determined.ALEKS Discussion:Figure 1 reflects a scatter plot that shows the relationship of the students’ average grade earnedbetween Calculus I, Physics I, and Statics courses and the associated ALEKS score. A point onthe scatter plot is determined by grade average (y-axis coordinate) and the ALEKS score (x-axiscoordinate). The trend line shows the tendency of the ALEKS score with a certain gradeoutcome.When comparing the individual class grades with the ALEKS score received, the graph showed agradual upward trend from lower scores to higher scores in relation to class grades. This is truefor each of the three classes. The three class grades where then averaged together and comparedto the ALEKS score. This trend line showed the students having the lower

comprehensive Program (Re)Design (PRD) processdeveloped by Texas A&M’s Center for Teaching Excellence (Fowler, Macik, Kaihatu,Bakenhus, 2016). The PRD process, shown in Figure 1, provided eight steps that systematicallyguided the Committee, serving as a roadmap as they sought to develop a new architecturalengineering program from conception to implementation.Figure 1. The Program (Re) Design model followed to create a new interdisciplinaryarchitectural engineering program. (Fowler, 2017)In order to ensure the new architectural engineering program was responsive to current societalneeds, program decisions could not be made until relevant data were available (Diamond, 2008).Wolf (2007) emphasized the need for curriculum development to be data

As presented in Figure 1, the historical evolution identifies advances madefrom basic manual systems to intelligent advanced material systems in control, sensing andactuating technologies during the past seventy years. In addition, depending on the type ofelectrical power used in the facade systems, the responsive systems are identified as either passiveor active systems. Based on the active or passive technologies used in responsive systems, controlcan be a closed-loop or open-loop system.The utilized technologies are categorized in five groups: mechanical technology

The author wanted to find out what effect a professor relating professional experiencewould have on student learning retention in comparison to the same lecture given without thesereal life stories. The goal of this paper is to investigate the background of storytelling ineducation and show its effect on student retention of related course material by comparing twosections of a first-semester freshmen course. The results of this preliminary study will providefaculty with an understanding of the relative benefit of engaging students through workexperience storytelling.Storytelling in Education:Telling stories is the oldest form of teaching and learning.1 It has been a method of educatingfrom pre-historic times.

social expectations (Gottfredson, 1981) and identity, whichusually includes gender, class, and ethnic background (Archer, et al, 2010). At Oklahoma StateUniversity, the School of Architecture participates in and coordinates activities aimed at youngergenerations. To better understand these programs and other P-12 architecture and engineeringexposures’ effectiveness, the authors of this article conducted a survey of the current studentpopulation of the school. This is shown in the Appendix. Students of every level completed thesurvey. A breakdown of the 214 responses is shown in Figure 1. First year had 77 responses,second, third, and fourth year had an average of 38 and fifth year dropped to 23. The number offifth year students is affected by

efforts. This support of student internships is critical, as thenational trend is for increased student participation in internship or cooperative educationprograms. “In 1980, about one out of every 36 college students completed an internship prior tograduation. This increased to three out of four by the year 2000.” (Hurst 58)Prior to fall 2014, most divisional internship and co-op records were paper based. Work isunderway to streamline recordkeeping through the use of electronic databases. This has alloweddepartments to better evaluate student and employer success. The following graphs representemployer feedback for the following questions: 1. Did the internship student recognize professional, ethical and societal responsibilities

. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2017IntroductionDespite the near ubiquity of 3-D modeling and building information management (BIM)software packages in the architecture, construction, and restoration industries, potentialemployers have continuously expressed concern that graduating students are not adequatelyprepared to operate some of these BIM software packages (Harris, 2014). Exposing students toconstruction methods via software used in the field may help to soften the transition from theclassroom to the industry. Consequently, the authors proposed the use of fully-developed 3-Dmodels, based on accurate data, as an instructional tool which may simultaneously achieve threegoals: (1) Improve the facility with which the

The group was made up of students from the following majors. • Architectural Engineering (10 students) • Architecture (1 student) • Art (2 students) • Horticulture and Crop Science (3 students)The project was a capstone class, thus the focus was for the students to draw upon their entireengineering education, as opposed to learning specific new skills or topics. The pedagogy was touse the experience itself to educate, as opposed to a classroom and text book. In using theexperience for
