Based on the results of our study and studies done in literature by Felder, we highly recommendthat any educators teaching summer courses should consider using our approach as a modelwhen designing their own courses.Bibliography1.

Here, we describe a cost-effective, sustainable biomaterialslaboratory for juniors using inquiry-guided instruction at a large public university.The four laboratory components focused on key biomaterial topics and lasted for two-to-threeweeks. During the first week, students were provided with available materials pertaining to themodule and worked with group members and instructor(s) to devise and test a custom hypothesisinstead of using “cookie cutter” lab manuals. In the second week, students performedexperiments to test their hypotheses. During the last week, students either continued to performdata collection or complete

combination of BayesianKnowledge Tracking and Performance Factor Analyses approaches, are also briefly described.IntroductionGames can be effective learning tools in classroom settings. This fact has been demonstrated ina wide variety of disciplines, across a large range of ages, and over a long period of time. Indeed,successful examples of ‘computerized’ games used in university settings may be identified as farback as the 1960’s when computers were still in their infant stages. For example, Raia1 describesthe effective utilization of a computerized game to teach business management skills at theUniversity of Maryland in 1966.A consistent plea from industries over decades has been the need for universities to train studentsto handle the complexities
