DMACC has identified pre-engineering student cohorts and created a four-semester learning community. Through a new peer mentor program, there is enhanced peermentor relationship building with pre-engineering students. Peer mentors are actively involvedwith transfer student activities and events. Partnerships have developed with various transferrecruitment activities, including the NSF S-STEM project, academic departments, the Programfor Women in Science and Engineering, and the Office of Community College Research andPolicy.The Learning Village Team has customized the ISU’s Admissions

With oversight, guidance and assessment from the instructors, one teaching assistant wasdedicated to teach each of the 7 laboratories for the entire semester. Each TA was responsiblefor developing the laboratory procedures, administering a pre-laboratory quiz, providing the pre-laboratory instructions and monitoring the progress of the students during the laboratory. Theinstructors and the TA‟s all had office hours during the week to assist the students withquestions. All materials for all labs were available via a dedicated BlackBoard internet site, andstudents were able to use this online site to communicate with labmates, instructors and TA‟s,check their grades, and upload their assignments. All students within a section met as a class

[The definition of “technologically literate” herelikely entails being literate to some degree in the S, M and T&E.] Leaving the teachingeffectiveness benefits aside, a population of technologically literate K-5 teachers, and Page 15.1194.2presumably their K-5(8) students, should enable technological literacy instruments to bebetter designed and calibrated.

Type Indicator (MBTI) is linked to personality preferences, as shownin Table 1. MBTI summarizes preferences in terms of four categories that represent howan individual processes and evaluates information. The first category describes how aperson interacts with his or her environment. People who take initiative and gain energyfrom interactions are known as Extroverts (E). Introverts (I) on the other hand prefermore of a relatively passive role and gain energy internally. The second categorydescribes how a person processes information. A person who relies on her senses isreferred to as a Sensor (S), while a person who seeks to interpret and gain insight frominformation is called an iNtuitor (N).

After a second period of growth in the mid-80s, 42,637 research doctorates wereawarded by 1986. From 1998-2002, the number of doctorates awarded each year generallydeclined and reached a low point in 2002.By 2006, an all-time high number of doctorates was awarded in the U.S.5 In science andengineering (S&E) fields, this growth was due in large part to degrees awarded to internationalstudents, many who came to the U.S. to study following World War II6. In 2006, U.S. citizensreceived 63% of all research and 56% of S&E doctorates. The percentage of U.S. citizens whoearned a doctorate in engineering was the lowest with
