BSET graduate. It is aminor point, as most industry opportunities do not require PE certification for opportunities, thusthe BSET graduate is on an equal footing in most career opportunities.ConclusionThe question remains, which avenue should you pursue? It depends! If you enjoy mathematics,using the knowledge to solve complex problems in design projects, then the BSE may be thecorrect choice. On the other hand, if you would rather work with your hands using theknowledge base gained in school, then the BSET may be the proper choice. Either choice is agood one, so decide your strong points and interests and let the chips fall where they may! Enjoyyour career as an Engineer or Technologist, the choice is up to you. Proceedings of

The most basic are “think-pair-share” exercises, where studentsthink about a problem, discuss it with their neighbors, and then share it with the rest of the class.Teams may work together in class to solve problems, with the instructor providing writtencomments. Bringing competition into the picture always helps motivate students, e.g., havingfinal projects compete against each other (e.g., a prey/predator game), or playing a Jeopardy-likegame to review for an exam. Many such activities can be

Likewise,the faculty regularly use paper-and-pencil exams during class time but only oneperson uses electronically-submitted exams administered during class time.Generally, our faculty do not currently use take-home exams, either paper-and-pencil or with electronic submission. The faculty are split on the extent to whichthey use laboratory activities and associated reports to assess student learning ingraduate courses. On the other hand, projects, which are completed outside ofclasstime and may involve group work, are often used in our graduate curriculum.Similarly, graduate student learning is
