after the first or secondMidterm exam. Those who barely pass the class with a letter grade D are required to repeat theclass to get a grade C or better to enroll in upper division classes where Fluid Mechanics is oneof the prerequisite courses. This setback significantly delays their graduation time.To increase better understanding of the first Midterm’s course materials and improve the averagescore of the first Midterm, students require more time to practice the theory of fluid statics. Thispaper describes a simple change in the course syllabus that was adopted to allow students withmore time to grasp the challenging concepts of the first Midterm. The purpose of this study is toimprove students’ success rate in the class with specific goal of

. Both students and instructors require support. Student and instructional needs may differ, but lack of support leads to low satisfaction in both groups.• Clear and specific specifications for the student’s computer hardware, software, and telecommunications must be published prior to course registration so that enrolling students can be ready to participate in the online course.• Students should be trained on how to effectively use the Centra (or Adobe Connect) system.

During the first two class meetings, the instructor introduced the course and courseobjectives, and discussed the first of the topics – interpersonal communication. During thesecond period, the instructor distributed a conflict questionnaire, and the group discussed theirindividual results. The rest of the face-to-face sessions were reserved for team presentations anddemonstration of the final project.The online sessions allowed students to work individually on Web-based training (WBT)modules.

this study is to compare the objectives of the Security+ exam with the twoCisco Networking Academy security courses. The Security+ certification exam objectives covermost of the basics of security and they can be integrated into the first security course of most ITprograms. Finally, a master course syllabus that covers the Security+ exam objectives isdeveloped to map each course objective with its corresponding certification objective. It isanticipated that colleges and universities will benefit from this study by using the proposedcourse syllabus as a framework for integrating the Security+ certification exam objectives intotheir curriculum.IntroductionCertification establishes a standard of competency in specific areas of the IT field which

A corresponding summary has yet to be established for online instruction. Therefore, we explore the following research questions: RQ1: What barriers do instructors expect to experience when adopting active learning in online instruction? RQ2: How do the barriers instructors expect to experience when adopting active learning in online instruction differ from those for in-person instruction? We recruited instructors who used or planned to use active learning in teaching a STEMcourse for first- and/or second-year

underpinning, which aims to make them useful for as many as possible. But it doesn’t override the need to address individual student needs. It is important to note that even a course or experienced designer with a UD approach will not necessarily be appropriate for all students. For example, individuals are very different, even students with the same diagnosis. Students will still need accommodations on an individual basis. ● Thus, while using a UD approach to course design tends to make the course accessible for more students by accounting for variety, it does not account for everything.Acknowledging a Diverse Student Population● Increasing recognition of diversity ○ Including students with non-visible

Educational Resources (OER) are freely accessible, open licensed materials that can includetext, media, or other digital formats and are created for teaching, learning, and supporting research[1–4]. OER and Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) are changing the ways in which peoplelearn all over the world [5, 6]. These new approaches to education are a response to the lack ofaccess to and the increasing cost of education throughout the developing and developed world.Overcoming the disparity in educational access worldwide, and even just within the United States,is a long-term goal of OER and MOOCs, but to be successful will require the support of gov-ernments and agencies that regulate education [7].
