Michael’s retrospective reflections on and systematic analysis of threeencounters he had with various members of his college during his freshman year. It is importantto point out that at the times when these encounters took place, Michael had not yet begunworking on the research project described above [12]. In other words, the encounters took place innatural settings and were not influenced or prompted by the goals and purposes of this study.As described above, the purpose of embarking on this exploratory study was to examine howstories ‘told’ about engineering in the public discourse influence, or “shape and reflect” [12],communications at an institutional level. The focus of the empirical analysis was therefore notthe stories that individuals

Their needs are very specific, and you canquickly tell whether the program is worth pursuing. You can find out more about thekind of work they are interested in by offering to serve as an external reviewer forproposals submitted to them. The Sponsored Projects Office at the University ofCalifornia-Berkeley has a useful list of funding opportunities [6] for new faculty frommission agencies as well as NSF.2.3 Industrial funding.

As a result,the effects of learning activities and perceptions of classroom interactions among the instructorand the students may differ by student5,8. Further, research has also shown that students’conceptions about teaching
