All student responses regardless of class werepooled in this analysis (n=49).Figure 5: This question asked how many times in the prior two academic semesters had the student engaged in each of twenty behav-iors. Allowable discrete responses were zero, one, two, or three or more times. The segments of the bar represents the percentage ofrespondents selecting a given answer. The left half of each composite bar represents the responses from the freshmen (n=17), while theright half represents the upperclass students (n=31).References [1] John S. Baird.

Tohelp eliminate the negative effects of the microgravity environment, a spinning structure wouldsimulate a gravitational pull. As a first major step in this direction, a spinning space stationwould allow a means by which to study the long term effects of this kind of environment whilein relatively close proximity to the Earth. It would be the first truly long-duration space habitatever constructed. Contemplating a 20-30 year timespan, beginning in 2015, an

Thus engineering education’s framing of issues as problemsmay serve to create an engineering education system that gives rise to, or exacerbates, thoseperceived problems. For example if it is widely believed there is a significant retention problemin engineering a possible solution would be to create a new first year course to better prepare1 In the late 1920’s a group of investigators from Harvard University were able to observe people at work in theWestinghouse Electrical Company’s works in Chicago.

topic was question D4, in which the students’ appeared to understand theimportance of effective communication on the job site. There was also improvement in allobjective questions, with three questions scoring a 100% in the late semester showing ofthe video. This is likely due to the fact that these topics are covered extensively throughoutthe semester. The question that scored the lowest was question D9, which was thedefinition of the USCS acronym. The lower than expected result was due to strict gradingadopted by the professor. All four words had to be identified, spelled correctly, and in thecorrect tense. If a student defined the first “S” as Soils, then the answer was incorrect as thefirst “S” is not plural (i.e. Soil). After the
