University of Washington and the Making Academic Change Happenpractitioners from Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology. The origin of our partnership occurredin the mid-2000’s when one individual from MACH and one individual from CERSE metthrough a different national project, and subsequently maintained a loose professionalconnection. When NSF encouraged MACH to submit a proposal focused on supporting changefor the RED program, MACH contacted CERSE and a joint proposal resulted. These first stagesof developing the partnership brought to light the expertise contributed by both groups: MACHas experts in change strategies, and CERSE as experts in qualitative research. Our initialexperiences suggested that we would work semi-collaboratively, with major

While student facilitators were not initially included in the NSFITEST proposal, their engagement in the classroom provides extra hands to support the activitieswhile serving as an engineering role model to the 6th grade students and teachers. All of thestudents volunteering for the program are pursuing degrees in engineering or science- andtechnology-related fields.

The Department Head uses this input to identify and consolidate trainingopportunities, workshops, communication or seminars; to establish spaces for cooperation andthe presentation of improvement plans; and to assess the faculty member’s level of commitmentto and compliance with her or his proposed improvement plan.Current planning at the departmental level is considering the use of the CDIO twelve standardsframework [8]. This framework takes the

To further enhance the communication between tutors and course instructors as well as to better familiarize the tutors with the students and class activities, the tutors would be required to attend 2 to 3 classes per week (maximum 3 hours/week) for the course(s) they tutor. The attendance in these classes would be considered as part of their tutoring load. Identify at least 5 qualified students for tutoring/mentoring task. These students have performed at least at a level of B or better in the gate keeping courses, have junior/senior standing, and have a GPA of at

examining students’understanding of a datum reference frame (DRF) specified on a drawing and their ability tomodel a 3D part with a consistent DRF origin. It was clear that students in TEC333 had difficultyrecognizing the DRF when given a drawing with GD&T. This was especially true when holeswere used as datum features. Since one of the main tenants of GD&T is to provide consistencythrough design, manufacturing, and inspection, conducting a closer examination of design intentwithin the drawing, constraint-based model, and the inspection method could provide useful datafor improving instruction.References1.

The Tech Startup process begins with the onset of the semester, when instructors presenta general overview of semester-long projects and charge students to brainstorm project ideas forsoftware to develop. With the popularity of social media, web services, and prevalence ofsmartphones, most projects proposed involve web and/or mobile applications. In the followinglecture, the project proposals are shared among all students and each student expresses whichproject(s) to which they wish to contribute.
