In these sessions, studentswere provided guidance, help, and training on an individual basis as much as possible. Thefocus was on the individual student's needs and how the student could achieve the best gains inthe topic skills. This was accomplished using the following principles and characteristics oflearner-centered education: active learning, student engagement, adaptability focused onindividual student needs, practice until mastery, prompt feedback, and general avoidance of thetraditional lecture format.

In some cases, the practices werefer to are extant in the education literature, but not ones that we have tried as yet; however, weplan to examine them in upcoming semesters and, possibly, incorporate them into our ownclassrooms. We also indicate how several of these practices help meet the requirements ofagencies that accredit engineering

” [8]. The focus of this paper is Undergraduate Senior Design or Capstone projects (SDP). AnSDP is a culminating experience for undergraduate students, usually taking place during their lastyear of studies in the US education system. Their intent is to allow students to put into practice theengineering competences that they have acquired during their studies to solve a realistic problem.However, we contend that most programs center on establishing realism through the definition ofthe problem, and miss evaluating the realism exhibited by the solutions students develop. In order to study this gap further, this paper investigates whether the solutions that studentsdevelop as part of their SDP’s poses characteristics that are

However, this is the portion of training thatsome analysts, like LaBarr[3] and Starbuck [10], think needs additional attention and training foryoung statisticians.

After each of the five conference calls, the student group writes a reflective paperabout what they have learned. This method differs from the traditional case study approachbecause the students do not just read what is written, but can ask initial questions and ask follow-up questions to get a better understanding of what is important by the inflection of the mentor’svoice and hearing the mentor convey it in his/her own words.This research is for the purpose of sharing best practice with other instructors and understandingthe key factors to the program’s success.
