These results imply that we should give this concept inventory anotheriteration to determine whether some questions need to be made difficult.The discrimination index of most questions (16 of 19) was found to be at least low-acceptable(greater than 0.25). Three questions did not discriminate well between high and low scorers.While we feel these questions are important, we will continue to monitor the results and to considerpossible ways to address the same concepts in a different manner.Our plan for the next iteration is to revise the two questions we had on the concept inventory thathad

Although the shifts inthe format and structure may not fully reflect the usual state of the original lab sessions andthe corresponding observations, the study was carried out mostly as planned.)Utilizing Online Homework SystemsOne of the key advantages of online homework systems is that students can receiveimmediate feedback

Many states have reacted by including engineering within theirstate K-12 science standards. Prior to 2011, only 11 states had explicit engineering standards (Carr,Bennett, and Strobel, 2012). This number increased to 12 in 2015 with an additional 24 statesimplicitly referencing engineering (Moore et al., 2015). As of 2018, 39 states have updated theirscience standards to include engineering with an additional four states planning to do so by 2021(Lopez & Goodridge, 2018); 20 of these states have adopted the Next Generation ScienceStandards (or adopted them under a different, state-specific name with

The problemthat the participants were given was related to removing trash from a polluted river including thefollowing tasks: 1) an annotated drawing and description of the design of a solution, 2) a plan fortesting, 3) a list of materials needed, and 4) methodology for construction.

The students are clearly connecting the content to a social learning environment.Many teachers spend a significant amount of class time going over the correct responses to anexam, or worry that they cannot take the time to do this without losing content coverage. Ratherthan spend the same amount of time going over the exam, a team test allows students to discover,justify and own the answers. By having students spend time working through the exam with eachother, the students become teachers, participating in reciprocal learning.For planning teacher-to-classroom

Overall, both models provide adequate means for standardsaccess but both individually are not financially sustainable.The primary way for an academic library to best provide cost effective access to standards for itsstudents is a hybrid between these two purchasing models [7]. This can be achieved only whenan academic library comes up with a standards collection development plan based on the needsof its researchers. This can be done by figuring out what exactly the needs are of the engineeringschool and what they specialize or focus their research and development in [9].

During the course of ME 461/462, typically 3-5 students form adesign group to conduct a specific design project under mentoring of one or two facultymembers. Therein, the ME 461 focuses on project plan, budgeting, conceptual and final designs;the follow-up ME 462 focuses on revised design and budgeting, prototype fabrication of the finaldesign that is accomplished in ME 461.
