starting. Most clinicalengineering departments in hospitals limit the number of students taking an internship there toonly one at a time, mostly because of the size of the department, which prompts us to secure aplace in the student’s hospital choice as early as possible. Other types of industries may not havethis limitation, although it may be desired by the faculty to limit to only one the number ofstudents in this cooperative process at a given time. In this way, they will be sure that studentstruly interact with professionals from the company instead of with peers from school andconsequently obtain the maximum benefits from this experience. Another reason for theadvanced contact between faculty and the responsible industry contact is to have

asserts the need for signs that communicate technical jargon [2]. The authors makea case that interpreters who have a knowledge of content, provide better instructioncompared to those who are not familiar with a subject. Additionally, the selection ofsigns in communicating technical jargon is important in effectively translating the idea.Finally, a study examining direct instruction (i.e. where the educator is signing) vs.mediated instruction (i.e. where an interpreter is present) showed no difference ineffectively conveying the information to the Deaf student [3]. However, one disturbingfact from this study is that Deaf students leave a course with less knowledge compared totheir hearing peers. Programs have been created to encourage Deaf

In addition, the students should have had an IPR during thisperiod so the instructor could assess the data collection protocol. In the future, the studentsshould be asked to conduct a mass balance on COD and/or nitrogen as part of this assignment.Students were asked to assess the overall project, their own performance, and the performance oftheir peers by completing a survey (Table 2).

Then, each group teaches the rest of the class the details of the core competency theyworked on. This allows peer-to-peer learning. In this process, each group gave a 25-minutemini-lecture to the class and demonstrated their prototype. The design challenges andprogramming details were covered in great depth.

coding is aninstructional activity where the instructor thinks aloud as they write code in real-time in frontof the students [9], [10]. Live coding facilitates students' understanding of coding and allowsthem to learn debugging a good programming practice from the instructor [11]. Priorliterature has found that most students in introductory programming courses view live codingpositively and often prefer it over static instructional activities [12], [13]. However,depending on how it is conducted, live coding can become a passive activity for students [9].Previous research findings report that during passive live coding, students may disengage,feel disoriented, or struggle to keep up with the instructor [14], [15].To overcome the passive attention

In the first year, instruments were identified by searching peer-reviewed journalarticles, using branching techniques from reference sections of papers and reports, andidentifying innovative projects that may have developed and employed evaluation instruments.While comprehensive, this three-pronged strategy proved to be somewhat challenging forlocating instruments.
