the inability to make edits toprevious posts. Piazza provides the option for wiki-style Q&A posts initiated by either studentsor faculty. When a student has a course-related question, one of the instructors or other studentscan respond. Students can collaborate to co-edit responses or make changes in their own posts toclarify or add details. Piazza includes the use of many social media strategies such as includingkeyword hash tags, adding "likes" to favorite posts, tagging of individual posts that areparticularly useful and archiving messages for later review. The freeform nature of discussionwithin this platform worked well for the diverse needs of a large enrollment class and moreclosely simulated a natural dialog that might take place

Other field trips to major construction sites offcampus are also organized in collaboration with local construction firms or agencies. Theobjective of these trips is to reinforce material discussed in class through exposure to practicalapplications. They provide familiarization with equipment, operation, production managementand problem solving in real life conditions. Instructors also use the opportunity to emphasizeimportant concepts and applications during the visits. Examples of past guest lecture topics andsite visits include: Project execution and construction of the “ Q” bridge

two formats, the approximately 3-4 hours of contact time would be lost to on-line students.To mitigate this deficit, the following steps were implemented: 1. All homework assignments had been solved and discussed in video segments. 2. Strong reliance on Piazza forum, where every question by students would be answered by the instructor (as opposed to the flipped version where the forum was meant for student use and only monitored by the instructor). This way, a record of `Q & A’ would be available to all. 3. A `muddiest segment’ poll was used to identify the difficult lecture segments, for which additional material or review segments were created, during the term 4. Video conferencing was used to accommodate one

. Some seminars are delivered by individuals, and some are delivered by aportion, or all, of the project team. Some seminars are 30 minutes long, and some are 3 hours induration. Some constitute a series over multiple days. Significant time for discussion and Q&A isprovided at the end of each seminar. A survey instrument is used to assess the impact of theseminar. Overall, the seminars have been very well received, as evinced by survey data presentedin a later section of this paper. The following section provides examples of the kind of materialthat is presented in these seminars.Ingenuity in NatureAccording to Mechanical Engineering Professor Robert L.

Theinstructors held Q&A sessions about badges throughout the semester as needed by students.Assignments completed as part of a badge were evaluated by two or more faculty membersand/or teaching assistants involved in a particular learning experience, using a detailed rubricthat was also available to learners. These evaluators would provide detailed feedback on eachassignment and may require from students to revise and resubmit without penalty as many timesas needed until the competency was attained.

and we talked about the importance of cooperation in engineering.” (Team Leader)Lessons Learned: • In HA training, stress the importance of small, interactive groups with manipulatives or hands-on elements, as opposed to longer lecture-style slide presentations. • In HA training, instruct teams to have seed questions prepared in advance so that the Q&A time has good participation. As an alternative, have the school liaison require the high school students do this in advance.5. Key Factor: Team RecruitmentWhile the attendance at the ambassador training event was good (>150 students), team leaders’ability to get the minimum 3-4 team members for an actual HA event was challenging for anumber of teams.

engineersresponded with the following. “By my observation, the biggest benefit of the capstone class is that it forces the students to draw upon the body of knowledge that they have developed to-date and to apply that knowledge in a fashion that is not already pre-defined for them.”Practicing engineers also provided feedback and suggestions for how the course could beimproved to better prepare students for their careers. “In lieu of having a few folks serve as general advisors to the class, I would suggest soliciting the help from additional practicing engineers. You could then have each of those individuals assigned to a specific team. They could arrange for a weekly Q&A session. I anticipate that each group
