This method retained the 1-5 scale and rewardedconsistent ideas (e.g. an idea that scored all 3’s is more innovative than an idea that scored two1’s and two 5’s). Once scoring was complete, we calculated the mean (out of five) and standarddeviation in each category and for overall innovativeness.ResultsStudents identified 26 unique solutions to the design problem.

We expand upon this concept by making explicit therelationship between facilitating individual success and valuing each team member, where astudent can experience more success when s/he is valued. Arguably, creating opportunities forstudents to engage in robust teamwork can be facilitated when educators increase students’awareness about the benefits of valuing all team members, a construct that is often implied butnot explicitly discussed in teamwork literature.Creating an environment free of discrimination and bias is the second construct we address in theInclusive Behaviors scale.

focus here on the factors that influence the pedagogical choices faculty make. In particular, there is value in structuring an instructional innovation such that instructors identify the need in their own classrooms and potential mechanisms to address that need. Within this structure, instructors retain autonomy in deciding which evidence-based practice(s) will address a need in their courses without requiring infeasible levels of change. In this paper, we consider a study in which instructors participated in ongoing faculty development through which they selected and implemented an evidence-based teaching innovation in their classrooms. We focus on the factors that influence the pedagogical choices faculty make when they are given an array of

In this course, theinstructor split the class randomly into teams of four, provided each team with two problemsrelated to the week's topic, then had students work in pairs to solve the problems. When a teambelieved they solved both problems correctly, one representative wrote the team name on thewhiteboard and the instructor checked their answers. If one or both answers are wrong, the teamwas given a three-minute timeout in which they could continue to work on the incorrectproblem(s) but could not write their team name on the board

Are we going to have differential temperature within the differential length? S2: I’m not sure…why we need a derivative this way? This [current equation] seems accurate, because… S1: If you have a differential length are you concerned with the temperature within that…at that length?
