The responder has to become aware of her response(s)to the produce or service being delivered and, in some cases, evaluate her behavior.Faculty should perform assessment. Assessment activities should occur throughout the academicyear. By including tests, quizzes, assignments, and projects, students would know when thosemajor activities would occur (via the syllabus). Most of the assessment activities would occurduring lectures, labs, and learning community activities (outside of the classroom/lab). Themajority of the activities would be informal in nature.

a model for diversity at theUniversity.Hostile Conditions for Women at URIUntil the mid 1990’s, there was never more than 1-2 female faculty in the College ofEngineering at the University of Rhode Island. In 1997, the number of women faculty hadincreased to three out of 68 faculty members, which at 4.4%, was typical of US nationalaverages. However, in quick succession the URI Engineering College lost two new assistant Page 11.143.4professors in one department, and the College of Engineering was becoming known as a hostileplace for women. There were many stories about the chilly climate and a number of womenfaculty members and graduate

Thecomputational thinking tool introduced in this project helped students to approach problemsfrom different perspectives and to come up with novel and creative solutions. Overall thesuccess of this project was tremendous, and it gave the pilot school a project-based learningproject to integrate into its STEM curricula.AcknowledgementThis material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under GrantNo. CNS-0939059, 0939088, and 0939028.

Specifically, 94,788 unique students (~76% of the initial enrollments) were active inthe course (i.e., logged in to participate at least once), with 13,811 students active in the lastweek (~11% of the initial enrollments). Figure 3 shows a graph of the number of “activestudents” from week to week – i.e., students who logged in and participated in the course viacore video views or downloads, quiz/exercise/project submissions, and/or discussion forumactivity.

interesting to certain groups ofpeople. For example, in the survey that was conducted, while both boys and girls found themessage “Engineering makes a world of difference” most appealing, girls’ second mostappealing message was “Engineering is essential to our health, happiness, and safety” whileboys’ second most appealing message was “Engineers are creative problem solvers.” Therecommendations from the report suggest that targeting certain messages to certain groups(audience segmentation) may be the most effective means of branding engineering in a positiveway. In fact, recommendation 2 says: “The choice of a specific message should be based on thedemographics of the target audience (s)”1 (p. 12).In the end, NAE suggested four main messages to be

In this case, the overall goal of the course can be seen as its mission. Table 1: Goals and Learning Objectives of the E101 Course, Fall 2001 Goals and Objectives of the Course: This course is designed to introduce students to the field of Engineering and the study of Engineering. Objective: Students will be able to integrate computer usage, teamwork, problem solving, and verbal/written language into a design project within the
