the“How well have you improved...” self-assessment questions in the survey, the students withdisability responded significantly (p=0.004 for response of “very well improved” and p=0.048for “extremely well improved”) more positively than the majority. Moreover, the group ofstudents who transferred or the group of students who were international, we found these twogroups of non-majority students also gave more positive responses than the majority. We foundthese three student groups shared a commonality: their common areas are the ability tocommunicate and explore from viewpoints of more than one academic field. Lastly, greaterpercentages of students with disability found “Course(s) outside my major” had the most impacton their improvement than

?AbstractAs higher education evolves, one instructional tool, the classic textbook, is undergoing varioustransformations. Textbooks, once viewed as the cornerstone to instruction in higher education,are now often seen as outdated. Some instructors are opting out of published textbooks andinstead designing content for their courses on an as-needed basis by creating electronic classreadings from an array of digital resources. While the limitations of textbooks are not new,today‟s technologic advances afford many alternatives to print-based books. Furthermore, certainfields, by their very nature, dictate the need for timely, current resources and the coursedescribed in this paper is one such course for it covers alternative energy sources.

In conclusion, since equal is notalways fair, instructors must make their expectations exceptionally clear to ensure that anystudent can succeed and earn an “A.” I believe it is time for educators to polish their teachingphilosophy, create appealing visual models, and share them with their students.IntroductionDeveloping a Teaching Philosophy Statement (TPS) is central in any academic career [1].

Furthermore, all theinstructional tools that were developed and implemented in this hybrid classroom environmentwere also presented and discussed in this paper.IntroductionRecent studies have called for major pedagogical reforms to improve the quality of engineeringeducation by incorporative more active teaching styles1. Modern teaching styles apply student-centered learning techniques to effectively improve the quality of the learning process2,3.However, in today's tightly packed engineering curriculum, the amount of lecture time thatfaculty can afford to allocate to such active learning activities is very limited.

One engineerdescribed the need for diversity in engineering in order to innovate: “The advances come whenyou’re sort of looking at—you’re applying something new to a different area and you’re bringingin people who haven’t looked at it before.” Others refer to the importance of collaborations andcollaborative work in generating advances in technology, especially between different fields (ex.mechanical engineering and psychology to advance mental health technologies), collaborationsbetween university research facilities and industry

Questions relating to a homework experience in a STEM course that the student would describe as “positive.” a. Initial questions asked for the name of the course, and the type(s) of homework utilized in the course. The name of the professor was asked, but was optional. b.

According to the rubric, this shouldautomatically drop all three students to no higher than “underachieved,” as one of the two piecesof evidence for achievement is not demonstrated. However, we can see that for students A and B,the graders assigned marks of “partially achieved” and “fully achieved.” This immediatelyindicates that the grader is either not using the rubric, does not understand the rubric, or does notcare to follow the rubric and reasonably indicates insufficient oversight (given that this

The secondvariation, Start alone, End almost together, while similar in philosophy to Start alone, Endtogether, tends to be more casual and less structured.
