AbstractBroadly stated, accountability for a regional university is value created versus cost.Value reflects social and economic needs of the community, state, and region. Cost ofcreating value is cost of implementation strategies to achieve institutional goals. The state’shigher education coordinating board, a university board, and faculty senate are proxiesfor engaging community, state, and regional stakeholders in institutional accountability.Complex endogenous and exogenous challenges require an effective means for allocatingresources within the organization, monitoring effectiveness of institutional strategies, and, asnecessary, adapting strategies to ensure institutional accountability.This paper examines these issues and recommends an

Thisshortage is due in-part to academic preparation disparities, which appear early in the elementaryschool years and continue into the 8th grade [1]; national test scores suggest that many U.S.students finish the middle grades underprepared in STEM subjects [1-5].

We also report on the changes the program had on youth perceptions of UAV/Drones:from considering UAVs as “toys” to realizing they can be used as “tools” to support science

This model depicts an idealized, cyclical relationship between research andpractice: a scenario in which practical issues drive research questions and research insightsinfluence what happens in practice. Unfortunately, this is rarely what happens in reality—mostof what happens in practice is not informed by research, nor is it properly assessed for accuracyof meeting objectives [3].

What this lack of definability likely means is leadership ismultifaceted, needing to be defined and bounded within the context in which the process is beingexamined. As such, the literature on leadership within particular domains (like engineering) tendsto reflect consensus, in spite of a lack of broader consensus across the field of leadership.While definitions of leadership vary widely, they can largely be placed into one of two groups.The first group, include those definitions that look at leadership as a set of traits that the mostsuccessful leaders have, the trait theories [11].

These first comments reflect theutility of professional skills and how work helps learners to learn them: DP1: “I am only a few weeks into my first course in my degree so the GPA is not reflective of my current progress. However, I do believe that having some experience in the work force has given me perspective on what I'm learning as well as having professionalism in emails and speaking with my professor.
