However, utilizing McMillan and Chavis’ (1986) PSOC, we have beenable to integrate and offer the possibility to demonstrate why this unintended effect is occurringwith non-STEM participants in the PROMISE AGEP. Use of the PSOC model as a conceptualframework for the PROMISE AGEP is an example of an “unintended effect.” PSOC wasintroduced to PROMISE: Maryland’s AGEP by a former graduate

Smith andBailey3 discuss their “high touch, high value,” accelerated, systems engineering Master’s degreeprogram. They also reported the results from an alumni survey that highlighted students’ generalsatisfaction with the program. Wuyts et al.4 developed a one-year, multi-campus biochemicalengineering program in Belgium. This program was modular and they focused on the innovativeimplementation of the modules at multiple campuses and their future assessment plans.

by teaching at least one graduate course per year.ConclusionTo start and maintain a successful graduate program in Technology, several factors need to beconsidered. An initial environmental scan will help the program to set a curriculum whichaddresses the need of prospective students and employers. The program needs to distinguishitself from an engineering graduate program by having courses on managerial/leadership skills aswell as courses on decision making skills, in addition to technical courses, as part of thecurriculum. A step-by-step approach in growth, by slowly expanding the program, will help theprogram flourish as the offering becomes broader and therefore addresses the needs of a broaderconstituency.

Ideally, iSLR would be introduced into the wider curriculum andwould address student skills and abilities that are difficult to attain in regular coursework.The rest of the paper is organized as follows: Section II gives an overview of uses of SLR inother disciplines, especially in medicine and software engineering. Section III discusses uses ofiSLR as pedagogical tool in engineering and includes implementation details. Section IV isdevoted to assessment methods and results.

The 2nd column (a value of 0) suggests that at an individual level, teammembers did not require the strengths of other team members. This could imply that theinterdisciplinary collaboration was not that integrative in nature; i.e. the sum of the individualtalents did not result in something greater than the whole. The value at the team level (3rdcolumn) contradicts that at the individual level (5th column) and is very positive in nature.However, the importance placed on this aspect was low.

Learning community as it isused here is simply a: “[group] of people engaged in intellectual interaction for the purpose oflearning”; a community that is a pragmatic and effective means of educating students as thesestudents get “involved in thinking, questioning, and actively seeking knowledge” (Cross, 1998,p. 9).

This within-group differentiation appears to be grounded in fairly routine experiencesas a member of an under-represented group in a STEM field. Ironically, despite the clear disempoweringimpact that these experiences can have, there is also some evidence that they may promote thedevelopment of alternative value structures and feelings of purpose related to STEM fields for membersof underrepresented groups. 15ReferencesAlexander, C.
