scenarioscan and do create spaces for workplace learning. Moreover, the examples they provided arelargely idealized and do not account for the full range of experiences newcomer engineersencounter. Thus, analysis included working recursively through the data, literature, and examplesto develop operational definitions of each variable. We deconstructed the examples provided byJacobs and Park (2009) to develop functional criteria that could be applied to journal entries todetermine the location, structure, and role of facilitator(s) within each entry, as described below.Determining location of learningJacobs and Park (2009) define on-the-job as learning that occurs “near or at the actual worksetting,” but also emphasize experienced-based learning in on

the literature about thechallenges of advancing innovations from the interest or awareness phase into actualimplementation. When developing professional development programs, people should considerthis challenge. Further, they should include dedicated and structured time for programparticipants to discuss about the particular innovation that the program is focused on, in order tohelp facilitate change of practices.AcknowledgmentThe authors gratefully acknowledge support of this work by the National Science Foundationunder Grant No. 1524527.References 1.

These many changes are a reflection in large part to our changing family makeup atdistinct periods in time. From above, it can be construed our U.S. populace generally getmarried in their 20’s. The 30’s are typically a time for the collection of material possessions(cars, homes, furniture, appliances, etc.) Our late 40’s reflect an empty nester’s phase, where ourchildren become, theoretically, independent and move out onto their own; whether this

strategies), and choregraphing details (how exactly the RBIS may be used). The participants formed teams to reflect on the benefits and obstacles. This structure was based on Henderson et al.’s guide [9]. 4. Reichert and Absher [10] have aptly said that it’s not so much the details of what successful programs do, rather it’s the care with which they do it. Therefore, we emphasized the importance of passion in deploying the RBIS. 5. We then explained the challenges in implementating any new ideas based on Rogers’s work on innovation diffusion[11]. 6. The particiapants chose around three strategies to use in the subsequent semester and organized department-wise discussion on the plans. 7. All the

faculty members in the Department wanted to follow suit, and began their search for theright type of practitioners, to enrich the academic process by bringing the practice into the classroom. After Foundation Engineering was over, and the final course grade was out, a“questionnaire” was sent to those who enrolled in the class seeking their opinions, evaluations,and any comment(s) they may wish to offer. Twenty six out of a total of 30 students returned the“questionnaire” on time! The opinions expressed and comments made were, by and large,positive to say the least. After regrouping, and rephrasing to correct the English language; thecomments offered by the ex- students, could be summarized as follows:  The adjunct was easy to approach

Evaluation of the RTOPevaluation tool displays a shift in engineering faculty attitudes and beliefs towards fidelity of EBISand JTF pedagogy. Future work includes the dissemination of these evidence based instructionalstrategies and JTF pedagogy across a second cohort, as well as additional RTOP analysis for eachparticipant. A broader impact of this novel study is increased student performance, engagement, anddevelopment throughout their engineering careers.References[1] Krause, S., Middleton, J., Hjelmstad, K., Judson, E., Culbertson, R., Ankeny, C., Stevens, D.

the blocking and tackling of process creation. The difficulty,however, comes during the process completion step of assigning resources. During this activity,true cross-discipline collaboration must occur. The resultant process flow may very well be apermutation with inefficiencies and additional costs if cultural and emotional considerationsmaterialize.While the above discussion provides meaningful insight into defining distance education as aprocess, and provides a methodology to do so, an area for further research would be to surveyseveral comparable universities to determine their peer organizational structures andsubsequently validate the methodology proposed above.References1 Bozkurt, A., Akgun-Ozbec, E., Yilmazel, S., et al.

is that we had more content than we couldreasonably address within time available for the course, so focusing on objectives and outcomeshelped us pare the material down to its most important components.A revised version of Bloom’s Taxonomy [3] was used to write learning outcomes and objectivesin measurable terms. As a result of an iterative process between SME and curriculum designers,course level learning objectives were aligned with the learning outcomes; likewise, module-levellearning objectives were aligned to course-level learning objectives to ensure that each learningmodule could help learners to achieve intended learning outcomes. To exemplify this point, thetable below lists learning outcomes, course-level objectives, and Module 1’s
