professional background includes twenty-five years of progressively responsible positions in software and systems development, information technology management, and technical leadership. I am a proven technical leader with verifiable results. I have built and led several distributed and off shore technical organizations. My academic experience includes over ten years teaching both in-class and on-line univer- sity level computer science courses, curriculum development and course mentorship. I am currently the C# faculty course mentor. As an educator, a priority for me is to provide a supportive learning environment that promotes student persistence and success. I am safe zoned trained, and I have deep mentoring experience

It is not common to see the objective and the deliverables are altered throughout the semester. Students are not capable to negotiate with the project sponsor or stakeholder. c) The Size of the project team, a large project teams (5-8 students) tend to have underperforming team members that result in an overall negative team culture [19,20,21].

Cooperative and Experiential Education
. IntroductionThis evidence-based paper assesses strategies for Research Experience for Undergraduates(REU) social program success. REU programs typically bring together students from across thecountry – or even around the world – to a university campus for the summer. While at thisuniversity, the students learn how to conduct real research in their discipline by actually doing it,under the supervision of a faculty mentor. Giving students exposure to conducting bona fideresearch allows them to determine whether they may be interested in pursuing a research career(and, to support this, continuing on to graduate-level education).Many students who participate in REU programs remember these programs long after theprogram is complete. The initial experience

This kind of high-visibility industry engagement has been a critical component of success in the RSC program. Others attempting to implement full pipelines are highly encouraged to find or create a similar experience for students throughout the technology and engineering career cycle to engage with and understand the needs and vision of industry leaders and professionals.D.

After our libraryimplemented a change in access to content through Elsevier, a publisher that provides access tomany engineering scholarly journals, we used this natural experiment to explore thiscommunity’s information seeking behaviors.

a PhD in mathematics, I participated in one of the first Preparing the Professoriate programs in the nation. The goal of the program was to prepare graduate students more deliberately to “hit the ground running” as new faculty members. For me, it worked. I started a tenure-track position at an undergraduate-only institution with a solid awareness of the cultural values, norms, and expectations for mathematics faculty members at that time. Additional formal mentoring in mathematics education allowed me to quickly learn and model the norms and values of education faculty members as well. I was promoted to associate professor and tenured with ease, racking up awards and recognitions along the way. My experience with explicit, formal

Personally, there is an internal satisfaction in sharing knowledge and fosteringgrowth in the next generation of professionals for industry. Without an intrinsic sense ofaccomplishment, there may be little incentive for a professional to donate their time. Theseinternal rewards must be supported by faculty through recognition and presentation of “letters ofappreciation” from the College.Faculty benefit through maintenance and upgrade of personal skills in the face of changingtechnology, having a pathway to keep course material current, developing a broader personalnetwork, and intrinsic rewards of providing a better student experience.4.

instructions compared to the 2019 in-person bootcamp was thatthe students who were not willing to reach out to the faculty or the student assistant for help,would get stuck for a while which also resulted in less engagement. In an in-person bootcamp,supervision and identifying the students that needed additional help was significantly easier.Therefore, the number of students who could complete this part of the project was lower than lastyear. A solution to this issue could be creating groups of two students similar to the in-personbootcamp, asking students to work with each other, and joining their Zoom breakout roomsevery 15-20 minutes to see their progress.

The “academics” code wasused to label any struggles related to coursework, such as low grades, dropping courses, or poorstudy habits.

There have even been formalproposals for curricular goals and assessment measures for design-based curricula. Thisargument is driven by a widespread notion that the intellectual content of design is consistentlyunderestimated [1].This paper reviews research on design thinking as it relates to how designers think, learn andmake decisions, which is an important reason why design is not easy to teach.
