Outcome b can be an indirectconsequence that is likely to occur when students start seeing the whys behind the fundamentaltopics. The outcome d is seen when students spend time researching the topic on their own.In contrast to PBL, deductive

In those essays,student wrote about which engineering discipline they plan to pursue, about challenges facedduring the semester, and about how their first semester affected their interest in pursuingengineering. Student submitted reflective essays at the middle and at the end of the semester.Results Page 23.1045.3First Year Engineering Program: All

This means that students entering this course mayhave little exposure to ethics or a general background of ethics, without specifically addressingengineering or sustainability.

In EBSD, thetop atomic layers of a highly polished material diffract the incident electron beam. As intransmission electron microscopy, the resulting electron diffraction pattern at any point isuniquely determined by the crystal structure that the beam is incident upon. Computerizedmethods allow the patterns to be easily indexed to the corresponding

was, “my way of preparing for exams has worked wellall these years, I don’t need to change it now”.9 Prerequisite knowledge is also a factor. Overthe last few years the incoming freshmen have shown more proficiency with Excel® than in thepast, so they do not perceive the Excel® exercises to be as challenging as previously. The ENGR10 team plans to revise the Excel® content to better match the skills of current incoming students.Figure 4, taken from the 2002 study9, summarizes the responses from the same survey, with oneexception. The current course does not use MATLAB® but instead requires students to do 3Dsolid modeling using SolidWorks®, so the 2002 question about understanding of MATLAB® wasreplaced with a question about understanding of

Students with high self-efficacy use more cognitive andmetacognitive strategies as well as self-regulatory strategies such as planning, monitoring, andregulating 11. Achievement motivation, which encompasses students’ attitudes about theirabilities and tasks, can elucidate student choices related to persistence in engineering, solvingproblems, and the value of tasks encountered in an engineering environment 12. Achievementmotivation serves as a useful framework for the examination of research questions related tostudents’ attitudes about pursuing engineering, and how these factors affect students’ learningexperiences.Phase 1: Identifying Relevant Factors

She is not sure how supportive Dr. Hernandez will be since she is already committed to a number of other projects, so she is trying to proceed cautiously and deliberately to convince him that she is capable of handling the extra work. In order to broach the topic with him, she uses the following plan to devise her approach…This particular communication interaction scenario pertains to multiple themes.

Table 1 shows a summaryof one-year and two-year persistence rates of students by ethnicity. Among Hispanic students theone-year persistence rate was 59.4%, and the two-year persistence rate was 28.8%.

The faculty should carefully explain the benefits of the flippedapproach to the class so that the students buy into the method. Without some salesmanship,students are likely to reject the approach just because it is different.Do Not Over-Flip. A flipped classroom is more a time management strategy than a pedagogicalapproach. The improved time management facilitates better pedagogy, but be mindful of thedifferences. Specifically, note that it is not essential for everything in the course to be “flipped.”It does not mean that you cannot ever deliver a traditional lecture or assign traditionalhomework.
