This is due to the OR-heavy areas that were shadowed by 2014’s Groups 1and 5 as compared to the clinic-heavy areas shadowed by 2015’s Groups 2 and 4. These hoursare also highly dependent on flexibility of clinician and availability of the clinical schedule forthe students- some clinician’s staff have confirmed schedules weeks in advance whereas othersmust operate on a more spontaneous schedule that does not allow the DeFINE students, who livebetween 0.5-1 hours from the clinical site, to always
the importance of attendance on student success has been gained.The research project is far from completion. The opportunity to examine the impacts ofattendance on individual students as they progress through their academic years towardgraduation can be examined. There is still much to investigate leading to new discoveries andfindings uncovering facts that can be utilized to guide and advise students on ways to besuccessful during their college experience. Exactly where the new direction of the study will gois unknown. One future area of research could be to focus on specific reasons for poorattendance that correlate with a drop off in grades.Bibliography 1. Armstrong, J.

Many professors passalong papers they have been asked to review to their graduate students to give them practice inan activity that will become common in their professional careers.Peer review of oral presentations may be most prevalent in graduate TA training courses forstudents who are not native speakers of English. Van Ginkel et al.’s study of 52 publicationscovering the topic of oral presentations and peer assessment in higher education over a 20-yearperiod included none specifically on the graduate level in engineering.6 It thus appears that thepedagogy has not been widely disseminated to graduate-level engineering courses; work at theUniversidad de Málaga in Spain is a notable exception in the literature

Its use was uniquely justified when astudy was impossible to do experimentally because of itssize (too big such as the universe or too small such assubatomic systems), environmental conditions (too hot ordangerous) or cost.

For example, for Cultural SelfAwareness (Knowledge), criteria for meeting the Benchmark Level is “Shows minimal awareness of own cultural rules and biases (even those shared with own cultural group(s)) (e.g. uncomfortable with identifying possible cultural differences with others.)” To achieve the Capstone level of this construct, one must articulate “insights into own cultural rules and biases (e.g. seeking complexity; aware of how her/his experiences have shaped these rules, and how to recognize and respond to cultural biases, resulting in a shift in selfdescription.)”.

designlongevity stems from its low cost, ease of use, and stable operation2. Common applications arethe generation of pulses, oscillator waveforms, and timing signals. External resistors andcapacitors control timing delays and operating frequencies. A versatile application circuit usingthis IC requires a power supply (e.g. a 9-V battery), a breadboard, a few resistors, capacitor(s),and an output device. With this IC providing versatile functions in a low-cost and easy-to-use package, circuits canbe constructed quickly to address such questions as “What makes a light blink and a buzzersound?” or “What happens internally when a button is pushed?” Design, e.g. changing theoutput function and changing the circuit timing, can be incorporated with simple
