. These portfolios are gauged, graded, evaluated and assessed using avariety of rubrics and assessment tools. The author has previously presented some ofthese results in a form at the 114th ASEE Annual Conference in Honolulu, Hawaii. The author plans to generate and utilize a similar rubric for purposes ofassessment. Furthermore, it should be recognized that each topic or subject matter may bedifferent and the difference may be huge and significant. Each instructor’s delivery styleis different and one may even arrive at two different sets of data for the same subject andtopic when two different instructors are involved (Narayanan, 2007).

Whether or not they learn the material better, this method provides them additionalopportunities to practice assessing their own abilities, which is a practical skill that is oftenoverlooked in engineering education.AcknowledgmentsThe author thanks Gigi Yuen-Reed, Ismet Handzic, and Samuel McAmis for their insights andfeedback.References1.

φ∗ created by the solar tracking algorithm, respectively, for a given time.The output of this reference generator are the reference coordinates of β ∗ and φ∗ mapped onto twoseparate Cartesian plans for tracking of the sun. The resulting reference coordinates take the formr = [w1 w2 w3 w4 ] , where w1 and w2 are the coordinates for the zenith angle β and w3 andw4 are the coordinates for the azimuth angle φ, for the system to track. Several issues have to be addressed during the design of the controller. The controller has todecide the most efficient path to reach the target angles and switch direction when needed. How-ever, the system is susceptible to becoming trapped in decision conflict regions when perturbationsare introduced, thus

The students are clearly connecting the content to a social learningenvironment, and as a result, they are better able to recall and reason about course material.18Many teachers spend a significant amount of class time going over the correct responses to anexam, or worry that they cannot take the time to do this without losing content coverage. Ratherthan spend the same amount of time going over the exam, a team test allows students to discover,justify and own the answers. By having students spend time working through the exam with eachother, the students become teachers, participating in reciprocal learning.For planning teacher-to-classroom feedback, the group exams give a better

Incontrast, ‘Enquiry’ was implemented at Michigan Tech as a means of developing spatialvisualization skills and to help students understand conventional methods of representingobjects.The collaboration across two international universities proved very beneficial in terms ofmodifying and improving the apparatus used in the activity but it also provided a means ofcritiquing and refining the courses in which they were implemented. The recommendationsfrom ‘Phase 2’ indicate that careful consideration should be given to the timing andapplication of ‘Enquiry’ within modules of study. This planning should take learningoutcomes and students’ prerequisite knowledge into account. For example, it may bebeneficial to facilitate experiential learning of various

For example, in makingrecommendations for how engineering departments might effectively enact ABET criteria, onepair of chemical engineering instructors (sharing their findings in a journal for engineeringeducators), writes that, "...the measurement of student achievements in the courses shouldprovide considerable information on the curricular effectiveness of an academic program."9 Alsovery common is the idea that a failing student should repeat the failed class, a

A surprising finding was that studentsbelieved the Architectural BIM was more effective in learning architectural systems than MEPBIM was in learning MEP systems. This finding, though tentative, is subject to many differentinterpretations. One possible interpretation is that students learn more from BIM-basedinstruction when they possess additional prior knowledge about the subject material. If thisinterpretation is true, it provides strong support for the argument that BIM should be taught as asenior level course (maybe a technical elective) versus as an introductory class [15, 16].The authors plan to continue to conduct this research on larger scale in order to gain

Dietz et.al.9 associated procrastination with individual values and learningroutines, asserting that people who plan their daily activities procrastinate less than those who donot. Akinsola et.al.10 observed a positive correlation between procrastination and achievement inmathematics, but went on to conclude that varying levels of procrastination (low, moderate andhigh) have no significant impact on overall academic accomplishment and that gender played norole in procrastination-related behavior.

Although I typically teach undergraduatedynamics, my assignments at HM included a graduate level multi-body systems (MBS) courseand two undergraduate courses with considerable content in vibrations. I would have to say thatmy primary workload issues revolved around trying to re-learn the MBS and vibrations material,and trying to develop good example problems for each class. Although I have numerousproblems and real-world examples for sophomore level dynamics, the same cannot be said forMBS and vibrations.It was also challenging to plan a 90 minute lecture, when I am used to 50 minute classes.

He published a paper, Computer Security Threat Monitoring and Surveillance, anddefined that an attack was a specific formulation or execution of a plan to carry out a threat. Heclassified a threat as a deliberate unauthorized attempt to access information, manipulateinformation, or render a system unreliable or unusable. Since then, a variety of taxonomyschemes on grouping attacks into categories have been proposed. For example, in 1987 Denning2classified abnormal patterns of system usage into eight categories: attempted break-in,masquerading or successful break-in, penetration by legitimate user, leakage by legitimate user,inference by

PBL is acurriculum development and instructional approach, emphasizing student-centered instructionand the execution of projects as the focal learning activity. PBL has been shown to substantiallyimprove long-term retention and “deep understanding,” i.e., the ability to extrapolate knowledgeto subsequent learning experiences and new situations.22 Many studies have demonstrated theefficacy of PBL in science and mathematics, including grades K-12, as well as in legal
