program, we began working with our ACM studentchapter to develop a series of gaming-oriented events we call "Digital Carnivals". Over the pastfive years, these events have been supported by the Computer Science program, the StudentUnion Network, the office of Student Life, and three retention and recruitment grants awarded byNorthern Arizona University (NAU). These events have become an important recruitment toolfor our computer science program, attracting the attention of computer-savvy students fromacross campus. The fact that these events are planned and executed by the ACM club (i.e.,students themselves) has made the carnivals a strong retention mechanism as well: as studentsparticipate in the events they get to know other students in our

quality assurance and improvement initiatives oftenbegin with identifying areas of quality concern, stating goals for each area, identifying indicatorsof goal achievement, and planning measurements for the indicators.4 Developed qualityframeworks support this overall process and are adaptable, as opposed to prescriptive. As anexample, a set of guidelines was developed by the Sloan Consortium (Sloan-C), an organizationwhose purpose is to help e-learning organizations continually improve the quality of theirofferings.5 Sloan-C guidelines identify “five pillars” of quality in on-line education. These pillarsare learning effectiveness, cost effectiveness and institutional commitment, access, facultysatisfaction, and student satisfaction. The intent

Another plan is to implement the original task at other universities that havethe same engineering disciplines to see if the new course is making an impact on the student’sproblem solving ability.

Hence, it iscritical to develop and employ a change strategy that extends the typical “best practice” approachthat is typical in STEM reform efforts [15]. Rather, successful strategies of a comprehensivechange approach should be continual, coordinated, and focused, and should address bothchanging the pedagogical conceptions of key and varied stakeholders in a STEM instructionalsystem, as well as affording stakeholders with an iterative cycle of performance evaluation andcontinual feedback [16].

While professional development sessions are already offered to faculty, the college plans tooffer sessions that could be conducted within each academic department, such as softwaredemonstrations or simple training sessions incorporated within regularly scheduled departmentfaculty meetings. These training sessions could be framed around how various Tablet PCfeatures can benefit them, such as how the Tablet PC can increase their flexibility through usingvirtual office hours.

Applicants were between 10 to 18 years old and it was hoped toboost their interest in STEM subjects.

There is obviously some institutionally dependentinformation in the seminar, but in general the material is readily adaptable to be used by otherinstitutions. The presentation approach, three screens with three views, was central to thesuccess of the seminar.Though there is no specific evidence to suggest it, the authors’ opinion is that the seminar alonewould not have any impact on tablet PC adoption, and is
