MyMathLab also includes the MathXL engine which canpresent students with a problem similar to those in the exercise sets at the end of each section inthe textbook. Most problems are algorithmic, meaning that each time the question is presented itis slightly different, using different numbers for example. The MathXL engine allows for Page 24.43.5traditional multiple choice type answers, but it is also able to parse mathematical expressions,allowing problems to ask students to

Therefore,before peer pressure and popular culture lures them away from self-efficacy in math and science,outreach to females outside of the traditional classroom is crucial. For this research project,thirteen middle school students were invited to attend a summer camp hosted in theenvironmental engineering laboratory at North Carolina Agricultural & Technical StateUniversity. Three environmental and public health “cases” or stories were developed to increasethe student interest in science and environmental engineering. The girls were grouped into teamsand each group was assigned one of the three cases in which a community member or petbecame sick due to an unknown

The course objectives arecomposed of the understanding of emerging project delivery approaches, sustainability andtechnology driven project environment and the near future of construction project environment atthe strategic level. Students in the program have diverse educational backgrounds, thereforeadvanced topics are taught without excluding their fundamentals. The paper presents a termproject example showing how this is accomplished. Each student is given a different topic. Thegiven topic includes the analysis of conventional project delivery methods to see if
