So, the EILRubric provides teachers with a lesson assessment tool to evaluate the strengths and missedopportunities for teaching engineering in existing lessons [11].MethodsPedagogical FoundationBorrowing from Foster and from Peterman, et al. the idea to deliberately insert engineeringthinking into required high school science courses, a pedagogical and experiential foundation isneeded.

inmany industries and a valuable skill for an engineer to possess.Integrating engineering learning into projects that benefit the community is rewarding on manylevels. Recipients get access to things that didn’t yet exist or they can’t afford while studentsdevelop new skills and gain valuable, resume building, experience. Further, students get realwork experience working with “clients” while wrestling with balancing function, durability,fabrication time, cost, scheduling, planning, communication, ergonomics, user experience, etc.Finally, service learning projects build and reinforce strong relationships between educators,their administration, and their communities. From our experience, ideal service projects are onesthat benefit the community or

After they were enrolled, studentswere sent a message from the course instructor explaining why they were enrolled in the pilotEngineering Math course and the expected benefits of completing the course. The tone of themessaging was especially important for several reasons: the course was not included in anyengineering degree planning flowcharts, was not a required course for any engineering major,and required that students take Engineering Math in addition to Pre-Calculus their first semester.1 Of note, 10 years ago, CU Boulder’s engineering college did not offer a Pre-Calculus course.

Specifically, students are divided into groups and get involvedin the planning phase of learning from the beginning, which includes selections of topic andapproaches to conducting their investigation. After selecting a topic or project, students completeit via active-study, e.g., reading textbooks, searching for technical papers, programming, troubleshooting, evaluation, etc.The significance of project-oriented cooperative learning strategy has been explored in electricalpower systems classes [4] [5], but it has not reported any project-oriented instructions in computernetworking.

collecting this data from students. Ourrationale and plans are summarized below: • Our project specifically works with a cohort of non-tenure track ranks (e.g., instructors, professors of practices, collegiate assistant professors) for whom quality of teaching is arguably even more critical than in the dossiers of tenure-track/tenured rank faculty. We feel it is important for us (as an institution) to understand these phenomena to put data in context and to continuously improve our measures of teaching quality. For example, it could be useful for an instructor and for departmental evaluators to know that some courses might be subject to systematic penalties because of the course itself (e.g., some of
