Each section thus has one professor and 33 students. The sectionsdo intensive writing and speaking exercises that are hung on a curriculum whose intellectualcontent varies with the interests of each professor.To respond to the present challenges and meet our ambitious goals, we are proposing a newstructure for TCC 101.

significant departure from tradition occurs when Laplacetransforms are introduced immediately after the classical treatment of circuit differentialequations. This arrangement allows the concepts of sinusoidal steady-state response, networkfunctions, frequency responses, impulse response, step responses, and convolution to be treatedwithin a common framework. We have found that beginning students achieve a realunderstanding of transient and steady-state responses more rapidly by this method than theclassical phasor-first approach. The Laplace transform early approach actually saves classroomtime because students quickly master classical phasor analysis when it is presented as a logicaloutgrowth of an overall theme.

Overall, seventh grade students showed a significantimprovement in their scores when tested on the specific concepts of plate tectonics. Theuse of a grading rubric to assess the students’ projects showed that students mastered theconcepts taught.

Faculty then use class time to review this material, reducing the time that can be spenton the objectives of the course such as engineering design, professional correspondence, andimproving technical writing and presentations skills.

may help other educators, it is worthintroducing, at a fundamental level, why we decided to adopt the ungraded classroom in the firstplace. To do this, we ask a question: How does an expert academic or practitioner learn deeplyand master their field? Marshall Lib asked this question to ASEE in 1996 [1]. While he used theanalogy of learning to play a sport to how expert engineers form, and that often that formation isoutside of the classroom and subsequent to the formal education of the person, we see significantopportunities to heighten engineering formation in the classroom through pedagogical techniquesthat follow the call of Marshall Lib. Again, how does an expert academic or practitioner learndeeply and master their field? Quite simply
