Therefore, NSTI offered at Rowan University continues to have a long-termimpact on the students.ACKNOWLEDGEMENTThe authors would like to acknowledge the USDOT, the Federal Highway Administration, and the NewJersey Department of Transportation/Division of Civil Rights for funding this study through the NationalSummer Transportation Institute.References1.

Robinson’s ethics teaching style comes from an amalgam of academic, industrial (Bell Labs), governmen- tal (VA) and clinical experiences, plus an interest in ethics from his undergraduate days.Ms. Loretta Driskel, Clarkson University Since the late 1990’s Loretta’s passion has been to create engaging, diverse teaching and learning ex- periences for students and faculty.

its firstyear of operation, we summarize the current state of the program and make some suggestionsabout the future of the program.Background and LiteratureThe term, data science, likely coined in 2001 by W. S. Clevland [2], has had a number ofdefinitions. For the purposes of this paper, we focus on considering data science as a disciplinethat combines the fields of computer science, mathematics, statistics, and information technologybut with a focus on the generation, organization, modeling, and use of data to make scientific andbusiness decisions. Needless to say, a distinguishing feature of data science is the centrality of‘data’ to the mission of the discipline and its professionals. Data science programs shouldproduce data scientists
assessments (i.e., particularexam questions pass rate, written reports, etc.). The report may not consider the learning processstudents had during their course(s) or throughout their undergraduate program. In other words,assessment-centric self-study reports are not concerned with existing pedagogical practices anddata on how and why engineering students achieve the desired competencies of the requiredoutcomes. Given the emphasis of ABET on continuous improvement, it is surprising, andantithetical to commonly accepted quality assurance and continuous improvement processes, thatABET processes do not formally require student perceptions of their achievement of the studentoutcomes. Although employers and faculty are both recognized as
responses? Analyze and code homework assignments for connection and curiosity. Correlate participants’ homework with the five curiosity factors.We also hope in the second iteration of the course to increase the sample size of the data set.References 1.

By comparing Figure 6(c) and the terms we highlight in Figure 6(a), we observe that thewords most frequently cited overall seem to approximately map to the POED most frequentlywritten about by individuals. We note the frequent use of the word ‘team,’ and the fact thatPOED 1, which deals with several issues pertinent to team formation, organization, andmanagement, both represent areas frequently explored by individuals in the LS. Similarly, weobserve that ‘concept(s)’ were extremely well represented in the writing samples. Those wordscould refer to

The proposed program consists of anintegrated approach to increase the number and graduation rate of undergraduate students whoenroll in the College of Engineering. As financial constraints are a major disincentive forstudents to enroll and persist in higher education, this project combines scholarships with otherforms of academic and professional support to ensure student persistence and completion of aB.S.
