Would we accept non-t/tt faculty? 2. What would be the cost to participants? 3. How would the program be financed? 4. How would we recruit and select participants in a way that would be fair and also ensure diverse representation?The UD ADVANCE leadership team discussed these questions with our colleagues in the Lerner Collegeover the course of several months. To help us align our plans with the specific needs of our faculty weexamined the results of a recent (2016) faculty climate survey [17] (UD ADVANCE conducts such asurvey every two

Utilizing a structured active learning approach tothe planning and execution of a traditional weekly lecture series, students took full ownership ofeach week’s lecture. Faculty involvement shifted from active planner and host to merely keepinga list of lecture details provided by students. This shifting of responsibility to the studentschanged the focus of the lecture series experience from a passive weekly event to a student-centered activity, the goal of which was to make their week of hosting successful.At the conclusion of the lecture series, students were asked to complete a brief questionnaireregarding: 1) The lecture topics; 2) The key active learning tasks, and; 3) Their perceptions abouthow

Data science is anarea that utilizes competencies in computer science, statistics, research methods, and otherdomain focus areas (e.g., engineering, environment, and health) [11], [12]. Central to datascience is being able to work with and handle any forms of data (i.e., small, big, clean, messy,simple, and complex) using a lifecycle process of planning, collecting, processing, analyzing,preserving, sharing, and determining the course [13]–[18].

some even leavefor opportunities outside of school all together. As the field of engineering education researchgrows, more opportunities arise to examine what happens between the declaration of a major andthe planned graduation date that prompts so many students to exit the field. Much researchdiscusses how and why students initially choose a major (e.g., [1],[6]), but further discussion ofwhat happens between major declaration and planned graduation date is lacking in the existingliterature.Major selection is the focus of a large body of research involving higher education (e.g. [1], [2],[7], [8]). Research looking into major selection has been pursued from a variety of perspectives.Some research has focused on a broad range of college majors

Planning involves actions taken to help the learnerplan out their learning and cognitive tasks. Planning encompasses everything from gatheringappropriate resources to creating a time schedule for learning to the selection of a specificenvironment used for learning. Monitoring involves all actions that are used to determine if thecognitive task engaged in is on track to meet the intended goal. Monitoring can involve (but isnot limited to) checking progress on a particular task, checking understanding on a particularconcept, and checking that the procedure currently being used will reach the intended outcome.When a monitoring

. During ourpresentations at ASEE—both in conference sessions and in the NSF poster sessions—we offerthe tipsheets to attendees who express interest. We have also begun to use the tipsheets as thebasis for workshops and presentations. For example, at the American Association of Collegesand Universities STEM conference in November 2018, we presented a workshop on the topic ofshared vision for change projects. The interactive workshop was developed with the tipsheet asthe source of content, and the tipsheet served as a resource for attendees to take away for use ontheir home campuses.ConclusionAs of this writing, we have plans for additional tipsheets on topics that have emerged from whatwe are learning about the work of the RED teams.

However, this was the first time we, the facultyinvolved in the design project, worked together.We had several reasons for wanting to orchestrate a collaborative design project for our students.The opportunity for our students to work with others from outside of their discipline and culturewas a huge motivator, and we were confident the experience would improve their teamwork,communication, and social/empathic skills.

In this approach the assessment is planned before the classroom instruction is planned.
