College. Her research interest revolves around software estimation, software design and curriculum design of software engineering course(s).Dr. Muhsin Menekse, Purdue University, West Lafayette (College of Engineering) Muhsin Menekse is an assistant professor at Purdue University with a joint appointment in the School of Engineering Education and the Department of Curriculum & Instruction. Dr. Menekse’s primary research investigates how learning activities affect students’ conceptual understanding of engineering and science concepts. His second research focus is on verbal interactions that can enhance productive discussions in collaborative learning settings. And his third research focus is on metacognition and its

of their thermaldesign margins explaining how they are using a model and sensitivity analysis before concludingthat many different situations had been considered. Therefore, while the project expertunderstood the complexity of the design and discussed the actual quantified margins ofuncertainty, we see by move 4’s question that this explanation was insufficient for the reviewer.At this point, we see the manager interject in move 4 in an attempt to explain in a differentmanner by indicating that some parts can be changed out to help with the thermal balancing,suggesting the use of a simulator, and insisting that the project expert has done everything theycan at this point. At a CDR there can still be uncertainties about the overall project

This outcome could be madepossible by expanding the scope of the research to other freshman engineering courses with moremale and female lecturers. Lastly, partnering with counterparts at other universities can provideadditional data to support and augment findings presented here.References[1] S. E. Carrell, M. E. Page and J. E.

) highlightsthe following data about sources of academic research funding: The federal government provided 59% ($32.6 billion) of the $54.9 billion of academic spending on S&E R&D in FY 2009. Industry's % of funding for academic R&D declined steeply after the 1990s, from above 7% in 1999 down to about 5% by 2004, but has seen a 5-year increase to about 6% in 2009.While this indicates that industry funded research is relatively low (6% overall in 2009), someUS universities within engineering, especially at large R1 schools, receive a considerably higherpercentage of their research funding from industry than the overall 6% reported by the NSBreport.

communication and management acumen (e.g., technicalwriting, technical presentations, and project management). Such an approach is essential topreparing future engineers for the workplace [1]. The challenge becomes providing studentswith effective exposure to both kinds of skills within engineering programs.Traditionally, the development of such skills has been a matter of content-specific courseworkintegrated into a school’s engineering program(s). (A classic example is the technical writingcourse often offer by English or communication departments and required of engineeringundergraduates.) As institutional resources shrink and student demand increases, the need tofind alternative methods for offering training in these “soft-skill” areas grows

person with a strong technical background can be more convincing when different opinions on a task are raised. A complex capstone project normally requires different technical skill sets, and a single faculty member may not be able to efficiently advise students on all these aspects. Therefore, the faculty advisor needs to help students build a supportive environment by identifying and securing technical supports and advising mentor(s). At the same time, the faculty advisor needs to follow up with the team on advice they received and, when necessary, to step in and make a decision on behalf of the team. For example, when a mentor gives unrealistic guidance, the faculty advisor needs to communicate directly with the mentor

The assuring outcomes show mostparticipants (over 80%) believe managers and workers can find a common ground to reconcile andaddress the differences in their perception (see Figure 2).Exploring workers’ and managers’ responses to the question provide insightful information thatcan shed light on the subject matter. They argued we (i.e., managers and workers) already havecommon ground. In response to the interview question an interviewee mentioned that “Yes, Ibelieve that we already have an overall common ground, no one wants to get hurt or see someoneelse.” A construction worker added that “I believe the manager[s] feel the same way about
