Groups would meet not only on their own out of class to complete a courseassignment, but additionally in-class to apply the concepts they learned in the online modules.For example, groups would spend time on plan reading exercises and the instructor was able tospend time providing feedback to each group.4.3 Data gathering and analysis.

to presenttheir social problem and solution with an additional five minutes allocated at the end of thepresentation for Q&A. Each group was also tasked with producing a marketing poster for theirproject to highlight their problem and solution. The students were given freedom as to thespecific content and layout of the poster, so long as it effectively advertised their solution. Theposters were hung throughout the engineering building so the general student population couldperuse what their peers had come up with and the students in the class could be proud of theirachievements. Three projects were presented during each section, and the students in the sectionvoted on the top project from each session. From this, 13 projects plus two

Like, its just literally multiplying numbers together, no integration, super simple, um, and yeah, that was the most serious thing I did. And I was astounded at the time, I was so surprised.Later in the conversation, Andrew expands on the main challenges that he actually did faceduring his internships, characterizing them as “cultural.” While we return to this theme below indiscussing the sociotechnical character of Andrew’s work, here it is
experiment with actual experimental results. 3. Demonstrate the beginnings of professional practice: a. Effectively communicate in written form the design, completion, and analysis of experiments to answer open-ended questions. b. Effectively communicate by oral presentation and Q-and-A session the design, completion, and analysis of experiments to answer open-ended questions.We have assessed these objectives with both direct and indirect measures since the beginning ofthe course. A full discussion of the objectives, assessment, and changes to the course far exceedsthe scope of this paper. For this paper we are focused on Objectives 1b (data acquisition), 2a(design & complete experiments), and 2c (compare

The purpose of the OCM is the guidance of the design, implementation, andassessment of online education systems utilizing four learning theory oriented components andthree human–computer interaction principles. This model promotes augmented face-to-faceinteractions by offering several features, such as collaborative multimedia presentation, virtuallaboratory, social and collaborative Q&A community, and a robust communication framework tothe online classroom 8.
