behalf of the professor. She did not cite scientific evidence or pedagogical best practices to support her belief that it is a problem if universities think of their students as customers who should be satisfied, and it is not a problem if students aren’t coming to class. It is important to distinguish opinion from fact. The same is true for her belief that the university may not support the professor if he gives grades that accurately reflect his students’ achievement.A Customer Relationship Management system can support multiple approved channels forcommunication that can be used any time and at designated touchpoints. The communication canbe anonymous if people do not want to give their name. The CRM can support objectivestatistical

reference.They then design a poster discussing their research into the assigned topic. While MRS providesa PowerPoint Poster template, there is no specific format for the poster and students areencouraged to present their material that best fits their research. Students are also encouraged toremember that posters are a visual experience so font size, organization, and graphics are allimportant at conveying your point and that language needs to be concise. The poster mustinclude the following sections as a minimum: • Background: Give an overview of the relevant history or technical details that inform the problem you are interested in. • Thesis/Problem Statement: What specific aspect of the topic is your group focusing on?

https://www.breakthroughtech.orgGiven that communal goals and altruistic purposes have been described as important toaddressing a “lack of interest” in STEM for women [28], we assigned our Guild a theme with asocial impact message: “Empowering Communities.” Then, the students worked in teams toidentify problems that they wanted to tackle that fit within the broad theme provided to them.Students were charged with designing a project where they attempted to solve the problem thatthey had previously identified, using newly acquired technical skills cultivated during the week.The Guild workshop culminated in a formal group presentation where the teams presented theproblems identified and received feedback from the whole group.The schedule for the

Data and Data Science require new IT graduates to demonstrate theirmastery in data acquisition, data management, and data inference skills when they enter theworkforce (Mithun & Luo, 2020). Thus, introductory programming courses such as databaseprogramming and design represent crucial milestones in IT education, as they reflect students'ability to solve problems and design appropriate solutions (Skala & Drilk, 2018). But, for noviceprogrammers learning SQL programming and logical database design concepts is a challengingtask because while writing SQL programs, students not only have to apply theoretical conceptssuch as syntax and semantics but also practical concepts such as problem-solving at the same time,which results in cognitive

topic. This meeting iscritical since this is the instructor’s best opportunity to manage the scope of the project and makesure that the project that the student can complete in time for the final presentation. A latermeeting is used to review the project design and assess the student’s progress towardscompletion. During the final presentations I usually provide feedback on next steps based on afuture work slide.Table 2 summarizes the different milestones mapped to a 15-week semester. The expectation isthat there is about 6 weeks total for the project, with a possible 4 weeks of actual development.In practice, the actual development time varies from student to student and varies from 1 week to4 weeks. 2 weeks should be enough time for a student
