In addition, studentswere asked to explain how, if at all, they had applied what they learned from our interventions(the class workshop and materials on metacognitive and study skill practice), and to explain theiranswers. Finally, students were asked to list strategies that they had learned from ourinterventions that they intended on using in future semesters. Responses to journal prompts

The purposes of the class are to:  Graduate the student in engineering,  Develop the student professionally with subjects not taught in the classroom, and  Send the graduated student directly to graduate school full-time.The class is built on the “Guaranteed 4.0 Plan” by Donna O. Johnson.5 This system has anexcellent time management plan and teaches the students “how to learn” and how to earn andmaintain a straight “A” average. Other topics include: resumes, elevator speeches, how to work acareer fair, portfolios, the 4+1 plan, graduate school, research, career plans for 10 years

Presentations were arranged so each instructor had achance to talk about teaching the concepts of loops, variables, conditionals, and functions at theirrespective grade level, allowing teachers to understand curricular progressions across the K-12grade span.An outline of the course schedule can be found below in Figure 2.
