Percentages, measures of centraltendency, such as the mean, median and mode were examined as well as demographic distributions.Qualitative data included semi-structured interviews with participants, and aimed to delve further intohow engineering instructors learned about various active learning strategies, why they decided toimplement them in their course(s), what kinds of support they received as well as any challenges theyhad, and how they overcome those challenges. This qualitative data was analyzed following a recursiveand spiral pattern to code for recurring themes and

As part of this program, students are expected totake part in a variety of professional development activities including faculty and peermentoring, industry tours, tutoring, and internship preparation assistance. This institution islocated in a rural area with many first-generation college students in the engineering studentpopulation. The institution also accepts many students into the engineering program who mayneed an additional

So, conceivably after about 10 years of study and work the individualmight have failed in the pursuit of an academic career and some major or minor career changecould be necessary. A negative aspect of pursuing a Ph.D. is that, if a teaching position is notavailable, having the Ph.D. degree might in some cases reduce employment opportunities. In thecase of a traditional engineering position, the candidate might be viewed

Most field studies have abroadly ethnographic goal, namely to adequately and thickly describe the specific qualities ofpractices, to understand and represent the meaning of those practices for people who participatein them, and to understand unique and locally situated forms of work culture and socialorganization. In the context of engineering practices, field studies have largely been conducted inthe workplace using observations and interviews. These include studies across both disciplinesand time, beginning with pioneering works such as Barnes’ comparative, observational study oftechnical groups in industry [5], and Youngman et al.’s in-depth, multi-modal analysis ofengineering job roles and work activities [6].

In addition, Lee S. Shulman, president emeritus of the Carnegie Foundationfor the Advancement of Teaching, has long encouraged teaching faculty to engage in scholarlysystematic research in the practice of teaching and learning. He argues that it is “only when westep back and reflect systematically on the teaching we have done, in a form that can be publiclyreviewed and built upon by our peers, that we have moved from scholarly teaching to thescholarship of teaching” [15, p. 1].Active learning exercises emphasizing the design process as a
connected to the bus with minimal pins needed for each sensor. Theprotocol works by sending a start condition (S) from the Pi to one of the sensors, followed by thedevice address. The address for each sensor is a unique, seven-bit address that is written usingbits one through seven. This is used to identify each device that the Pi is powering [12]. The Pithen sends instructions in the bit zero to the sensor so that it knows to collect data from itsenvironment, allowing the Pi to read from the sensor, and the sensor sends a message back to thePi acknowledging its instructions before data is read from it. As shown in Figure 1, when the Pihas received all of the bits and it is time for it to read data from a different sensor, it must send astop
