Meanwhile, the technology sector is growing, led largely by software companies likeApple, Microsoft, Alphabet (parent of Google), and Facebook. Accordingly, many of the leadingsoftware companies emerged from a “tech startup” culture and
homework quizzes asan alternative to grading homework. Even if the student-learning results are not as dramatic as inthis study, in-class homework quizzes do greatly reduce the issue of knowing whose work isactually being assessed and used as part of a course grade as it is much more difficult forstudents to submit the work of others as their own on such a quiz.References[1] “Flipped Classroom?” https://facultyinnovate.utexas.edu/flipped-classroom Last queried:December 2019.[2] M.H.

The flexibility and versatility of the mini-mester format enable constructive experimentation regarding the curriculum and structure of acourse. This paper
relevant to the subject.Reflection on Critical Thinking for Graduate Students and the Adaptability of ThisImplementation in Other SettingsCritical thinking is a skill highly valued in both undergraduate and graduate education. Thenational studies cited at the beginning of this paper indicate that imparting these skills is notconsistent nationwide, and furthermore that critical thinking skills are assumed to developorganically in graduate education. A search of ASEE conference papers since 1997 showed 98contributions with “critical thinking” as a theme, surely an indication of the importance of thesubject. Fewer than 10 of these dealt with graduate education, however. As far as the

TKI paper-based questionnaires were distributed to 53 juniors over a four-year period for the threegraduating classes of 2016, 2017, and 2019. In addition, another 53 questionnaires weredistributed to the identical students while they were seniors. The TKI scores were tallied anddocumented in order to determine each student’s conflict management style during their juniorand senior years and then used to evaluate the changes in styles, as a collective student group.To accomplish this effort, five independent samples one-tailed t-tests were performed for eachTKI conflict style.
