The non-profit team providedgrant management and oversight for the colleges’ funded STEM programs, requiring quarterlyreporting of their financial expenditures and budget balances, progress against their proposedtimelines, and narratives describing program status, outcomes, and challenges. The SFAz PIresponded to these reports with emails, phone calls and site visits when appropriate, providingongoing support and guidance to the college PIs to ensure their program’s success.STEM Metrics Development ApproachFrom its onset, the SFAz+8 program was designed to generate evidence to validate achievementof the program goals. Objectivity was ensured through the use of an external evaluator. Eachprogram goal had associated measurable outcome(s) and

The use of a "roaming" lecturer helped me learn the software.4. This topic is very important to my career.5. I preferred the use of peer teachers to learn Microsoft Project.5. Results and AnalysisData collected from the pre and post questionnaires show that there was a large increasein preference of peer teaching over more traditional learning. In general all questionsdemonstrated an improvement after the intervention of the peer teaching methodology.Table 3 and Figure 1 summarize the results of the teaching group pre and postquestionnaire

Final project scores for the RubeGoldberg machines were assigned based on performance, complexity, and professionalappearance. The performance score was based on how well the task was carried out and includedpoints for the precision of the device’s timing and for successfully completing the final step(unlocking the door). Project complexity was assessed by counting the number of different stepsin the process from device activation to the door being unlocked. Finally, projects were expectedto be professional in appearance with the team’s name, logo, and theme

boysexclusively makes no sense, and a part of the diversification of an over- all population should bedifferent populations working together. Engineering outreach programs have been around for quite some time, with a casual survey indicating that the late 1990’s saw an uptick in the number of programs, perhaps due toincreased NSF funding. In the same time period, efforts to recruit more women to engineeringwere languishing. The nationwide percentage of women has hovered in the vicinity of 18% forover 20 years [1]. Coincident with these phenomena, research emerged providing good insightinto characteristics of educational programming that appeal to girls.

The proposed program consists of anintegrated approach to increase the number and graduation rate of undergraduate students whoenroll in the College of Engineering. As financial constraints are a major disincentive forstudents to enroll and persist in higher education, this project combines scholarships with otherforms of academic and professional support to ensure student persistence and completion of aB.S.

should reinforce underlying ECEconcepts while providing examples of ECE and BME application. Our 305’s portable modulesfor nScope, strike this balance. Since nScope and Digilent Analog Discovery share manysimilarities, we anticipate the earliest partial implantation of these modules in EEL3111C to takeplace in Spring 2018. The researchers will have then have the opportunity to study the wayinstructors employ new materials, the difficulties they face, and what can be done to overcomethose barriers. Perhaps the most challenging HPL principle to implement in a web-based platform is“assessment-centered,” as it entails optimizing the amount and type of formative feedbackprovided to the students.

exam questions. To determine the similarity of the SS1 and SS2’s exams in terms of difficulty, we firstclassified the questions from the four exams (two midterms and two finals) into five topicalgroups. These kinds of problems were tested on each exam in each iteration of the class. We thenrandomly sampled the questions in each group, selecting 23 questions in total. We asked severalfaculty members from the Engineering Department to use their expert opinions on the difficultyof each question without identifying which class or exam the questions originated. We wouldthen ask the experts to discuss the questions to evaluate the difficulty of each question and cometo a consensus, assigning each question a score of 1-5.1 – Not at all
