Students wereasked on the initial assessment to place a star next to items with which they have little to noexperience and circle items with which they have extensive experience. In the final survey,students were asked to circle items for which they felt the laboratory improved their level ofunderstanding and cross out the items for which their level of understanding was not improved.No response was an option in both surveys.Students were also asked to provide feedback on the affective learning environment byindicating descriptive

The commonality ofaffective assessments underscores the importance of emotion in the learning process, especiallyin the context of game-based learning where play is an element of motivation. They write thatthe body of research on game-based learning in engineering, “nearly unanimously agree[s] thatstudents enjoy game-based learning” but there is a significant lack of studies demonstrating theimpact on learning outcomes. This is either due to a lack of validated measures (e.g. student self-assessment on individually developed surveys or questionnaires) or small sample sizes and/ormissing statistical analysis [8].While games may inspire thoughts of play, the two are overlapping but distinct topics in thecontext of education

Later, during my firstsemester as an assistant professor, I used similar activities, and the feedback from the students waspositive and encouraging. Meanwhile, I started to attend several workshops on teaching and activelearning methods. In my second semester as an assistant professor, I taught a laboratory class onsignal processing. I implemented basic active learning techniques in this course and likewisereceived promising feedback from the students. However, given the nature of the class, I concludedthat class time could be better utilized by one-on-one discussions with students to tailor thelaboratory time to individual student needs

acting,working, collaborating, etc.). Individual choice then is pressured by network peers to conform totheir normative processes and practices. In academia, challenges of interdisciplinarity can beparticularly strenuous. Engineering as a discipline can be viewed as a large network, but when youexamine engineering more closely, you understand that the various subdisciplines are strongnetworks with ties (connections) to the overarching network of engineering. Sometimes crossingdisciplinary lines, even from one subdiscipline of engineering to another can be particularlydifficult – especially as institutional factors (like Tenure & Promotion) are taken intoconsideration. Needless to say, this can be particularly challenging for those

Studies of social identitythreat have shown that women experience a lower sense of belonging and show more cognitiveand physiological vigilance when presented with the prospect of participating in male-dominatedevents compared to more gender-balanced events [33]. Women also report a lower sense ofbelonging than their male peers throughout the undergraduate [34], [35], [36] and graduate years[37], to the detriment of their studies and well-being.

Theiroutcomes were found similar to those of human tutoring on some restricted tasks. This may happenbecause of their embodiment, physical presence, which traditional teaching/learning technologiescannot provide. In [11], a review study was conducted on the use of robots in education especiallyfor the young children.

In addition, all candidates for promotion should have participated to some appropriate degree in activities of service to MU. While these criteria serve as general guidelines, outstanding candidates should not be deprived of promotion because of the uniqueness of their contribution.At face value, these criteria embody strategic ambiguity: they seem flexible in that they allow fortwo paths to promotion (leadership in teaching or scholarship), and they also leave open thepossibility that unique contributions could be

Similar to the writing acrossthe curriculum movement of years past, EAC proponents integrate the study of ethics intocourses in the major, rather than farming it out to a philosophy department.

Additionally, assigning conceptquestions [7] during a class period better engages students via the peer instruction activities ofgroup discussion and polling for self-assessment to sharpen their understanding of the key ideas.However, when EMAG is offered as a non-lab theory-oriented course as it traditionally has been,assigning a single hands-on semester-long project [8] captures students’ attention morecompletely by involving their tactile senses and focusing on a specific application. A suitablecourse-project also offers ample opportunity for construction, testing, experimentation, andcreative modification. As a work-in-progress, this paper presents results of a metal
