We cameinto this project with a shared hypothesis that there is a missing focus on the science of learning,including the impact of interactions between faculty and students, in faculty development. Webelieve this is a key factor in why there is limited change in faculty beliefs and behaviorsregarding teaching and learning as a result of faculty development programs.Elements of our CoP programming that were successful as reported by our first cohort ofparticipants included

Marketers haverecognized girls are attracted to technology when it is social and involves relationshipswith others. One toy consultant remarked that the conventional wisdom is girls don’t likehigh-tech toys but the truth is girls like it but they want it to express who they are (3).Although the ultimate goal of marketers may be financial, the lessons learned are modelswe can all emulate.

Many newengineering students are surprised to learn that group work is encouraged, because they have notyet determined where the line between collaboration and copying is drawn. It is absolutelyessential that engineering faculty, especially those teaching introductory courses, help instillgood collaborative habits in their students and help them distinguish acceptable group behavior(working together) from bad ones (copying). This can be accomplished through collaborative in-class thought experiments, group homework assignments, and larger semester projects. Moststudents eventually figure out the benefits of group work, although helping them discover this asearly as possible in their

As part of an overalleffort to incorporate virtual reality with a single case study, the initial version of this module wasimplemented in the production systems course [17].MethodA primary aspect of this study was the concept of student motivation. Arnone [18] considers theconcept of curiosity and presents several instructional design strategies for fostering curiosity.The first strategy presented is to use ‘curiosity as a hook.’ The method in our study is to usecuriosity in the Virtual factory to get students interested in the task at hand.

Undoubtedly, engineeringstudents across the country are getting plenty of practice solving problems outside the classroomin the form of homework, but for most engineering programs, the only time professors get toobserve their students solving engineering problems might be during laboratory hours or whileadvising on a design project.

Especially when it comes to e-exams, onlineteaching makes it extremely difficult to deal with one serious problem: student dishonesty [1].To solve the problem many scholars [2][3][4] have proposed different methods, such as:●Design open-book exams●Use discussions, essay, and other written projects; reduce the percentage of exams●Use a large pool of questions to randomly generate exams for each student●Require students to take exams on siteIn order to reduce the possibility of e-cheating in our college, which uses Angel as the onlineteaching tools, we utilize the following measures to minimize the chance of e-cheating:●Divide a typical course into a number of modules.

This used in conjunction with the analytical method is the basis for thisstudy. The student will be able to plot the known forces graphically while also incorporating the formulasderived from the analytical method. Using the table command functions that AutoCad provides will enable the student to incorporateall these methods into one single project. This is the power of using AutoCad to solve problems in statics.In addition to coplanar force systems, AutoCad can also aid in solving various other problems in staticsand strength of materials.
