traditional scoring approaches?Graphic Design Project Assessment Many students are new to the idea that design is a continuous process of iteration and thatimplementing design projects in problem-based learning scenarios requires students to gothrough a process of reflection, critique and revision (Larmer, Boss, & Mergendoller, 2015). Inthis research we specifically introduced students to the concept of re-iteration using ACJ as atool for peer and self-assessment. We wanted to investigate if ACJ would allow students toexperience this continuum formatively through ranking their own, and their peers’, designs.After each ACJ-session, and the accompanying receipt of peer-feedback, students had anadditional week to revise their designs before

It has made fora more positive experience for both instructors and their students alike.ConclusionSystematic planning that considerers all aspects of the program as a single system, has allowedus to gain success in student recruitment, retention and job placement. Industry involvement inthe program has helped to create a program with content and structure that fulfills industry needsand supports student success. Student success in the program is reflected in the high level of jobplacement we have seen.This material is based upon work supported by the National

The purpose of this method is to allow students to play with applying physics knowledgein new relatable ways.

, funding DMPs were not covered in theclassroom. Thielen et al. developed and taught a for credit course on Data Management for graduatestudents in climate and space sciences.[5] For this course, students had weekly assignments towrite a section of a DMP based on that week’s classroom activities. The final project thenconsisted of combining these sections in a comprehensive DMP. This student assignment is anexample of the project DMP. The authors note that: 1) the DMP “was not tied to any fundingagency requirement”, and 2) the assignment may be revised in the future and limit the DMP totwo pages to “more accurately reflect federal funding agency requirements”.[5] Thus, theauthors acknowledge the funding DMP (i.e., a desire to limit the DMP

A five-point Likert scale was used to measure the student responses on the threedimensions (Figure 4, n=103).When asked if the modules displayed an appropriate level of complexity, 62% of the studentsagreed or strongly agreed, 22% of the students responded in a neutral manner and 16% of thestudents disagreed or strongly disagreed.

We summarize how the Tech Startup model is applied to a Software Engineering courseand reflect on the lessons learned. We supplement the instructors’ observations with datacollected from surveys on students’ attitudes and experiences. We also describe a formativeevaluation and compare how our adaptations to the courses’ implementation of the Tech Startupmodel affected students’ learning experiences. Finally, we recommend best practices andadditional learning activities based on our findings.Background. Active learning pedagogy contrasts with traditional

They thus create opportunities rather than discover them. Despite calls for more qualitative research and specifically exploring the stories ofentrepreneurs to generate theories, there have been virtually no studies within engineeringentrepreneurship education that focus on analyzing the narratives of engineering studententrepreneurs. There is one qualitative study that looks at engineering students perceptions ofstudying entrepreneurship during a specific course or program (Taks, Tynjala, Toding,Kukemelk, & Venesaar, 2014).

noticed a higher level of responsibility entrusted to male students thanto female students. These hostile experiences often caused female students to question if theywould ever be taken seriously in the workforce or valued as an engineer. When reflecting ontheir working experiences, these women identified moments of extreme self-doubt that stand insharp contrast to the growing confidence and career satisfaction their male peers recounted (Case& Jawitz, 2004; Seron et al., 2016).It is important to note that while some accounts of this mistreatment in the workplace occurred instudies during the early 2000s, two were published in 2016, indicating this culture is consistentthroughout time and still relevant to women in engineering today
