When asked what they found most difficult,50% reported the topic, and 29% reported administrative issues (e.g., number of homeworks,final test/ project, etc.).

ratio of notes in each chord are equal.III. Conclusion and Future Work In this paper, we have tried to create a vivid description of the general physics classroom by reviewing several of the most commonly cited problems that result from the course content and method of instruction. We realize that without having implemented our project in an actual classroom or obtaining any data of our own, we cannot make any new conclusions. However, by describing a broad set of issues as well as simple solutions, we hope to offer the average teacher with at least one new idea to try and use with his or her own students. This process is in the preliminary stages, and we would like to

New faculty were also given copies of the OU Researchmagazine, which is another source of information about research projects currently underway atOU.As new faculty work on writing research proposals, one of the ways that they can hone theirproposal writing skills and build a funding record early on is to apply for internal fundingopportunities.

. Courses are often integrated into these two major fields to allow for some exposure to themanufacturing industry. A paper in the Journal of Engineering Education notes that amovement to move to higher course content on manufacturing in both of these disciplines isneeded8. Many current engineering programs do not emphasize the marriage of design andmanufacturing in a modern industrial technical workforce.Many research studies have assessed the quality of exposure to manufacturing through the senior“Capstone” design project course. McMasters and Lang believe that too few in industry have anunderstanding of how the current engineering education is set-up. Therefore, if industry partnersare brought into the education process through design projects

IntroductionThere is a need for biomedical engineering students to more fully engage in the problemidentification and needs-finding stages of the biomedical device design process throughexperiential learning and immersive experiences. Many publications have documented theimportance of immersion outcomes in design, technology commercialization, and overall studentlearning.Kline et al. documents eight best practices for technology commercialization projects that fosterinnovation education and fit a variety of innovation stages that might vary per student design.1Zappe et al. agrees

To confirmopportunities for all six reflective decision-making elements during classroom project work, weconducted content analysis of the EiE curriculum units. As discussed above, in Lesson 4 of allunits, we found learning tasks that could reasonably be expected to call upon these six elements.Partnering with four elementary teachers, we video recorded seven EiE units at four differentgrade levels (water filters in 2nd grade, bridges in 3rd grade, circuits in 4th grade, and maglevvehicles, windmills, pollinators, and knee braces in 5th grade). During each unit, we focusedvideo recorders on one or two student groups. We also collected students’ paper

Time guidelines for the project may help future students have an idea of how much time is expected to be spend on this. [My team mate and I] had very different views on how much time each task would require, which caused some issues, I think.

, TaskValue and Intrinsic Goal Orientation in 2012, and Task Value in 2013). This suggests that themost stable impact of the studio-based learning environment is the impact it has on students’views of Task Value. Unfortunately, the stable impact of the new instructional technique yieldeda decrease in students’ perceptions of the class’ Task Value. However, even Task Value scoreswere found to vary as a function of Major, Race, and Gender. This suggests that these TaskValue scores, as well as those from other scales, must be evaluated in light of the demographiccharacteristics of the students who provide those scores.Qualitative DataAs part of the overall research for this project, all participants were asked to complete a series of50 qualitative
