is disappointing that not all students can sit in the room’s best seats. Inour class and many others, we believe those seats are typically situated in the front and middle columns of the room.To develop our OML list, we first rank ordered the students belonging to the test group strictly by their GPAs. Wechose GPA because it has been identified as the best indicator for future course performance in previous research[12]. Once the initial ranking was completed, teachers were instructed to consider each student’s SAT-Math scoreand programming experience. In cases where students possessed significant programming experience, such as aprevious programming course or involvement in a programming project, instructors were asked to evaluate

Several teams were required to improvise and troubleshootas an error was made in assembly or different pieces than advertised were included in their kits. Following assembly, the students were asked to use the NXT brick, the „brain‟ of the robot, tocreate a simple program. The NXT brick‟s have object-oriented programming capability thatallows five commands to be programmed and executed. After familiarization with theprogramming language of the Mindstorm, the students were asked to investigate some of thesensors included in the kit by following instructions on connecting the sensors properly andverifying their correct operation.

For avariety of reasons, the “built environment” and the “natural environment” increasingly have beenidentified as “separate”. This separation of built and natural – with humans spending a majorityof their time in the built environment – contributes to a “disconnect” between humans andnature.
