Information Technology (NCWIT). His past experiences include having been a middle school science teacher, Director of Academic and Instructional Support for the Arizona Department of Education, a research scientist for the Center for Research on Education in Science, Mathematics, Engineering and Technology (CRESMET), and an evaluator for several NSF projects. His first research strand concentrates on the relationship between educational policy and STEM education. His second research strand focuses on studying STEM classroom interactions and subsequent effects on student understanding. He is a co- developer of the Reformed Teaching Observation Protocol (RTOP) and his work has been cited more than 1800 times and his

preparesprofessional cost engineers and project control professionals for the certification examsadministered by the Association for the Advancement of Cost Engineering (AACE)International. Because the course is part of the organization’s recommended introductory course,it attracts a global audience of professional engineers from six continents.The original course structure consisted of readings from the recommended textbook andcompleting 15 assignment sheets. Once a student signed up for the course, the universitycontinuing and extension office mailed the required textbook and assignments. Correspondencebetween the instructor/Teaching Assistant (TA) and learners was facilitated by mail, fax, oremail. Once learners had completed the assignments, they would

organizational context.From a situative perspective, however, such misalignments are not unexpected (Johri & Olds,2011; Paretti, 2008). The situative perspective posits that learning – or any activity - is intimatelytied to the context (Brown, Collins, & Duguid, 1989). The context both constrains and enablesdifferent kinds of learning. Importantly, context applies to not only the physical setting, but alsothe culture, time, people involved, goals, and related factors. For example, in a typical academiccontext, the goal is often acquiring knowledge to demonstrate proficiency for an evaluator (e.g.,on a test or homework assignment). In contrast, at work, the goal of any particular activity mightbe to advance a project, finalize a design decision

a host of instructional strategies andeducators have been significantly lagging in using them[1]. In fact, Henderson and Dancy [7] arguethat the improvement in engineering education lies not in finding more effective instructionalstrategies but in using the proven strategies.This paper describes our attempt to introduce a few RBIS in a rural Indian engineering college.We introduced simple strategies such as using audio-visuals, think-pair-share, formative feedback,problem-based learning in lab sessions, and project-based learning in design courses in a one-dayworkshop. Eighty faculty members, in two batches, attended the workshop, which itself used manyof the above RBIS. The participating faculty members reflected on the strategies in

“Online College Students 2015: Comprehensive Data onDemands and Preferences”, a joint project of The Learning House, Inc. and Aslanian MarketResearch led by Dr. David L. Clinefelter and Carol Aslanian, key concerns with online learningincluded:  Perceptions of quality of online study – 27% of respondents  Inconsistent/poor contact and communication with instructors – 21% of respondents  Lack of direct contact with other students – 17% of respondents  Inconsistent/poor quality of instruction – 17% of respondentsThe only two other concerns with a higher number of respondents weremotivation/attention/focus challenges at 27% and cost at 16% (Clinefelter and Aslanian, 2015).When you review the data about online student preferences
