The results (again, shown in Table 4) demonstrate an improvement in quiz outcomeswithout a significant alteration of quiz format. Adjustments to course curriculum were alsominor, but clearly necessary. Greater emphasis was placed on how to test code, including codethat uses different programming methods, and additional instructions were included in projectdocuments about how to test code (See Appendix A).Discussion and Conclusions Throughout the process of first combatting plagiarism, and then circumventing it, we arrivedupon some potentially useful take-a-ways. First, plagiarism is a symptom, not a disease. Second,many programming assessments may not

in students’ work and whether such socialaspects can be learned within the timeframe of a course. A predominant focus on technicalaspects in teaching and learning engineering [2], [17], combined with cultural stereotypes of whocan become an engineer, leave many at the margins of solutions rather than at the center of them[18], [19]. Less attention has been given to incorporating into the curriculum the myriad ofsocietal factors that influence engineering processes and products. Our research suggests thatengineers will consider the lived experiences of people and their communities in their work whenthey become aware of the role of broader societal issues in engineering, thereby opening uppossibilities for better and more equitable solutions

The co-teachingprogram consists of two phases: co-teaching module development and module verification bymathematics faculty members.For co-teaching module development, the program paired up mathematics faculty membersteaching Precalculus 1, 2 (College Algebra and Trigonometry) and Calculus 1, 2 (SingleVariable Calculus – Differential Calculus and Integral Calculus) with faculty members ineach of the disciplines of Chemistry, Engineering, or Physics. Students in these classes weretaught jointly by a mathematics faculty member and a faculty member in the respectiveSTEM disciplines.The goal of this

architectural design course is one of two design options offered by theconstruction division, and has been taught since 1990. Moreover, the construction engineeringdiscipline is the integrating element of this program curriculum (see [7] for more background).Over the years, both architects and civil engineers have taught the course. The ArchitecturalDesign course replaced an older architectural drafting course and focused on residential designfrom 1990-2014. Students designed a house for a client or their future selves as a vehicle tolearn computer-aided drafting (CAD). As CAD programs evolved and became more powerful,the students were able to create more elaborate and often unrealistic “dream houses” in a singlesemester.While the course was very

This problem was provided by the faculty teachingintegral calculus as follows: The force due to friction F (N) needed to move an object with massm (kg) across a surface is F=μ.m, where μ (N/kg) is some coefficient that depends upon surfaceproperties and the gravitational constant. Consider a block of wax being pushed across asurface, leaving behind a trail of wax as it travels. Its mass is related to the distance the wax hasbeen pushed (x) and is given by m(x)=50-0.5x. Assuming that the coefficient μ=2, how muchwork is needed to push the block 100m across this surface? This problem and its solution arefurther detailed in equations 4 & 5
