firmshould apply to select an academic collaborator to optimize its payoff from its R&Dinvestment. We also analyze the criteria a research team should apply to select aresearch project from a firm to advance its stock of knowledge. In our model, a firm links to a university to form a R&D research consortiumto conduct an innovation R&D project. The firm provides the investment, which isthe cost of project conduction carried out at the university. The university receivesthe investment and conduct the research for the project. The outcome of theseprojects, in the form of stock of knowledge and preparation for students, benefitsboth sides and gives a win-win situation: the firm uses the new innovation to reduceits production cost; the

collaborative research. First, from an engineering education perspective, he emphasizes the importance of communicating essential knowledge to non-engineers. The second per- spective comes from the mathematics education research literature. There is a well-established paradox: students often fail to apply familiar methods when they attempt to solve novel problems. Coordinating these perspectives has facilitated the collaboration across disciplines.Ms. Malissa Augustin, FAUSantiago Aguerrevere Page 26.1242.1 c American Society for Engineering Education, 2015 Precision Low

as institutions and student families. One important reason for thissituation is that the national education system does not focus on the development of STEMcompetencies. As a result, the motivation of engineering students in mathematics courses iscontinuously hampered because of deficiencies in prerequisites. This paper reports partial resultsfrom a project conducted in collaboration between mathematics and engineering at UniversidadIcesi, in Colombia. The project involves the Algebra and Functions, Linear Algebra, Calculus I,and Probability Theory (Statistics I) courses. The main objective of this project is to supportmathematics instructors in the process of improving student learning, by continuously reflectingon the effectiveness of the
