All the original questionsfrom sections (i) and (iii) were maintained and supplemental questions were added. Section (ii)was modified to reflect class activities that had occurred since the mid-semester survey. Specificquestions will be discussed in greater detail in the following section analyzing student feedback.Summary of Student FeedbackEighteen of the twenty students enrolled in the DBE course consented to participate in theresearch study, sharing their assessment of this new curriculum.

Thecourse card contains the key competencies to be developed, the general objectives and thegeneral learning strategies. The course syllabus contains the detailed course learning goals andlearning units. The reflective memo contains the faculty self-assessment report about learningstrategies and explains how learning strategies support the achievement of competencies andlearning goals. The student outcome leader and faculty involved in the courses associated withthe outcome discuss the assessment findings and identify improvement opportunities and

As reflected inprevious quotes, this created a sense of belonging in engineering. These students created anatmosphere of acceptance and affirmation for themselves, but it expanded to the campus and waslikewise, recognized by NSBE regional.

The indirect measureincluded a pre and post questionnaire (before and after project experience) in which thewording was slightly modified based on the reflections of the instructor and informed bythe continuous improvement process. Additionally, video lectures/documentaries of real-world construction projects were shown to the students followed by assessment of thestudents. Such assessments included a post-questionnaire that included assessment oflearning outcomes and objective based questions, which were graded. The direct measuresincluded homework grades, in

The FCAR generally contain the following information: • Course Description • Course Outcomes • Class Grade Distribution • Course Outcomes Assessment • Student Outcomes Assessment • Reflection • Proposed Action ItemsThe main idea is to capture the reflection and proposed action items for improvement of coursestaught at the grass-roots by the responsible instructors.

Inthese reports, students are asked to discuss the results from both the standard tensile tests andnanowire simulations and to complete a simple problem related to calculating the Schmid factorfor FCC slip. Specifically, the following questions are asked:1. How does the yield stress of a copper nanowire compare to the yield stress of copper sample? Why is there a difference or similarity in strength? Hint: refer to your group worksheet.2. How does the Young’s modulus of a copper nanowire compare to that of the macroscale copper sample? Why is there a difference or similarity

They may have perceived the travel experience to be less valuablebecause of staying in the U.S. and merely traveling to another part of the country. Even so, theyall agreed that, based on what they learned upon project completion, they value the travel muchmore and would take the time in the future to meet design colleagues face-to-face and completesite visits, if funds were available.ConclusionsWe have reflected on the findings of the interviews, on their observations of learning while theprojects were under way, and observations from prior inter

The first pair, level of complexity (C-S) describes anindividual’s comfort zone for engaging complex system problems. The second pair, level ofautonomy (G-A), describes an individual’s inclination in dealing with integration of multiplesystems or internal systems. For instance, (G)-type systems thinkers focus more on applying aglobal perspective and treat the system as an integrated unit.

They also reportedspending significantly more time completing homework assignments than their on-campus peers.This is consistent with the reported value of each area of effort – distance students valuedhomework significantly higher than on-campus students. All students reported a high value tothe pre-class learning modules.Results from Table 13 are most interesting for what the numbers don’t report – the comments inthe ‘It Depends’ category. Most comments reflected a general skepticism by students regardingcourses that are presented as being ‘flipped’. Much of this seemed to be based on
