A survey instrument, the Measure of Intellectual Development(MID) which is a survey instrument and an essay-writing test derived from Perry’s work, wasused to determine impacts from the learning community. The MID was given to learningcommunity participants and also to peers who were scored on a 1 to 5 point scale.

Using socialization theory, this study explored dailyinteractions of students with faculty and peers, overall perceptions of fit, knowledge about thegraduate school process, and opportunities for mentoring provided in the institution as well asthrough outside engagement during industry internships.

A web-based system, GEO (General EngineeringOnline), was developed using PHP1 (a programming language used to dynamically generate webpages) and MySQL2 (a relational database management system). The system allows pre-registration for required out-of-class activities (department tours, advisor appointments, and teamproject work sessions). It also provides a portal for communication between students, instructorsand advisors (peer evaluations, surveys, email confirmations of appointments, and student/teammanagement).

Many universities and colleges offer programs that provide these kinds of opportunitiesby hosting STEM living learning communities that offer resources that would not be available inother living environments either on, or off campus.Living learning communities provide an opportunity for students to build strong relationshipsinside and outside of the classroom and promotes higher academic performance which results ingreater student success.11 By taking some of the same courses together

During the 1980s graph icsinstruction was reduced to make room for computer literacy: introductory programming andexposure to the early CAD software. In 1990, programming was dropped; and in 1991, the firstsolid modeling software, Silver Screen, was adopted and used until 1998, when IronCAD wasintroduced.

High ratings had to also be explained. The results of these peer ratingswere summarized by the course facilitators and then returned to students during brief oneon one performance review sessions.Because of the limited report writing experience of the students the course facilitatorsfound it necessary to provide guidelines for the final project reports. All final reportswere to clearly describe the project goal, methodology, results, conclusions, andreferences. It was also necessary to return the reports for one rewrite because of the lackof raw data and insufficient
