, c) AR welded joint In Table 1, the Total Scores have been compiled to make comparing the results easier. When looking at the bad scores the butt joint was the most difficult at 30, while the tee joint was easiest at 57. The decent scores were similar for the lap and butt joints–73 and 74 respectively– while the tee joint was 82. Finally, the tee and lap joints proved to be easily done, after some practice a Total Score of 96 for both was achieved. However, even with practice the butt joint was difficult to master, achieving a good Total Score of 89.

Specifically, they felt that more innovative instructionalmethods for delivery—such as active learning and model-coach-fade—and time for practice andparticipation were paramount. However, they also recognized the need for the traditionalinstructional methods of reference books, tests, and assignments/labs.7.

Themodel partnership, which is based on components of two other successful national University-School partnership programs, enhances a school district’s plans for coherent interventions and tobuild meaningful learning opportunities for all students. The partnership contributes to asignificant transformation for diversity in science and engineering in the K-12 schoolsenvironment, and encourages university community members to aspire to altruistic goals in arigorous academic setting.Joint goals were established through a series of meetings between university and school officials,staff and master science and mathematics teachers. Goals were refined and ratified during threeformal workshops, which were conducted over

engineers are “entrusted by society to create a sustainable world andenhance the global quality of life”, and need to “serve competently, collaboratively, and ethicallyas master of innovators and integrators of ideas and technology across the public, private, andacademic sectors”. The Vision 2025 also prescribes that a range of attitudes that supplementknowledge and skills for a successful civil engineer to embrace for effective professionalpractice. These attitudes will manifest themselves in several aspects, such as “creativity andentrepreneurship that lead to a proactive recognition of opportunities and subsequent actions totake advantage of them”; “Curiosity, which is a basis for continued learning, fresh approaches,development of new
