economic difficulties have led state governments to pressfor a lowered rate of increase in funding for state-supported universities. Private donors whohave often generously supported colleges and universities are also feeling financial strain as theycontemplate their plans for charitable donations9. On the other side, Dunbar et al.10 and Logue11found students are under increasing pressure to complete their degrees, find gainful employmentin a very tough economic climate, and begin repaying student loans that are approaching acrushing level of burden. Both sides have a vested interest in increasing the efficiency andeffectiveness of undergraduate engineering education.Bell12 discussed the similarities that universities have to a manufacturing

However, Colquitt and Roddell (2015) suggest a two-factor solution that collapsesinterpersonal and informational into distributed and procedural is also acceptable. In our survey,students responded to the derivative instrument for three different contexts: (1) Courses they had takenin previous semesters, (2) Their capstone course, and (3) Their TechCom course. We plan a moreextensive reporting of the instruments’ development and validity in future work that is not possible in aWIP.In addition to the grading justice and fairness instrument, we asked two additional

Therefore, by doing just one ‘major project’ work, the students do not get enough experience in the institute to handle the real projects when they reach the industry. b) In such a scenario, often the main objectives of the project work of developing skills such as, planning, leading teams, communication, working in teams, decision making, and such others do not get developed by just one ‘major project’ offering in the last program. This is much to the disadvantage of the student, as most of the times the ‘major project’ is a group activity. Therefore, the requisite project handling skill- sets hardly gets developed as it is offered only once in

In particular, we seek tounderstand which factors may influence Hispanic students’ engineering identity development.We begin by answering the following research questions: 1. How do the engineering identity, extracurricular experiences, post-graduation career plans, and familial influence of Hispanic students attending a Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI) differ from those of Hispanic students attending a Predominantly White Institution (PWI)? 2. How do the same measures differ for Hispanic students attending a PWI from those of non-Hispanic white students at that PWI? 3.

A synthesis of the literature suggests curriculum can be described ascomprising some or all of the following six aspects:  a concept – how one thinks about a curriculum in the abstract or meta level – identifiable when one talks about a curriculum rather than the curriculum 12,17;  an artifact – a document or set of documents – in other words, the written, published, planned

The supposition was that those scoring higher on VECTERS’value and expectancy items would be more likely to currently be integrating a classroom strategyand would be more likely to plan on using the strategy in the future (either initiating orcontinuing to use). Regarding costs, a cost-increases-with-usage hypothesis was supposed bysome on the research team even though expectancy theory supported the cost-decreases-with-usage hypothesis.Construct validity was further examined by applying orthogonal (varimax) rotation factoranalysis.

However, ERCs currently undertake evaluation in relative isolationfrom other ERCs despite NSF’s encouragement of instrument sharing [3]. The nature of thisoften-solitary assessment results in each center developing and using similar but also divergentevaluation tools. A consequence of these multiple ERC assessments has created redundancy inthe investment of effort and resources at each center. Divergence in data collection from theseredundant efforts has made cross-center comparisons difficult, if not impossible.A consortium of three ERCs (Center for Bio-mediated and Bio-inspired
