. Along with thisimage learners were presented with the following dilemma: ‘Owl has too many books and needsto get them organized and easily accessible. As a first step Owl plans to build a bridge over to asecond tree (yes, Owl can fly but flying is tough while carrying heavy books).’ And asked torespond as follows: ‘What type of bridge should Owl design? This week we’ll focus on tension;what types of bridges could Owl design that rely on tension? What design do you propose?’ Because all learners, in both A and B groups, would be contributing to the same discussion boards, Group B was

Safety Training Series and Certification (undergraduate engineering students)In the current academic year we have experienced growth in both I/U partnerships and inprogram delivery. We currently partner with over twenty-five (25) industries and have plans toexpand to include government agencies, industry associations, and other academic institutionalpartners.ConclusionsIndustry partnerships can be highly beneficial to colleges and universities. Sustaining suchpartnerships requires that clear policies and procedures be in place to mitigate any possiblefinancial risks.

helpimprove performance in Calculus I.Another change will be how the EBC is delivered to the students. UNC Charlotte is changingcourse management systems from Moodle to Canvas, effective fall 2017. For 2016, the programwill remain in Moodle, with plans to use Canvas for 2017. The migration from Moodle toCanvas is expected to be relatively easy based on pilot studies.In order to maintain its usefulness, the EBC is modified and updated annually to reflect changesin the campus and university policies. The Forum interaction portion of the Boot Camp has roomfor growth. For example, student workers are developing a menu of topics and questions that canbe used as prompts. These improvements, combined with better timed communications with theparticipants

additional practice.Results from this study, and subsequent studies of student success in the calculus sequenceafter the 3-week program has been effect longer, will add to the data that will affect futureprogram planning. Additional student surveys will be created to learn more about studentperspectives that affect their participation and success in the program. Studies will beexpanded to include longitudinal results as the number of participants that continue throughthe calculus sequence increases. The search for the most effective program possible willlikely be an unending process as we strive to support students in engineering calculuscourses.VII.

as a direct prerequisite or corequisite.We chose this criterion because these courses are expected to be the most directly impacted bythe calculus sequence. We narrowed the sample pool by selecting only those faculty memberswho taught these courses during the Fall 2014 or Spring 2015 terms (a pool of 60 faculty). Thisensured that these faculty members remembered their experiences teaching the selected courses.On occasion participants encouraged us to interview another faculty member who failed to meetour criteria but were considered to be important voices in our campus’s dialogue about this topic.Two such faculty were added to the sampling pool. By the end of the project, we plan tointerview at least two faculty members from each of the 12

PTA’s aretrained on the scoring rubric during regular meetings associate with course planning. The goalfor the grades are mainly to provide motivation to engage in the task and to receive some level offormative feedback on their work products. Therefore, the scores are relative to where they arein their development as a design team and do not provide a strong indicator of a learningprogression. A separate analysis of these work products is underway to determine a team’sprogression from novice designers with weak performance to highly functional design teams.An in-depth analysis is currently underway

Hence, it could be concluded basedon the student response that the experiment based project introduced has high impact onlearning. Every student selected one or more options for question 4 which showed that theproject has substantially contributed to the improvement of various important skills includingdata analysis, experiment design etc.Future ImprovementsA number of improvements can be made to the current prototype resulting in better performanceand reliability.

supportlearning.Final considerationsThe use of multiple forms of learning support is satisfactorily perceived by students and teachers,corroborating significantly to the teaching-learning process. Balancing support activities fordirect or indirect learning support proved to be a wise option. According to the authors’perception, the most successful results are related to students’ motivation and commitment inPhysics class. Students’ commitment must always be encouraged, throughout the academic year.Implementing similar activities in others schools will demand planning efforts and commitmentfrom teachers’ teams.References[1] CUTRI, R.; STEM, N.; MATTASOGLIO NETO, O.; SILVA CAMPOS, L.

We also wanted to include our own questionsregarding future career plans, ability to recall previous coursework, and attitude toward designand associated skills. Because there is no requirement or incentive to complete the survey, it is inour interest to make it as quick to complete and simple as possible. For that reason, we reducedthe Carberry instrument to no more than two self-concepts (self-efficacy for all three surveys,and anxiety in surveys 2 and 3).The course uses Comprehensive Assessment of Team Member Effectiveness (CATME) tocapture and assess team dynamics.7-9 CATME provides summary and analysis of teams andindividuals based on a set of algorithms, and in certain cases flags
