Thissection concludes with a brief summary of specific programmatic elements the participantsidentified as supporting iteration in this work.From failure to iterationMastery models shift the emphasis in assessment from demonstrating success on a certain day ata certain time to demonstrating mastery of specified content and skills as they are mastered. Inthis context, time and the opportunity to reassess were supports that the participants identifiedwhen redefining failure as an integral part of iterative
-computer science (non-CS) majors, many of whom are encountering programming for thefirst time, alongside computer science (CS) majors with varying levels of expertise.The central challenge lies in effectively delivering programming knowledge to such a large groupof students, many of whom lack prior coding experience. Teaching programming to hundredsof students in a single course requires methods that can engage and support students at scale,ensuring the majority can successfully master the programming language. Traditional lecture-based approaches often fall short in achieving this goal, especially when students face difficultiesgrasping abstract programming concepts or applying what they’ve learned.To address this challenge, this paper introduces

incoming graduate students and advanced undergraduates in BME orrelated disciplines including life science. The wide range of quantitative background of BMEstudents is the main factor that sets this course apart from machine learning courses traditionallytaught in other engineering and computer science programs. A significant proportion of incomingBME Masters students intend to use our BME program as a vehicle to enhance their preparationfor future careers as data scientists in the biomedical industry. With this target group in mind,this course has no prerequisite and a paramount goal of this course is to provide students anappreciation of knowing the “why” and not just the “how” in biomedical data analytics.

We are also allowing students who struggled in thesecond half of the one-semester course to take the second stretch course the following semesterinstead of repeating the full course. Rather than repeat all the content, they can spend an entiresemester mastering the topics they struggled with.The paper concludes with thoughts about the benefits of this approach, which is primarilyincreased flexibility enabling students with diverse backgrounds to have a path that best suitstheir needs.

Certified trainers known as masterteachers and affiliate professors lead the training. The teacher trainees are taught how to determinewhen their students have mastered content by using continuous assessment and review ofengineering notebooks and assignments [5]. They are also trained on how to engage their studentsin problem solving and projects that require application of math and science.Multiple case sampling was used to select a range of similar but contrasting cases in the Midwest.Out of the eighteen trainees who took part in the professional

This paper will look at this need, what it takesto set up such a program, including the transfer issues and discuss of the level of studentsacrifices necessary for their bachelor’s degree.Since the development of the Master Plan in the 1960’s, state supported higher education hasbeen within the reach of most
will need not only in the material and energy balanceclass but throughout their careers as chemical engineers.Solution for the Observed Weakness Thus, after observing this first group of students, we felt that we needed todevelop some type of tool or procedure by which we could help students make thetransition from written material to visual material. This is not only a necessary skill butalso would allow students to continue learning using their preferred learning style. Ifstudents were able to master this skill they would be more successful in the material andenergy balance class and thus more likely to succeed in completing their educationalgoals. The difficult part of this task is to give the students enough guidance so that

On-line courses have been added which has expanding the opportunity tooffer distance education to students outside our geographic area and also to companies in lieu ofon-site courses.Most recently UC Irvine Extension and the Keck Graduate Institute of Applied Life Scienceshave entered into an agreement where graduates from the Medical Product DevelopmentCertificate Program, upon formal admission to the Keck Graduate Institute of Applied LifeSciences, can transfer course credits towards their Masters of Bioscience Program.
