Instructors observedthat the level of interaction and enthusiasm increased greatly among students. While it is difficultto provide accurate result values that reflect the amount of increase in student performance in theclassroom, the high level of attendance, which was observed, was certainly a good indicator

reasons: The RF signal power attenuation is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the transmitter and the receiver. The UHF RF signal can be reflected off nearby metal surfaces and concrete walls, which are common in a hospital environment, and cancel the incident signal if it is in anti-phase with incident signal. The reader’s antenna radiation patterns may also vary in different directions depending on the location and geometry of the room, which consequently influence the reader’s performance. Therefore, it is of great importance to adapt the reader’s antenna location to properly scan its environment and provide maximum tag detection capability. Most important is that the UHF RF signals are easily absorbed

In general, campers noted that they believed their own actions are important forenvironmental change. They also generally noted that they thought about where their foodcomes from, showing that the younger generation can be environmentally conscious.Due to the nature of the camp, environmentally and academically minded parents are more likelyto pay for their children to attend this type of camp.

College during the fall of 2014 in the Incubator experience. Although the pilot study did notfind an advantage of teaching integrated courses, it was an important step towards the re-envisioning of the existing curriculum. The Purdue Polytechnic Incubator operated as a facultynetwork that explored best practices on education by deconstructing the models of traditionaldisciplines. This allowed for re-visioning of the traditional educational model by including co-teaching and group reflections as a core component of the experience. The integration ofhumanities and technology provided with a rich ground for student development. Rather thanfocusing only in a mechanistic approach to technology, students were able to draw parallels withtheir cultural

Further, and perhaps mostencouraging, is that results suggest even a one-time lab experience with the Beagleboard isenough to overcome any learning curve it might have and thus accelerate lab completion.Finally, comments and feedback solicited from students and teaching assistants reflect positively Page

their institution is (andwhat it is not).Alignment of objectives is an important element of effective education practice. In any course,the course content, assessments, and pedagogical practices should be aligned to improve learningand to have valid understanding of the students’ progress. This is more difficult across a wholeprogram with multiple instructors and course offerings, but it becomes almost impossible if theoutcomes are not clearly defined. The multiple definitions of entrepreneurship create many moreopportunities for confusion and misalignment across programs. By articulating the particulartype of entrepreneurship education being offered, administrators can better ensure thatcoursework across the program reflects the desired

The historical trend for the course is for approximately 27% ofthe students to earn A’s, 33% earn B’s, 23% to earn C’s, 8% to earn D’s and 9% to earn F’s(Figure 1). For the 2012 class, there appeared to be a dramatic shift within the gradedistributions from the historical trends. As shown in the Figure, 42% earned A’s, 16% earnedB’s, 7% earned C’s, 26% earned D’s and 9% earned F’s. Data were also compiled for the sameStatics class in the summer of 2013 (148 students

. Despite thebenefits of an approach teaching problem-solving skills first, the transition from pre-programming problem-solving courses to courses in which students should master a full-fledgeprogramming language remains a challenge 18, 22. This is reflected in the number of students(44%) who did not have an acceptable performance in either concepts or skills (Figures 4 and 5).Even though those students had passed a previous problem solving course, they find thetransition to a learning environment that uses a full-fledge programming language like Javadifficult.According to Mayer 17, in addition to the cognitive and metacognitive aspects of problemsolving, other aspects like motivation and engagement are also important determinants of studentsuccess

Although this situation wasconsidered, the students could not come up with a way to mitigate this confounding. Therefore,no further attempt to normalize the variable, besides compensate for lux to output, wasincorporated into the study.

Scores for pre- and post-intervention papers are compared statistically with Mann-Whitney U or Wilcoxon Matched Pairs tests. 4. Perceptions of Usefulness.

The lower performing section was the earlier 8 AM classwhen more students were apt to miss class, show up late, and be less engaged during the classlectures. The importance of the difference between the two sections is reflected in the unevendistribution of homework assignments. The section that performed better was assessed twicewith paper homework while the section that performed worse was assessed twice withWeBWorK homework. This would indicate the difference between paper-based homework andWeBWorK-based homework may be larger than directly indicated by the score averages weobtained. If only
