The training is conductedby approved and trained “Master Teachers” and “Affiliate University Professors” with at leasttwo trainers in the classroom.The purpose of this phase of the research was to determine if the PLTW training model isperceived by the participating teachers, as sufficient for preparing them to teach their newcourse. In addition, the investigators sought to determine if the teachers continued theirprofessional development through other activities. The investigators posed three researchquestions regarding the PLTW professional development model: 1. How satisfied were PLTW teachers with the

The teaching of design has been integrated to the curriculum by devoting acertain fraction of the coursework or labs to open-ended design problems. Likewise, formalintroduction to the engineering design method is made at the sophomore level in two courses:Introduction to Mechanical Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering Tools. These coursesintroduce the design cycle, and expose students to design concepts by using problems withinreach at the sophomore level (e.g., statics, simple material selections, etc.).

Ingeneral., educational studies tell us what worked, on average, for the populations examined andlearning theories suggest why this might be so. However, claiming that faculty who adopt aspecific method will experience similar results in their own classrooms is simply not possible.Even if faculty master the new instructional method, they can not control all other variables thataffect learning. There are conditions where a teacher may have to “go with the odds.” The moreextensive the results supporting a new method, and the more the instructor’s students resemblethe reported test population, the better the odds are that the

ideas of existence (that something physically existsin the world) and essence (the underlying rationale for a thing’s state of being) have becomedecoupled. This decoupling, i.e. disconnect of artefacts from the natural world, has led tomeans being separated from ends leading to a crisis for civilization (MacIntyre, 2009). Itmay be that our disconnect from the essence of existence triggers a need for control that isexpressed through mastering technology. Feenberg framed technology dialectically on twoaxes: (1) whether technology reflects or stands separate from human values, and (2) whethertechnological developments can be managed by humans or are ultimately incontrollable(Feenberg, 2006; Mitcham, 1994).

For instance, a student may be struggling to comprehend loops,where the ringer has long mastered that skill and forgotten what it was like to struggle withloops. If a student’s and the ringer’s ZPD do not overlap enough, then the student will bemissing out on the benefits of working with an MKO as the ringer cannot relate.
