Some have even mentioned using activities from the website that were not part of thetrack they attended at the workshop but fit their classroom curriculum. There was a wide breadthin the ways teachers implemented their classroom kits. Some teachers mentioned they use theactivity as an introduction to a new concept, while others used them as hands on reinforcement ofa concept they had already taught in a traditional fashion. Teachers who used the kits mentionedthat they encouraged them to try new teaching strategies in their classrooms

However, the data was collected across6-7 sections of the course taught by different instructors in each of the two years during whichdata was collected. Therefore, the data should reflect some averaging. For example, if oneinstructor taught sustainability well and with enthusiasm in one class, while another taught thetopic poorly, then the responses of students from one class should offset the responses from theother class when the data is pooled.Summary and Conclusions A survey-based study of first-year engineering students was conducted at the University ofNew Haven to determine their personality types and interest in topics such as visualization

This knowledge helps createsbalanced teams which is critical to ensuring healthy competition in the fourth phase. During the competition, teams assume the identity of a design-build firm, dividing upindividual roles by sub-discipline as outlined previously. Team leaders are charged withproviding overall guidance and ensuring the final products reflect a fully coordinated design andconstruction plan between sub-disciplines. Teams compete to “win” the job by having the mosttechnically sound approach and best integrated design. Examining Table 1 highlights a few important similarities between The Crucible and theASC design-build

The question is not, How can I specify projects that will familarize students with thecourse content? but rather, How can I design projects that will help students find their role inpromoting their own learning and that of their classmates?

The prevalence of these rankings in the public mind have promptedmany universities to strengthen their enrollment management strategies in order to expandenrollments, maintain better balance across enrollment swings, and to manage their discountrates (amounts offered through financial aid) to keep their institutions solvent—a pressure that islikely only to intensify due to the fiscal impacts of the current COVID-19 pandemic. Manyinstitutions report that the downside of national rankings is that they do not accurately reflect thequality of education offered by their institution, and therefore do not make for an efficientmarket.

Though this is the case, it is worth noticing that team dynamics in Section 1 deteriorates in a statistically significant manner (see Table 7 where t = 1.38, nu = 29, and p<0.05) whereas there is no statistically significant difference when comparing answers to Question 2 (Q2) for pre- and post-project survey results in Section 2—see Table 12 where t = 0.83, nu = 41, and p>0.05.

Students typically acquire this skill byadolescence for objects they are familiar with [24]. He cautions, however, that if the object is notfamiliar, students may have difficulty in visualizing the object even while in college.
