decode theconcepts or terms used and apply them correctly to the problem or question. Depending on theobjectives and content area, a question or task may require integrating content knowledge,problems solving ability, laboratory experience and ability to apply information (Patz, 2006). Ifthese concepts and vocabulary are not fully captured, students are likely to do poorly.Most mathematics course knowledge is tacit, so only a fraction can be verbalized or signedduring a lecture. Often students pick this up by integrating lecture material within their mentalschema by discussion and practice with their peers. In mainstream classrooms, deaf studentshave fewer opportunities to integrate academic knowledge, including reflection on experience.Given

recording of protocols and progress has been done via paper labnotebooks. With the popularity of the internet, many have been turning to electronicmeans to record their study data, though this does not imply that paper lab notebookshave been completely abandoned. In the beginning, many were making use of tools notnecessarily created for the sole use in laboratories, such as Microsoft Word, Evernote,Google Docs, or other means of recording notes online and/or via a computer.However, there proved to be a market for products used especially by those doingresearch on scientific fields and thus the electronic lab notebook was born.

Topics will include: the learningcurve and use of Geogebra, how assignments built around interactives encourage student use,and future plans for the use of Geogebra in Statics and Dynamics.Educational Basis of StudyThe use of active learning (across its various forms) has been broadly found to enhance studentlearning [1], however care must be taken to create active learning tools which are well-structuredand delivered. As one example of active learning, the use of physical and virtual interactives (orthe combination thereof) for both in-class teaching and outside of class learning has often beenshown to enhance student learning [2]. Similar to all other learning materials, the way in whichinteractives are used can be as

Amongst those efforts reportedon regarding applying service learning in computer science [10, 11, 12, 13, 14], some haveinvolved experiences being conducted in the first year of study. Examples include creatinganimations for a community music outreach program [15], teaching basic computer skills toprison inmates [16], performing usability and accessibility audits of non-profit websites [9],conducting computing lessons in an after-school program at a local middle school [17], andapplying the entrepreneurial mindset to the service learning experience [18].Project DesignTo formalize the design of the

Teachers may want to consider how their classrooms can become moreinteractive, and what opportunities exist for students to teach each other some of the content(e.g., pairing students so the stronger students share what they’re learning, and they learnto say it in new ways).Reduce distance. Break down the distance between student and teacher by making surethat career mentoring and personal advising are available and your students know whereand how. Encourage students to take risks and see failure as a step toward success.Explicitly discuss the importance of finding mentors in the profession as well as how toidentify possible mentors and how to establish and cultivate relationships with them.Consider

In enhance a student’s self-efficacy, Suffolk EE classes have laboratory componentswhere students perform, either individually or as a team, hands-on exercises and projects thatengage students in understanding the theoretical concepts learned in their lectures. As much aspossible, “real-world” applications are used so that students get a sense that what they arelearning is important and relevant.

The resultsalso show that the GUIs did not affect the students learning in sketching shear and momentdiagrams, but the results provided the instructor with data about which students shared solutions,which students used shared answers, and that no answer sharing occurred between the courses ofdifferent semesters.IntroductionIn the learning process, instruction is provided to students through varying styles of teaching thatfall under one of the many common learning models and theories [1], [2], [3].
