For these reasons, and because the LSI has not really been used inthis area, we have decided to adopt the LSI as the learning style assessment tool.2.5 Criticism of cognition and learning stylesWang and others looked into the correlation between Biggs’ constructive alignment and how itaffected students’ learning approaches. This research went off the basis that “university students’learning approaches... are highly correlated with students’ achievement of learningoutcomes” (Wang, 2013).

Digital techniques were introduced in 1993 to accommodate the hugeboom in subscribers of portable telephone service in the mid 90’s. Cellular communicationssystems evolved from providing voice in the mid 90’s (2nd generation or 2G) to all-IP dataservices that are available since 2011 (4G). Advanced mobile broadband and real-time controlwill be enabled by future 5G systems. Wireless systems that provide personal andmachine-to-machine communications currently constitute a major research area of vitalimportance.Telecommunication

Abductive analysis follows an iterative cycle of hypothesis generation that couldexplain unexpected findings and then exploration of potential hypotheses within the data, whichwill often result in new unexpected findings and refinement of hypotheses. Abductive analysis is“complete” once a new theory is generated that can explain the unexpected finding(s) and issupported by the data.Thus, in this paper, we attempt to address the following research question through abductiveanalysis: What theoretical formulation can help explain why female engineering students were more likely to experience innovation in more comprehensive ways than male

While this result falls just short of statistical significance for athreshold of α = 0.05 (Barnard’s test p = 0.083), it suggests a pedagogical deficiency in someaspect(s) of the Spring 2016 course (see Discussion).Analysis of Student Course Evaluations and CommentsAt the end of each term, students completed anonymous course evaluations answering multiplequestions relating to the course and to the instructor.

We utilized twoexisting surveys: the Reisman Diagnostic Creativity Assessment (RDCA) [10] and theInnovative Behavior Scales (IBS) [11]. We chose two instruments, as while the RDCA coveredmost of the course objectives, an inspection of Reisman et al. [10] indicated that the surveyconstructs had questionable reliability in prior use. Therefore, our team refined this instrumentand its constructs prior to data collection.

Biomolecular Engineering. Common across all teams is a minimumtimeframe of three to five years. Teams typically become integral parts of faculty researchprograms, continually evolving with the team advisor’s research.3. The program is curricular and all participating students are graded (A-F; not P/F, S/U). VIPis not an extra- or co-curricular activity. It is a sequence of courses whose credits count towardsstudents' degree requirements, and letter grading holds students accountable for their work. Inmany ways, feedback and grading in VIP is like an evaluation in the workplace. Work isevaluated, guidance is given, and students have the opportunity to improve. The curricularstructure and the philosophy that all students can benefit from the experience
