Educational Resources (OER) are freely accessible, open licensed materials that can includetext, media, or other digital formats and are created for teaching, learning, and supporting research[1–4]. OER and Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) are changing the ways in which peoplelearn all over the world [5, 6]. These new approaches to education are a response to the lack ofaccess to and the increasing cost of education throughout the developing and developed world.Overcoming the disparity in educational access worldwide, and even just within the United States,is a long-term goal of OER and MOOCs, but to be successful will require the support of gov-ernments and agencies that regulate education [7]. Another benefit to OER is a reduced cost tostudents

Neither were improvementactions shared, thus in this aspect, faculty efforts were autonomous and isolated.Beginning in 2011, we implemented curricular reform based on the CDIO Syllabus 2.0 [5] [6],which takes the evolution and consolidation of knowledge and skills along the curriculumbuilding blocks into account. At that point, we used the CDIO Syllabus 2.0 (linked to Standard3) as a resource for curriculum benchmarking. We did not use the complete CDIO framework,which includes twelve Standards focused on program improvement. As a result, the curricularcontent of the courses of a given block or area began to exhibit

sametextbook, students often perceive the course sections differently. Different combinations ofonline and paper homework formats were used, and the problems assigned varied in volume,implementation, and complexity. In each section, different pedagogies were used, and the depthto which some topics were covered varied with the instructor. Because each section tookdifferent exams graded by different instructors, there was no uniform measure of students’preparedness levels for later engineering mechanics courses. This paper describes efforts toimprove consistency across sections by implementing a common course framework developedby the instructors teaching the different sections. This framework includes common online andon-paper homework assignments, and

These include the ability to: • grade student submissions online in any location, • change the point value associated with a particular mistake once and apply to the entire population, • quickly reference similar mistakes instead of rewriting the same comment, • retain a digital record of the student work, and • return feedback digitally outside of classroom time.The online rubric-based grading tool can facilitate feedback that is prompt, equitable,explanatory and formative.

For the remaining two courses, high studentworkload and the lack of time to cover the syllabus in the allotted time steered the decisiontowards adding another credit unit for that those courses, and this was accomplished byintroducing discussion sections.

Cooperative learning, which can beincorporated in classes of any size, enables students to improve their social and team-workingskills.

Also,several of the readings offer practical guidance for incorporating and assessing student writingassignments. The second half of the MIWE course is largely focused on allowing facultymembers to revise the class they intend to teach MIWE-style. They revise the syllabus anddesign at least one formal writing assignment that will be added to the course work.Throughout the MIWE course, faculty are encouraged to view writing as process rather thanproduct; this places more emphasis on the learning that happens during and as a result of writingrather than on the grade that a given writing

Turochy [22] gave the example of “aninstitution located in a large metropolitan area may place a higher value on a multimodalapproach (including coverage of mass transit systems) than an institution in a small collegetown” (p. 202).The increase of information technology applications, including simulations, in recent years hascreated the need to educate future engineers on the use of them and how to interpret theiroutputs.

Ella’s challenges with executive functioning combined with her high anxiety and former reliance on a regular planning with instructors may not coincide well with a course that is individualistic and self-paced. Such a course may not typically have a syllabus with clearly defined deadlines. Also, because instructors and faculty members are responding in real time to student work, being able to anticipate or plan for long-term learning objectives becomes very
