evaluative nature of the process also meant that both observers providedindependent feedback to the faculty member under observation. Longitudinal data across foursemesters and five different courses provided context for assessment of teaching methods,efficacy, and relevance in content.Adoption of Barrick’s peer observation five-step process and adaptation of his process todepartment performance standards led to implementation of a seven-step peer observationprocess for the department. See Appendix 1 for an overview of the process (Figure 5), includingforms used by the peer (Figure 6) and supervisor (Figure 7). These two additional steps toBarrick’s methodology (post-observation dialogue and observation write-up) serve to “close aloop” which is a

toreflect on their own process by writing blog posts every time they finished a role.As mentioned before, S. G. Adams et al. (2002) model guided our study, therefore wedeveloped several interventions in the classroom to make sure we were offering the studentswith each construct of the proposed model. Details as follows: • Common purpose: The primary grade in the design course was based on teams’ development of their design project. Every team had a common purpose (i.e. the real design problem to solve by the engineering team). • Clearly defined goals: teams were required to develop quantifiable and commonly agreed goals, based on the needs of all the tracks. • Psychological safety: students were trained on safety for

demonstration to generalities, (c) engage learners in peer-discussion and peer- demonstration, and (d) allow learners to observe the demonstration through media that are appropriate to the content. iv. With respect to application, instruction should: (a) have the learner apply learning, consistent with the type of component skill, (b) provide intrinsic or corrective feedback, (c) provide coaching, which should be gradually withdrawn to enhance application, and (d) engage learners in peer-collaboration. v. With respect to integration, instruction should: (a) integrate new knowledge into learners’ cognitive structures by having them reflect on, discuss, or defend new knowledge or skills, (b) engage

objectivesto write a paragraph that will be read by peers and professors has also shown to increase theperception of learning among students (Meyer, 2003).Another advantage of online learning is the immediate interaction available through online tools.This has generated both a greater satisfaction with the course and sense of proximity to peers andprofessors (Collins, 2000; Fredericksen, Pickett, & Shea, 2000). In addition, Rabe-Hemp et al.(2010) suggest professors may enjoy a reduction in class preparation time. While it is true that thefirst time a professor teaches an online course, it requires copious amounts of time to produce thelearning materials for the course. After that first year, the professor can often reuse those materialsand make

past thirty years, many studies have emphasized the importance of applying ergonomicprinciples to product designs such as designing swimming suits3, non-powered hand tools4,writing instruments for children5, and luggage handles6. Thus, continuously injecting humanfactors and ergonomic (HFE) design concepts in the undergraduate engineering curriculum isimportant. It ensures that students have knowledge of applying HFE principles towards productdesign to minimize potential causes of injury and discomfort for the users7.Studies have noted that product design should address ergonomic considerations that take intoaccount the majority of customers’ capabilities and limitations when using the produce for itsintended purpose8. To discover the

individual efforts and the ability level that can be reached under adult guidance or incollaboration with more capable peers.1 Guidance can be provided by helping the learner tofocus on particular aspects of the problem by asking leading questions or providing starterinformation, or simplifying some of the details.2Scaffolding provides a structure that helps students construct knowledge by building newknowledge and competencies upon their existing abilities. It is commonly used in writing andusually given in one the following three forms: 1) breaking up an assignment into smallerassignments, 2) keeping assignment constant but increasing the difficulty of materials, or 3)creating a scaffold within a single assignment. 3 The levels of learning based
