STEM education. In her dissertation work, she developed and validated a new interdisci- plinary assessment in the context of carbon cycling for high school and college students using Item Re- sponse Theory. She is also interested in developing robotics-embedded curricula and teaching practices in a reform-oriented approach. Currently, a primary focus of her work at New York University is to guide the development of new lessons and instructional practices for a professional development program under a DR K-12 research project funded by NSF.Sonia Mary Chacko, NYU Tandon School of Engineering Sonia Mary Chacko received her B.Tech. degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering from Mahatma Gandhi University

Gender-balanced teams with high conflict among teammembers could not generate an idea and create innovative final projects. For having moreinnovative solutions in design projects, Fila and Purzer [24] suggested that instructors avoidforming teams only on the basis of gender and that they facilitate teams during teamwork.Ertas et al.

acrossa curriculum, there exists an opportunity to engage instructional engineering faculty ineducational reform and broadening participation efforts. However, research is limited on theeffectiveness of different faculty development models for these faculty. Through the analysis ofsurvey data, the findings suggest that the workshop series described in this paper provided avenue for community building among participants and exposure to new techniques and ideas.Overall, this paper makes visible the experiences of these instructional faculty. Specifically, thefindings describe how the workshop supported instructional faculty to take strides towardsimproving the learning experiences of their students.

As a result, the motivation of engineering students in mathematics courses iscontinuously hampered because of deficiencies in prerequisites. This paper reports partial resultsfrom a project conducted in collaboration between mathematics and engineering at UniversidadIcesi, in Colombia. The project involves the Algebra and Functions, Linear Algebra, Calculus I,and Probability Theory (Statistics I) courses.

As specified previously, the fourdedicated facilitators for the PD were graduate students and postdoctoral researchers inengineering fields. However, as the PD progressed, the facilitators began to develop a greaterappreciation for the work done by the teachers. This illustrates an effective, bidirectionaloperationalization of social capital with facilitators and teachers learning from one-another.For each of the aforementioned themes, Table 2 below provides examples of key issues affectingteachers during the PD while Table 3 provides examples of changes induced and observed in boththe

’ learning.IntroductionCollege provides boundless opportunity to a student in his/her personal, intellectual and socialdevelopment. Among different connections that a college student can make, research shows thatstudent-faculty relationships are the most crucial connection within a collegiate community(Duberstein, 2009). A sense of connection with a faculty member helps students feel like theytruly belong at the institution. When students feel connected to the campus community, they aremore often retained and excel academically, creating a winning situation for everyone. Facultymembers who understand the learning needs and interests of their students can appropriatelytailor assignments, expectations, and conversations.The center of this faculty-student relationship is
