theirinstructional plans accordingly. The students in the construction courses continuouslyparticipate in group assessment, giving the instructor an opportunity to adjust the goals andinstruction methodology. For example, in one of the courses course, repeated references to lackof adequacy of the textbook promoted the instructor to provide additional handouts andincrease frequency of short lectures and subsequently change the text in the following semester.So assessment in true sense is not only the evaluation of performance of the students, but theevaluations of the course as well as the instruction. Assessment is one component of theTeaching-Learning-Assessment- Improvement loop.Definitions – As Articulated by the Indian UniversityProgram Educational

gamedesign class was offered as a technical elective. This class combined a “humanities” viewpoint ofvideo game design (e.g. gaming psychology, theory of fun) with the “technical” side of computerprogramming and physics engines. Students compared and contrasted two games and wrote acritical analysis of a game. The majority of the class was spent conceptualizing, planning andcreating a video game. Groups learned the required programming skills as needed to implementtheir vision. Students completed a survey at the conclusion of the course. Generally, students foundthe course exercised their creative skills, motivated them to learn more programming and providedthem experience in project management.Keywordsvideo games, computer programming, elective

Students also suggest that the selection and assignment of the projects shouldbe in the beginning of the semester because they think more time was needed to complete theprojects. This is because the projects were assigned in the third week of the semester due tologistics required to obtain the projects as well as develop the project plans and form the teams.In addition, the course instructor along with the industry partner needed to identify severalprojects and select the ones that fit the course content and benefit both the students and thecompany.

So in addition togiving students more hands-on experience of the physical activity/phenomenon called “torsion”or “torqueing,” the goals of this lab are (1) measure torsional material property (yield strength,ultimate strength) for regular grade steel bolts, (2) understand the use of torsion formula in dataanalysis and lab planning, (3) understand the use and limitations of material properties data fromengineering literature/handbooks, (4) understand that material property is a statisticalphenomenon, i.e., it has a spread, (5) develop a physical sense of

true. There are three mainreasons why the picture data recorded fewer coaching sessions. Firstly, the number of photos to go through manually was enormous. And therefore, only pictures of six cameras out of eight were analyzed, the images from camera 7 and 8 will be analyzed in the future. The analyzed time-lapse covered seven teams out of nine. Secondly, the cameras were not working as planned. Camera 2 was barely taking time-lapse images at all, and several cameras had some sort of problem, or the cards ran out of memory (cameras 1, 3, 4, and 5). Camera 6 was the only one that functioned according to the plan the whole time, which was taking the time-lapse of team Curium. Third is that the teams were not always

Incidentally, the educational model is similar to the model that is used and taught inSTEM courses such as Software Engineering, Project Management, and Quality Assurancecourses

rapport in the classroom. An important aspect of the Teaching Circle is that it is aimed for large, lecture-style classrooms, where it is difficult to build rapport. Rapport in a classroom is very beneficial, especially in large lectures [8].• Questions 229 and 230 focus on instructor preparedness. One of the major barriers to bringing active learning strategies cited previously was lack of time to prepare new lesson plans. When transitioning to a new teaching style, faculty may struggle with preparation of new lectures, homework, and other materials. The Teaching Circle aims to mitigate that by providing a support structure where faculty can discuss implementation strategies and have designated time to work
