little or no accountability or decision reached on the success or failure of "service" activities. ≠ Accountability would have to be performance and output based. The outputs would include items such as: publications in archival journals, generation of trademarks, patents, and/or copyrights, invited presentations to discipline-specific industry/trade conferences, and generation of funded activities, including scholarships, tuition remission programs, faculty buy-out, equipment purchases, maintenance offsets, and related issues. ≠ Again I think for research and scholarship efforts it requires funding, publications, and graduate student production, where those students have also published their work

explored how considerations of sustainability influences how project success is defined and measured, project risks, market opportunities, and portfolio management. Most recently, a lesson was introduced to the course focused on helping students understand effective negotiating abilities as a critical project management skill. We explain how negotiations are an important element of life in general, and specifically in project management. Example applications of negotiation in project management include: definition of project scope; development of budget and schedule; management of conflict between team members; analysis of requests for changes to scope, schedule, cost, and specifications; handling results of project audits; and

Unfortunately, adjuncts are marginalized by the academicsystems in place today; and their contributions to the academic process are undervalued. Next,the paper reports on the success story of an adjunct, a practitioner with good credentials, who“teamed-up” with a “full-time” faculty, in an attempt to bring the practice to 4 thyear students in ageotechnical/ foundation engineering class. The success achieved in meeting course objectives,as a result of practitioner’s role, was attributed, in large measure, to proper planning andcoordination that preceded course delivery. Plus, the willingness, experience and abilities of theadjunct in addressing the practice in

Faculty proposed large-scalerenovations of a specific undergraduate course or closely-related group of courses, with the goalof improving student engagement, learning outcomes, and faculty teaching experiences.Alternatively, faculty could propose to develop teaching technologies that would facilitate theimplementation of evidence-based teaching practices. Priority in funding was given to projectsthat would impact large numbers of students or provide critical interventions early in students’learning careers.“Live deep, not fast,” is an admonition coined in the early 1900’s by literature professor, critic,and editor Henry Seidel Canby 1.

Formative Feedback CoachingIntroductionFaculty development, as it relates to teaching and learning, has been a persistent challenge inhigher education. College faculty generally begin their careers with no formal training in teach-ing and, consequently, ‘teach as I was taught’ is the starting point for most new faculty. Respon-sibility for faculty development of teaching, therefore, falls to an administrative unit of theuniversity. Many institutions have successful faculty orientation and mentoring programs, butthose programs often fall short of moving new teachers to effective practice in engagement peda-gogy using active learning strategies. Modifying the practices of experienced faculty is particu-larly difficult.This paper explores how faculty

competencies and learning objectives. QW3 and QW4 wereaddressed in this talk. In the globalized environment discussed above, one of the main tasks of aneducator is to prepare engineers who are capable of identifying and solving problems that do notyet exist with tools and methods that have not yet been invented. Hence, there is a need toeducate students to “learn how to learn” and to empower them to take charge of their owneducation. From the students’ perspective, this translates to identifying and obtaining thecompetencies needed to become a valuable asset for a dynamic career. Hence, the first step is tolet the students identify their personal goals for the semester. The objective in this talk was toprovide the participants an understanding of how
