two instructors from NYCU and UST

Students in Professor A’s Fall 2020 class hadexperienced less than one semester of online classes while students in their Fall 2022 class couldhave had several semesters of experience with virtual instruction. Professor A attributed thisincreased experience with virtual instruction with student habits, such as choosing not to turn inassignments, skipping class, and deliberately not showing up to exams. Professor A noted thattheir class syllabus is well-defined, yet they have noticed an increase in students’ failure to fulfillclass requirements. Beyond trends of decreasing attendance and student

Thestudy found that labor based grading was an effective way to reduce student anxiety, reduce academicintegrity issues, and improve student motivation.IntroductionThe COVID-19 pandemic resulted in rapid changes to many aspects of higher education in STEMincluding the delivery of material, assessment of work, and all communication moving online. Thesechanges upset the status quo and exposed problem areas in our traditional approaches to teaching and ledus to explore a method known as labor-based grading.

. Student responses to the teamwork reflection were encouraging,if not the grounds for statistically significant evidence that reflection supported progress throughTCs.There are a number of opportunities to improve this work as we continue. First, increasing theprominence of the TC in the syllabus/course and the grading weight of the assignment mightreduce the number of non-respondents on the reflections. Currently, the reflection is a smallportion of a much larger holistic grade, so there’s little apparent penalty for not putting effortinto completing it. Second, based on student misconceptions about what prototyping means, andthe lack of insight in the reflections, the prompt in support of the “a team can learn a lot from aprototype” TC needs to

Although much researchhas tested various teaching strategies and how course outcomes are associated with drop-out rate, little attention has been paid to using a bottom-up, student-centered, qualitativeapproach with a large sample to understand how to improve required CS courses andcurricula. In the present study, we investigated CS college students

When students post and reply to messages, and read the messages of their peers and give them feedback, this improves the quality of the learning environment dynamics and the richness of the content delivery.• Community Policies: These specify rules and standards of ethical behavior that must be followed. These should be shared with teachers and students at the start of the program. This helps to avoid confusion and inappropriate behavior. Web-based learning requires more internal self-regulation and external supervision. Community policies can provide a schema to help keep specific learning groups engaged in their online courses from beginning to end.In an educational context, the Activity model is a reminder that
