better.Story as a Way to Understand Meaning Stories etch grooves deep enough for people to follow in the same way that water follows certain paths down a mountainside. And every time fresh actors tread the path of the story, the groove runs deeper. [1]For decades, researchers have realized that the stories we tell are important artifacts of what wevalue and how we find meaning. Schrank’s study of artificial intelligence included a deep diveinto how the stories we tell relate to human memory and understanding [2]. Further, he notes thatboth the act of telling a story and the process of listening to someone else’s story shape thememories we have of our experiences.

school students to improve the effectiveness of K-12 STEM education.The review results in [10] state that social robots can be used in education as tutors or peer learners.The social robots have been proven effective at improving cognitive and affective outcomes. Theiroutcomes were found similar to those of human tutoring on some restricted tasks. This may happenbecause of their embodiment, physical presence, which traditional teaching/learning technologiescannot provide. In [11], a review study was conducted on the use of robots in education especiallyfor the young children. In [12], a systematic survey was conducted to explore the educationalpotential of robotics in schools. In [13], the authors explored the application of robotics in

Since the team wins or loses each week, there are immediateresults to assess performance. With a different opponent each week, there is always a need tomake new adjustments, and for captains to play a role in preparing the position players toperform well. In addition, there were ten first-year engineers on the football team, part of thenew crop of ‘rookies’. This enabled us to also examine their experience with the KGI/MBTItraining model in our seminar, and see how it might begin to connect to their involvement withthe team.So our study looks at two different populations of engineers, highlighted by our three upper

These interventions can be made gradually—first, for example, by assigningextra-credit opportunities for those students re-writing problems, then by allowing problemrewriting sessions (with a TA) every other week, then incorporating them in exams. It is clearthat initially, integrating SJ may provoke discomfort and seem outside any given instructor’s areaof expertise; however, with time and gradual integration, along with examples of suchintegration like those below, instructors should notice greater comfort and, more

I argue that asstudents, teachers, and researchers, we equate the minds of those who occupyeconomic and social margins with the possession of marginal intellect whenwe set out to help or aid them without recognizing the validity of andvalorizing their ways of knowing. Learning how members of socially andeconomically marginalized communities apply their minds, mouths, handsand feet to solve locally occurring problems may help us interrogate ourscholarly, pedagogical, and ethical objectives in a more reflexive manner.  Drawing on ethnographic research and writing

comparison of the InterdisciplinaryExperimental Engineering Project Course to a capstone course is offered in this paper.I. IntroductionMost engineering and technology programs require their undergraduate students to take a seniordesign/capstone course to complete the degree. Most capstone courses are yearlong or a semesterlong, are specific to the student’s major, and are designed to demonstrate, in some way, thestudent’s knowledge of the discipline. To fulfill the requirements of a capstone course, thestudent accomplishes a field-specific project by herself/himself and is required to prepare apaper, a presentation, and/or poster to present the project before a group of peers. In some cases,industrial advisory board members are invited to the

It has been shown that ifstudents have a strong, positive conviction about their knowledge in engineering, then they aremore likely to succeed academically in the specific subject, as

(3) Personalqualities - individual responsibility, self-esteem and self-management, sociability andintegrity. The committee argued that each subject of the school curriculum couldcontribute to the development of these competencies and presented matrices todemonstrate their point at any level K - 12. The problem with that approach is that thesubjects of the curriculum may lose their integrity. If they don’t the students may not beat a sufficient level of development (in Piagetian/Perry terms) to

Finally, the data was collected over several months. Thus it is possible for astudent‟s perceptions to have changed over that time. The choice of a semi-structured interviewas the second data collection method was made in attempts to mitigate this limitation bycapturing any changes in perceptions. By recognizing the existence of these limitations andattempting to mitigate them throughout the research design, the results of this study still providean important contribution to the examination of students
