whether that class is a laboratory, alecture or a design class. Unfortunately, the form is usually directed toward classroomperformance in lecture classes with questions like: • Did instructor presented material clearly and effectively? • Did the instructor encouraged interaction with the class? • Was the teaching assistance available and helpful? • Did the facilities adequately met course needs?These questions hardly seem appropriate for a course with no lectures, with no teachingassistants and for studio courses that must be held in a lecture room because no otherfacilities are provided. Finally, instructor/student interaction is desirable for the studentwhen the student has the choice. When students are forced to participate
creating an aerospace laboratory, aerospace and rocketry program, and a rocketry team. One of the first tasks given byBASE 11 was to develop a Liquid Propellant Rocket that can reach an apogee of 150,000 ft by the year 2022. Rockets are nota modern-day invention. The first rocket designs date back to the year 1232 in early China. During that time, the Chinese wereusing rockets to prevent the advancement of Mongolian troops during the Battle of Kai-Keng (Benson, 2014). The nextdocumented milestone in rocketry came in 1926, when physics professor Robert Goddard launched the first-ever liquidpropellant rocket in Worcester, Massachusetts (Neufeld, 2016). Goddard’s invention would ultimately lay the groundwork forfuture high-altitude rocket launches

Theobjective has been to refine the model and material characteristics, until a nonlinear analysis andsimulation produces valid and comparable results to the laboratory prototype.

The physical connections will also help students continuing tojobs that include structural inspections or forensic analysis to identify connection failures in realworld conditions.Lastly, new specimens can be more easily created with the drawing set and the designspreadsheet developed for these simple connections in the project.

, visualization, analysis, and dissemination of information. However, there isa gap in literature that describes empirical studies of knowledge maps in engineering informationliteracy instruction.The purpose of this paper is to explore the effectiveness of knowledge maps in enhancingengineering information literacy instruction. With the knowledge maps, librarians can save timein preparing the library instruction materials. The maps can be used for in-class exercises andinformation literacy skills assessments. Engineering students can use the knowledge maps in theclass and for future reference and other learning activities such as laboratory research.The experiment was done in an information literacy instruction session for a senior-levelundergraduate

A biopsy is the only definitive way tomake a diagnosis of breast cancer. Biopsy samples are sent to a laboratory for analysis whereexperts determine whether the cells are cancerous. A biopsy sample is also analyzed to determinethe type of cells involved in the breast cancer, the aggressiveness (grade) of the cancer, andwhether the cancer cells have hormone receptors or other receptors that may influence yourtreatment options.In a Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA) biopsy, a very thin, hollow needle attached to a syringe isused to
suffered from the lack of practicalor laboratory sessions [12].Flipped classrooms may have different effects on students who demonstrate high and lowacademic performance (referred in this article as high and low achievers, respectively). Lowachievers could benefit more from the flexible pace of learning using videos and greaterinteraction with the instructor and peers in class, as has been demonstrated [35, 36]. However,Peterson [37] was not able to reach the same conclusion. In this study, one of the researchquestions we address is the extent to which flipped learning activities provide differentiatedinstruction for students who struggle to learn as much from lectures as their peers.The benefits of using flipped classrooms for instructors

howhis anti-colonial biology laboratory interacts respectfully with the animals they study, the landthey occupy, and the collaborators they work with and for. STS scholars show how care can bean important conceptual tool for thinking about technoscientific experts and activities broadly.Care may already be compromised, but it is nevertheless often presented as a tool forunderstanding, and sometimes even doing, good work.Considerations of care in medicine can also offer insights that bear on our work in education.Such scholarship provides tools relevant to us specifically because it explores questions aboutcare in practical, high-stakes situations. Medical anthropologists in particular have framedconsiderations of care in terms of help and hurt
