course, and the second grant ($2000) wasobtained in 2012 to create 42 videos for a hybrid introductory computer programming course. Afew faculty members involved in these projects attended a week-long summer institute from theuniversity’s teaching and learning center (called “eLearning”) which discussed best practices invideo design. As a result, the videos created for the two grants were short and modular, withmost videos being less than 10 minutes in length and covering a single topic or example; shortvideos are generally preferred by students [9], [10], [11]. The videos were initially uploaded to alocal university server and links were made available to other mechanical engineering instructorswho had the option of sharing the links with

The introduction of an on-demand validation suite (See Table 1) significantly improvedproject quality (no projects have been submitted with violations since its introduction). It allowsthe codification of the quality checks and when the validation engine processes the rules,violating elements are identified within the model.

@mail.usf.edu Abstract This paper accompanies the poster presented at the IEEE ASEE 2019 conference’s NSF grantees special poster session. Our goal is to provide the reader with an overview of the deliverable and findings that resulted from three collaborative National Science Foundation (NSF) awards from the Improving Undergraduate STEM Education (IUSE) program; #1504634, #1502564, and #1503834. The so-called EvoParsons project (http://cereal.usf.edu/EvoParsons) resulted in a proof of concept educational software aimed at novice programmers. It applies coevolutionary computations theories and advances to both design Parsons puzzles for students, and enable a dimension based analysis

Research Purpose and QuestionsPast efforts to foster inclusion have primarily focused on the numbers and been limited in theways we teach, train and expose people to learning inclusiveness and empathy. Moreover, suchefforts are also linked to the misconception that increasing demographic representationnecessitates an inclusive environment. Cultures must change to achieve inclusion. The role of thefaculty in shaping culture, specifically in engineering, is critical and yet, understudied.

And I said, "What I'm most awareof everyday is that I'm Black, I'm a woman, and I'm short."How does your gender impact your experience in your doctoral program?It impacts it a lot. As an example: I was in a group project last semester, and Imade some suggestions. Everybody ignored my comment. Some guy said thesame thing 10 minutes later, and they're were like, "That's a great idea."

interaction of assessment withlearning and teaching. As an integral part, assessment provides an opportunity for teachers and students alike toidentify areas of understanding and misunderstanding. With this knowledge, students andteachers can build on the understanding and seek to transform misunderstanding into significantlearning (N.R.C., 1993). Assessment as ‘learning’ is not a third-party research project orsomeone's questionnaire; it must be viewed as a community effort or nothing, driven by afaculty's own commitment to reflect, judge, and improve (Narayanan, 2007 & 2009). The author has tried to follow such a philosophy while gathering data for this project. Inthis presentation the author provides some guidelines for

The purpose of mI-PIV is to provide low cost educationalaccess to state-of-the-art fluid flow measurement and flow visualization tools to increasestudent’s interest, retention, and technical capacity in the broad yet critical field of fluiddynamics. The motivation for mI-PIV is based on the knowledge that a robust understanding offluid mechanics—the fundamental science of fluid motion—is foundational within fields of vitalimportance to our nation’s infrastructure, safety and defense, including aeronautical, biological,civil

However, little of this research has focused on what the students themselveswould offer as advice to incoming first year students.
