duein class the following week. Two midterm exams and one final exam were given, and studentscompleted two Matlab projects in groups of three.ParticipantsThe course was taught by the same instructor in both terms considered in this study. Theinstructor was a full-time faculty member at the university with over 10 years of teachingexperience. S/he had taught the DTSS course discussed here several times prior to the two termsin question. Student participants in the study were predominantly male, junior or senior students,majoring in electrical engineering. The majority of students were also domestic and in-state.However, they varied greatly in GPA. The students were also diverse in race/ethnicity with overhalf being either White or Asian. The

definition of mission engineering is the deliberate planning, analyzing,organizing, and integrating of current and emerging operational and system capabilities toachieve desired mission effects.Mission engineering applies the mission context to complicated and complex system(s) ofsystems [2]. Most current systems engineering practices do not fully address the uniquecharacteristics of mission engineering, addressing the end-to-end mission as the ‘system’ andextending further beyond data exchange between the individual systems for cross-cuttingfunctions, controls, and trades across the systems.Mission engineering differs from the established term of mission analysis in that the latter onlyaddresses examination of current operational and system

For example, the same individual with thenegative experience in the second week reported that there was nothing that hindered his/herlearning in the sixth week. BEST Fellows also rated their experience in the Friday workshop positively. Moreover,Fellows were in agreement that working together during these workshops was helpful. Whenasked what aspects of the workshop promoted their learning, Fellows responded: “​[s]haring outexperiences and open group discussions​”, “​[t]he readings and paired

thatacademic preparation is typically not one of the main reasons for attrition 4,5. In other words, moststudents who leave academia choose to leave because of their own personal decision, not becausethey failed qualifying exams or are doing poorly in their courses 5–7. Indeed, Barnes et al.’s 8,9studies of graduate attrition showed that the attributions that professors give for their students thatleave are different than the rationale that the corresponding non-completing students give forleaving. The misalignment, misunderstanding, or attribution bias that may exist (from both parties)is worthy of study and is likely due to the issues that have arisen with sampling a sensitivepopulation.Further, most attrition literature takes a sociological view of

In course planning and preparation, theinstructor adopted a learning-centered paradigm, while using a Learning Management System(LMS) (i.e., Blackboard) for course organization, file sharing, assignment posting/submission,grading, and testing. The instructor’s goal was to create a learning environment in which studentscould learn to restructure the new information and their prior knowledge into new knowledgeabout the content, and practice using it. Course design included a combination of mini/bridginglectures (as needed), readings, group discussions, exams, assignments, and a team project

At Robert Morris University (RMU, the author’s institution), this educational resourcegap has been addressed by developing several ALTs in the form of class exercises, case studies,and case study videos that were created by collaborating with the academia and industrialprofessionals. Through this three-year work 20 delivery hours of case studies, 18 delivery hoursof exercises and 6 delivery hours of role play videos totaling 44 delivery hours of Software V&Vcourse materials have been developed.

It is alsocomprehensive because the goal is to improve academic achievement while helping studentsmaintain their identity, connect to their communities, develop a sense of shared responsibility,share their “sensibilities,” and develop critical consciousness. Through a rasquache approach,students will see themselves and their communities in a curriculum that is empowering,transformative, and liberating. The goal would be to replace individualistic perspectives withmore cooperative and active roles from the students and teachers.References[1] J. S. Passel, D. V. Cohn, and M. H.

Quickly in his career, he turned his focus on CAD production drawings on the computer and built a computer division and set standards at the Myers/Schmallenberger Design firm in Columbus, Ohio. In the Early 1990’s, Marty started up his own consulting company doing visualizations and animation for companies in the design industry.

Dr. Diller is an internationally recognized authority in heat and temperature related processes in living tissues and how they may be applied in the design of therapeutic devices. His first studies in the 1960’s were related to the frozen banking of cells and tissues for transplantation. He has also pursued advanced analysis of burn injury occurrence and treatment and the application of thermal therapy for cancer. Currently he is focused on the use of temperature manipulation to enhance the healing of injured soft tissues, the development of a new generation of safer and more effective
