On the technical dimension, the project report requiresthe students to explain how they tested the subsystems, how they performed integration testing,and to evaluate how their prototype met (or failed to meet) specifications. The AGV reportevaluation rubric is shown in Appendix A. Regarding the human dimension, each student isrequired to submit a peer-assessment and self-evaluation in which they write at least one bulletedstatement on each team member’s strengths and areas needing improvement, as shown inAppendix B.

As a result of her efforts, in five years DOE CSGF doubled the number and overall quality of applicants, including a doubling and in some cases quadrupling the number of underrepresented minority applications. Under her directorship, the National Science Foundation STEM Talent Expansion Program at Miami Dade College witnessed development and implementation of novel programming for cross-engagement of women and under-represented minorities in STEM. She initiated a rapid start, and then engaged and retained students through online and learning communities, specialized courses, virtual and traditional seminars, peer and faculty mentoring, field trips, and other

However, instructor facilitation may result in an instructor-centered discussion whichlimit students’ participation and voice [18], and student-facilitated discussions provide analternative approach. Peer facilitation can foster a sense of student ownership and help studentsfeel more at ease in expressing their opinions [19], and allow practical hands-on experience ofbeing a discussion facilitator [18]. Compared to instructor-facilitated discussions, research onstudent-facilitated discussions is still limited focusing more on the student facilitation techniques[11], [20]. This study aims to explore how overall design and management of student-facilitateddiscussions influence peer interaction and critical thinking in engineering

traditionalhomework in engineering education occurred [1-4], but the overwhelming majority ofengineering faculty members believe that homework is an indispensable component in thecourses they teach. As an analogy, students majoring in English need to write many essays forpractice, and they cannot master the skill of writing just by learning various writing skills andreading novels. In the same way, engineering students cannot grasp the necessary knowledge andskills without the struggling process in solving homework problems [5].Almost all the publishers of the textbooks provide the solution manuals to the instructors, andunfortunately, these materials are leaked to students through the internet. Some websites eveninvite students to provide quiz and exam

] .MULTIPLE REPRESENTATIONS OF TURING MACHINESAlan Turing provided a mathematical definition of computation in 1936 [41]. In the same year,Emil Post independently developed algorithm machines that have come to be known as Postmachines [29]. Turing machines and Post machines are proven to be equivalent and their theorydeveloped in 1930s and 1940s has provided the foundation of the theory of computation. Turingmachines are the most popular models for recursively enumerable sets mentioned above.Following Cohen [6], we define Turing machines as follows. A Turing machine is composed of six components: 1. An alphabet, , which is a finite non-empty set of symbols from which input isbuilt. 2. A READ/WRITE TAPE, divided into a sequence

The traditional teacher-centered pedagogy isassociated with top down, hierarchal pedagogy that reinforces passive learning, rolememorization, and hinders the development of higher level cognitive skills ( (Duckworth, 2009;Cristillo, 2010). On the other hand, student-centered pedagogical strategies which promotekeeping students actively thinking, writing, comparing, and applying new knowledge result indeep learning and better student performance (Weimer, 2002; Wohlfarth, et al., 2008).
