proposing solutions to problems. Typically the list of action items is addressed during the following year(s). • Faculty meetings: The RBE faculty meets as a group every week during the academic year. A variety of issues are discussed, including research, ongoing and planned activities, staffing, new courses, and changes to regulations. • Faculty Evaluations: Every year each faculty member prepares an activity report about research, teaching and service for that year and delivers it to his/her Department Head, and subsequently the Provost, for their evaluation. The Department Head provides an evaluation of the faculty member, and discusses strengths, weaknesses and plans with them.4. Assessment

In addition, the fill-insheets have enabled differentiated instruction in the class room, by adding symbolicsolutions to challenge the advanced student, while helping the average and below averagestudent solve the basic problem using numbers. Aside from these an equal number ofproblems are given as homework which have varying degrees of fill-in to inculcate andtrain students in problem solving. Additionally, detailed solutions are made available toimprove problem solving skills, while teaching methodologies.

Each Fellow stands in a unique position as a kind of pivot pointamong high school and university educators, high school students, and the university researchenvironment. Effects of the experience, voiced through the mouths of the participants, rangefrom purposeful enthusiasm to the need for resolution. For most of the Fellows, STEP is an “eye-opener” into teaching, and most (67%) Fellows state that they want to teach at some level in thefuture. One Fellow states that STEP “help[s] me see and understand realities of teaching.” STEPhas an overall positive effect on the majority (70%) of Fellows based on the online survey asshown in Figure 4
