. Codersindependently and blindly identified examples of explicit mathematics integration. Theindependent coding of these examples by two researchers was then compared with what we hadscored for the training, planning, activities and assessments for each curriculum. This provided ameans of creating an inter-rater reliability measure. Examples where there were opportunities forintegration with mathematics concepts, but no evidence of explicit integration were identifiedseparately. In our discussion, we review some of these examples and point out how an implicitlyembedded example can be modified slightly to include explicit integration of math andengineering concepts.ResultsOverall, we found that the explicit integration of math concepts with regards to

and the technical currency of academic programs. Faculty professionaldevelopment activities and technical currency play an important role in promotingstudent learning and success. Especially for non-research (purely teaching) institutionsthat offer technology driven programs, one of the most important factors determiningstudent success is the professional and technical currency of faculty members. The nature, demands, and vocabulary of scholarship are also evolving.
