more similar, and for the GraphletMatch metric the value willmove upwards towards 1 where 0 reflects no matching.From this figure, it appears that our new metric has a similar behavior to RGF-distance. As notedin our previous work 2 , in many cases student’s seem to be performing better after exam I thenexam II. We have no reason why this is the case, but we are performing additional experiments tosee if we can determine why this is happening. Broadly, it appears that the GraphletMatch metricis as good as RGF-distance with the added benefit of being a true matching of graphlets asopposed to RGF-distance’s measure of approximate structure.Figure 6 shows a similar comparison as previous but with the GranularSimilarity metric and thenew match

The Page 26.1592.3results of the experiment were satisfactory as more than 85% of the students thought that usingthe tablets contributed positively towards their active learning experience. Instructors observedthat the level of interaction and enthusiasm increased greatly among students. While it is difficultto provide accurate result values that reflect the amount of increase in student performance in theclassroom, the high level of attendance, which was observed, was certainly a good indicator

College during the fall of 2014 in the Incubator experience. Although the pilot study did notfind an advantage of teaching integrated courses, it was an important step towards the re-envisioning of the existing curriculum. The Purdue Polytechnic Incubator operated as a facultynetwork that explored best practices on education by deconstructing the models of traditionaldisciplines. This allowed for re-visioning of the traditional educational model by including co-teaching and group reflections as a core component of the experience. The integration ofhumanities and technology provided with a rich ground for student development. Rather thanfocusing only in a mechanistic approach to technology, students were able to draw parallels withtheir cultural

their institution is (andwhat it is not).Alignment of objectives is an important element of effective education practice. In any course,the course content, assessments, and pedagogical practices should be aligned to improve learningand to have valid understanding of the students’ progress. This is more difficult across a wholeprogram with multiple instructors and course offerings, but it becomes almost impossible if theoutcomes are not clearly defined. The multiple definitions of entrepreneurship create many moreopportunities for confusion and misalignment across programs. By articulating the particulartype of entrepreneurship education being offered, administrators can better ensure thatcoursework across the program reflects the desired

. Despite thebenefits of an approach teaching problem-solving skills first, the transition from pre-programming problem-solving courses to courses in which students should master a full-fledgeprogramming language remains a challenge 18, 22. This is reflected in the number of students(44%) who did not have an acceptable performance in either concepts or skills (Figures 4 and 5).Even though those students had passed a previous problem solving course, they find thetransition to a learning environment that uses a full-fledge programming language like Javadifficult.According to Mayer 17, in addition to the cognitive and metacognitive aspects of problemsolving, other aspects like motivation and engagement are also important determinants of studentsuccess

The students were asked to reflect on their involvement in the project, andthen rate how their participation affected their learning in six areas, as indicated in the following: 1. Ability to work as part of a large interdisciplinary team of technical and non-technical professionals. 2. Ability to write a real request for proposals and evaluate the responses. 3 Ability to consider life cycle issues when specifying components and identifying vendors. 4

Evaluation of Effectiveness. Engineering practitioners rate a sample of student papers using a simple 1 to 5 scale from “not effective” to “effective” - or, as translated by one practitioner, from “horrible” to “hire this person!” They are given basic information about the task and asked to evaluate based on what they know to be effective writing in workplace practice. Scores for pre- and post-intervention papers are compared statistically with Mann-Whitney U or Wilcoxon Matched Pairs tests. 4. Perceptions of Usefulness. Students are asked to complete a short survey about their perceptions of their learning and the materials’ usefulness, or – if instructors prefer – to write open-ended reflections on their learning.

Later areas of study will build on this study and may include alongitudinal study and expansion to other institutions.Design This study was a non-experimental between-subjects non-equivalent groups design. Thisstudy was designed to compare the moral judgment of engineering students who are justbeginning their studies at the University with those who are completing their studies. The studydesign was approved by the University’s Ethics in Research Committee (EIRC).Hypothesis The University’s teaching of engineering ethics increases students’ engineering moraljudgment as reflected in scores on the Engineering

0.783 for Section 002.This is likely due to the makeup of students in each section and the time difference betweenwhen the two sections met for class. The lower performing section was the earlier 8 AM classwhen more students were apt to miss class, show up late, and be less engaged during the classlectures. The importance of the difference between the two sections is reflected in the unevendistribution of homework assignments. The section that performed better was assessed twicewith paper homework while the section that performed worse was assessed twice withWeBWorK homework. This would indicate the difference between paper-based homework andWeBWorK-based homework may be larger than directly indicated by the score averages weobtained. If only

Inrecent years there has been a significant increase in the number of engineering-specificinternational programs reflecting the increasing globalization of the engineering enterprise.As engineering educators one might ask if engineering students learn differently on study abroadprograms than do students in other majors? And, if so, what implication does this have indeveloping and conducting these programs? The field of international education has, for sometime, sought to find ways to adequately assess international programs [3].

For example, one Team 1student added a caveat to their pre-course response about how stakeholders should have aprominent role during design: “Stakeholders should have a large role but they also need to understand the entire design process and know what kind of limitations there are.”The same Team 1 student also changed their pre-course response to Question 4
