Driven by this evidence, self-reflection shoulddeepen student discipline-specific understandings.Research activities centered on a university-specific electronic portfolio: the PersonalDevelopment Plan (ePDP), enabling students to more effectively map out and navigate theiracademic and co-curricular experiences, as well as their subsequent careers. The ePDP is apersonalized planning process that enables students to understand, implement, and chart progresstoward their degree and college goals.

advantages of pursuing an independent study with the interested students were: • More faculty involved with different expertise (especially valuable at an institution with fewer faculty and less specialization) • The fall semester after the Materials Science course permitted planning to begin the project in the spring and give the project more time with a two-semester option • Less time required for course design • Increase our department’s research experiencesThere were four students who expressed the strongest desire to learn more about materials afterthe junior course.

In such cases, these students already havesome “spare room” in their degree plan should they need to withdraw from or re-take a course.Because one of the objectives of the scholarship program is to create some buffer in participatingstudents’ curricula, students who are ahead in mathematics are considered ineligible for thisprogram.Other scholarship selection criteria include grades in the first year mathematics, engineering, andscience courses; participation

In general,library collection development decisions were driven by budget policies rather than byuser need.In 2011, KSL formed a task force consisting of faculty and several librarians. The goalwas to create a collection and budget strategy that adapted with new research needs andreflected a fairness in meeting all faculty expectations for access to databases, journals,and books (i.e. prevent subscription inflation from overtaking the book budget). The taskforce proposed a plan that was approved by the Faculty Senate. The plan allowedlibrarians to decide how to allocate collection development budget dollars, since they

The curricular unit used in this study was designed and developed with guidance from boththe STEM integration framework [24] and The Framework for Quality K-12 EngineeringEducation [27]. The latter framework identifies nine key characteristics of quality pre-collegeengineering; the first of these characteristics, the Process of Design (POD), is most pertinent tothis study. POD has six sub-indicators which represent the fundamental characteristics of designprocesses: problem, background, plan, implement, test, and evaluate. POD can be broken intotwo stages: problem scoping and solution generation. The problem scoping stage is composed ofidentifying the problem, criteria, and constraints and

One of the ways stakeholders are addressing this challenge is by developing youthout-of-school programs to pique interests in STEM fields (Valla & Williams, 2012).With the amplification of national interest in attracting underrepresented youth to STEM fields,the presence of out-of-school programs aimed at attracting these students has grown (Perna,2002).
