instructor. When students know that the instructordemonstrates genuine interest in their learning on an ongoing basis, and they see that s/heis willing to spend the extra time to ensure that they fully understand the concepts taughtin class, they will be more motivated to learn, and are more likely to rate the instructorhighly in the course evaluations.For instructors interested in adopting this technique in their courses, the first step is todevelop a detailed listing of the course topics in the order they will be covered in thecourse. Use an easy-to--read textbook or provide a set of concise course notes so that thestudents can readily map the various course topics in the module surveys to appropriatesections in the textbook or course notes.

While she possesses many of the necessary traits, she may lose your vote inthe scene where she publicly and inappropriately confronts recalcitrant student Betty Warren(Kirsten Dunst) in class. However, she never used that technique with any other student and itwas Betty Warren, who chases Ms. Watson’s departing taxi the longest and touches her handfrom her bicycle. Later Betty writes, “She came to Wellesley to make a difference, but to change for others is to lie to yourself.

The initial groupalso provided no introductions of group members nor motivation(s) for the experimental work.Prior to the beginning of second presentation, the instructors gave immediate feedback onpresentation strategy and reminded the students about the required equal participation from allgroup members.

In fact, this has been the trendnationwide as many university power programs have declined in recent years.[4] At ColoradoSchool of Mines we are working to reverse the trend of diminishing interest among U.S. studentsin the electric power industry.Deregulation during the 1990’s caused tumultuous change for the energy sector. During theseturbulent times the utility sector also largely neglected its need to cultivate technical expertise.Reorganization of the industry caused many of the technically-oriented jobs to disappear. At thesame time, fewer students were studying power engineering, because they found the “glamorousand exotic (and quite often better paying)” high-tech areas of electrical engineering to be

pick up and grade randomly selected homework problems andcheck the rest for completion. Problems of copying and inappropriate collaboration still exist, butnonetheless this approach’s monitoring and feedback generally are helpful. A difficulty is thatfeedback is limited to only the selected problem(s) and to the degree that the professor expendstime writing comments on the homework.Students still seek help with homework during professors’ office hours, but that practice hastended to evolve to the posting of solutions. Factors affecting both professors and students havecontributed to this trend. Professors spend more time conducting research and raising funds, andstudents’ jobs can make it difficult to use office hours. Postings can occur

. Hospital facilities areunder almost constant renovation as medical treatment technologies, patient age demographicsand patient demand for comfort amenities evolve. Infectious control represents one of the morechallenging aspects of selective demolition and remodeling to hospital constructors. Hospitals (aswell as other structures) pre-dating the 1970’s may be home to hazardous materials such asasbestos, PCB’s and lead paints. Demolition contractors are often the first to encounter thesehazards which represent a challenge whether they are to be encapsulated or abated and landfilled.It is hypothesized that a course focusing on selective demolition and remodeling could serve bothspecializations equally well.In addition to a heavy equipment course, a
