The ASC competition then serves as the model for the culminating event, in whichthese 12 students leverage their experience to assume a leadership role among their peers. Nearthe end of the second semester, students transition from their traditional capstone coursesequence to a culminating design event. During this transition, the 12 students who participatedin the ASC competition form teams of 12-15 students each, which they will lead as they competeacademically to “win” a design-build contract for a real project. Teams integrate students’experiences from four sub-disciplines represented in the major: construction, environmental,geotechnical, and structural engineering. Additionally, both faculty members and

Research indicates that peer and graduate student support cansignificantly contribute to international students' success [22], [27]. Developing academic-centered relationships with professors and peers is critical for sharing knowledge andexperiences, which can help international students overcome academic and social challenges.Although some international students report being too busy to engage in social activities,studies have shown that having a friend who understands their situation can be

When she was first asked to help compileand write this OER book, she was extremely excited. Once she began working on it, she began tofeel overwhelmed and found it quite daunting at the beginning. Although aspects of thedevelopment of the OER took numerous hours and became monotonous, she thoroughly enjoyedwriting her own sections and examples.

, students are subject to widely held human psychologicalneeds: the desire for esteem and recognition in the eyes of their instructor and peers, and the evenstronger influence of their fears of negative evaluation. Grades provide a standardized andstructural means of providing this recognition or judgment. All too often, instructors use gradesas one of the sole means to give students feedback, without attention to coaching and other formsof feedback not tied to the “carrot” or the “stick” of a specific grade.As grades represent a point of continuous and structurally endorsed feedback for students, themessaging sent by the grade that students receive can overwrite their own self-concept, i.e.whether they are good at the subject matter or have the

Through this literature review, we aim to identify gaps in currentmentoring approaches for minority graduate and undergraduate students in STEM fields anddevelop a new mentoring strategy that addresses their specific needs and challenges. Historically, academic mentorship has concentrated on learning rather than careerdevelopment or psychosocial needs (Ensher, 1997; Stromei, 1998). According to research,undergraduate students who are mentored had higher GPAs, greater retention rates, and moreunits finished each semester than their unmentored peers (Campbell and Campbell 1997).Mentoring addresses key aspects of student identification and social integration into

With a progressive seriesof student assignments, in-class activities, and weekly retrospective writing assignments,students are guided to reflect on class experiences. These tasks help students to use classroomlearning to inform future decisions. Recognizing the diverse strengths and backgrounds of ourstudents, the assignments

In the formal stageof the socialization process, the student receives formal instruction regarding the role. The student, as anapprentice, observes older students in the same role of pursuing a Ph.D. and learns the normativeexpectations of the role.

Some instructors have even been successful implementing distributedpair programming in an online course [5]. However, in a flexible schedule, online format (Flex),the implementation of these activities is particularly challenging. In the Flex format, studentsstart the course at different points in the semester, work at their own pace and may not beworking on the same module at the same time. The asynchronous nature of the class makes itparticularly difficult for students to interact with each other. We propose the use of discussionboards within the learning management system to help create peer-to-peer code sharingexperiences in a Flex class. In this
