Hill looked atdata of studies on this subject from 1928 to 1964 and found that the results were consistent inshowing a drop in grade point average after transfer. Hill asked guidance counselors in highschools to inform their students that this transfer shock occurred and that a s a transfer student itwould probably take longer to graduate than native students at a four year school.As more students began to attend community colleges in the 1980s, more studies occurred ontransfer shock. During this time the studies showed that transfer students usually earned GPAs.20 to .30 points

the new measure of GTA‟s need assessment can be used as a reliable and valid toolacross institutions.IntroductionConcerns about recruitment and retention of students in engineering disciplines have resulted innumerous calls for reform in engineering education[1-3]. Regardless of the chosen response tosuch calls, it is clear that quality education requires the presence of instructors who have learnedto teach effectively. Unfortunately, because we often rely on “on-the-job” training, facultybecome skilled at teaching after receiving their doctoral degrees and “practicing” on students.For this reason, institutions commonly establish teaching effectiveness centers dedicated tofaculty development.

offavorite heuristics. For example, “assume the solution is known and try to determine whatproperties it might have” is a commonly used heuristic in many fields (e.g., physics, engineering,etc.)Beginning in the 1970’s, Schoenfeld began teaching mathematical problem solving, and hestarted observing and videotaping students while they struggled to solve different mathematicalproblems. Schoenfeld identified four different components to successful mathematical problemsolving performance3-6, and they are: 1. resources – the mathematical facts and procedures possessed by the problem solver 2. heuristics – problem solving strategies or techniques, 3. control – ability to select and implement the proper resources and strategies, and 4. belief
