The teams thenproceeded with rating student work, meeting by phone and email regularly to address inter-raterreliability conflicts and to complete the rating by preparing guidance for the department and thefaculty member(s) associated with the work submitted. Rating sessions generally proceeded overseveral weeks, with both raters choosing to work on their assigned rating when convenient totheir schedules.The overall distance assessment effort, including rater training, was facilitated by departmentadministration and the staff of the RHIT’s institutional research and program assessment office.FindingsProgram educational objectives

Due tothese types of bias, there are myths abound when it comes to the arguments for and againstrenewable energies, as well as global warming.Take for instance Time’s Magazine, which published an article March 2008 entitled “The CleanEnergy Scam”. This article focuses on the increasing investment and production of bio-fuels.They proclaim that although bio-fuels are touted as a cleaner alternative to regular gasoline, theymay in fact have a more negative impact on the environment and economy. Their logic is asfollows: the government(s) provide subsidies to farmers willing to produce crops for bio-fuelproduction. Farmers not only provide more of their crop for fuel

Typically, as shown in Figure 7, roles wereassigned (videographer, photographer) before each excursion, so that other students could focusmore on what they heard and saw. This division of labor worked well, and kept the focus ondocumentation of the trip through visual means.

The results of thissurvey suggest that knowing more about the structure did in fact make it more appealing in anumber of ways.In the future, the researchers are interested in using various aspects of the sculpture in a numberof different courses to determine if the sculpture, as a learning tool, can not only improve thedegree to which people think about technical, social, and environmental issues, but the degree towhich they can actually learn more about these issues.
