Academic Department: A Case StudyAbstractLean approaches to continuous improvement, originally practiced and perfected by ToyotaMotor Company, have been widely used in the industry sector for many decades. There is agrowing trend at universities to adopt lean practices to improve higher education processes.Reduced financial support and growing competition amongst universities and academicprograms motivate the implementation of lean practices both at university and departmentlevels.1 Colleges and universities that have adopted lean practices are driven by the need tostrategically leverage resources to meet stakeholder expectations, reduce waste or costs, andimprove satisfaction with under-performing processes.2 This paper presents an overview of

ProcessIntroductionGraduates from ABET accredited engineering programs are expected to demonstrate an ability tocommunicate effectively [1-2]. Developing students’ technical writing skills are particularlydifficult to teach and more time consuming to assess [3], often limiting the number of opportunitiesstudents have to practice and improve throughout their undergraduate education. While recentstudies have shown positive impacts of using rubrics to measure student scientific writing skills[2-5], little has been reported regarding the cumulative impacts of a structured student writingproces. Here we expand on previous work, which introduced a student technical writing processand presented preliminary data supporting improvements in students’ technical writing skills

Further, university structures and administrative obligations (e.g. ABETrequirements; department mandated course, content, and sequencing constraints; or adherence tocross-section uniformity) can also present barriers to change and experimentation by instructorswithin particular courses.This paper rests on the premise that political discussion and thinking around civic engagement isgermane to the work that engineers do, and critical for faculty to incorporate into classroomspaces.

Although common in name, these factors are generally experienced differently at the different schools with a few similarities.

However, theindependent nature of faculty work as well as the segmented institutional structure has led to theprevalence of academic silos. In addition, with the changing landscape and budgets of institutionsof higher education, adjunct faculty who are hired through temporary contracts are playing anincreasingly important role in undergraduate education. In the College of Engineering, ComputerScience, and Technology (ECST) at Cal State LA, more than 50% of courses are taught by adjunctfaculty, many of whom are current or former working professionals.

The current SET questions first were reviewed, and theniteratively each member suggested potential questions, based on the literature, and categorizedthem. Each potential question was systematically reviewed and evaluated using a rubric, goingthrough each SET category. The simple rubric supported objective review and discussion of thepotential questions using two criteria (what students are able to evaluate and the usefulness toinstructor) and a rating scale of 2=yes, 1=maybe, and 0=no. The rationale of the ratings anddiscussion comments also were noted on the rubric. To close the loop, the committee presentedthe recommendations to the deans and Faculty Senate members at the

TheseVeteran students hold identifiable traits that differ from traditional engineering students who areunder the age of 24 and financially dependent on their parents [3]. While a significant effort byinstitutions across the country have been made in engineering student retention, many of theseefforts have focused on traditional students. This research seeks to fill

It has been observed thatover 50% of students that leave college prior to graduating do so between their first and secondyears at the institution [2, 3]. The University of Pittsburgh studied attrition of engineeringstudents and found that half of the first-year students that left their program had been placed onacademic probation at the end of their first term [4].

Whilethere has been recent discussion of CFT in the literature, there is no clear consensus on adefinition of cognitive flexibility or how it is directly measured, particularly in complexproblem-solving situations such as engineering design. One common definition of cognitiveflexibility is the ability to switch between thinking about two different concepts and being able tothink about multiple concepts simultaneously (for example, multiple design criteria or constraintsin an engineering problem or multiple
