Our study integrates theories of Organizational Leadership, EngineeringEducation, and Educational Psychology to investigate our students’ perceptions, attributions, andlessons learned in relation to team experiences.The methodological approach of this study was designed to elicit team members’ perceptions ofshared team experiences through a mixed-method research approach.

Students are asked to develop solutions to real-worlddesign problems to explore the specialization areas within the discipline, practice their problem-solving skills on real, sometimes "messy" problems, grow their engineering intuition and learn todistinguish between realistic and improbable solutions. Students will compile a learningportfolio throughout the semester documenting their design solutions for each module, as well asself-reflections on their initial choice of specialization and the impact modules had on theirchoice of specialization (either confirming their initial choice or providing evidence why analternative may be a better fit).The intended advantages of

From the below figure, two lines in particular are worth noting. In the year 2020, thetotal dependency ratio, as a measure of the burden on the working age population, is 64. Meaning,in the year 2020, there will be two dependents for every three working age adults. The combineddependency ratio, with the elderly population taking a higher percentage of the total dependencyratio, increases steadily through 2060, the last of the current estimated years. This dependency is,again, a reflection of a slower growing population, a declining fertility rate and a generally agingpopulation

Such perception of the faculty prevented minority students from asking questions inclass or approaching the faculty for help.” (p. 131)Additionally, Redmond’s [8] case study – in which they re-structured Stanford’s computerscience department to become more inclusive – found that one of the largest impacts on a womanmaintaining interest in computer science is how early she took her introductory computingcoursework. Thus, if women and minorities are mandated to take these introductory coursesearlier in their undergraduate curriculum, retention rates would likely increase. This sentimentwas reflected

Thirty-six engineering educators from thirteen HSIs from across the Southern UnitedStates participated in one of two, two-day workshops where attendees prototyped examples ofhow they would implement these philosophies at their home institution.

Teaching and Learning.1 One common argument againstsuch a system is that a single classroom visit is often not an accurate reflection of the learningthat occurs over an entire class, an argument which can also be made against peer evaluations,depending on the format of such programs. Expert evaluation can also be a very resource-intensive undertaking if it is to be done for all faculty at a university.Finally, some propose tracking student and student outcomes to assess teaching. This can bedone in a range of ways: following a student’s performance in more advanced courses to see theimpact of prior instruction; alumni surveys to ask which teaching they found impactful orparticularly instructive; or administering the same exam to all students to
