In concluding, the author presents hisown reflections based on his experience as an engineering student and a faculty member.The author has a firm conviction that the only professor who belongs in a classroom is acaring professor.IntroductionA caring faculty understands, encourages and supports students’ individuality and issensitive to students’ needs.

Paper flyers and email messages are sent to the 70 differentacademic units on campus inviting graduate students, faculty, and staff to attend. Individuals arefree to register for as few or as many of the workshops as they would like. Graduate studentswho participate in at least eight of the ten workshops have the opportunity to earn one-hourpass/no-pass credit by simultaneously enrolling in a course on college teaching.

WiSE-FPP operates at this individual level to support women’s persistenceand success in STEM. By offering programs and events that provide skills and strategies fornegotiating gender-based inequalities in academia and industry, WiSE-FPP seeks to underminethese systems of inequality one STEM graduate at a time.Gender MattersIn the 1970’s, the women’s rights movement coined the phrase, “the personal is political.” Thestatement reflects the belief that women’s personal struggles reach beyond their individual livesto inequalities embedded in institutional contexts.

The facilitator does not serve as a traditional instructor but rather guides the studentsthrough self-directed learning. The problems are designed to be ill-structured and challenging tothe students, as well as relevant to them. The problems must be sufficiently challenging thatstudents cannot solve them with existing knowledge so new knowledge must be generated withthe help of the facilitator. To solve the problem, students must gather information, generatehypothesis for possible solutions, identify knowledge gaps, and repeat this process until asolution is reached. Reflection on the solution process is a critical part of the learning

Specific findings centered on the idea that expectations should bemade clear to students as early as possible. We conclude with the implications for the graduateengineering community and offer recommendations for faculty members interested in continuingthis discussion at their institution.BackgroundDespite ongoing research in higher education, the basic model of doctoral education hasremained unchanged for several decades1.

Having been inthis process, one was more likely to have reflected on any noticeable performance gaps and tohave thought more deeply about what direction engineering education should take. As for university respondents, it was assumed that any faculty member who had beenrequired to teach courses (presumably all faculty members) would have been involved incurriculum development and therefore would have had experience in this area. Therefore, facultymember participation was limited only by years of experience and level of involvement inteaching electrical engineering courses. In addition, to provide a ―big picture‖ perspective, onefaculty respondent was chosen who had also

If the student had a difficult day, poor night’s sleep or any other wealth of personalissues, the impact on their performance during that hour could likely be significant5. A one hourwritten exam also limits the complexity of the problems. With only an hour, it is difficult to givestudents problems beyond a certain level of difficulty or complexity. A problem worth solvingshould require some time to reflect and the consideration of a few different approaches.

Although the course content for each school differssignificantly, design remains overall the most important aspect of education in architecture.Design courses are often worth far higher credit points than other courses, and thisprioritization is reflected in the arrangement of courses. However, some schools still use oldmodels in their design courses and neglect to offer specialized courses. The willingness oftheir students to learn is subsequently low, and this is reflected in complaints by teachers.Many students are initially filled with excitement, imagination, and dreams

This gradedistribution appears to indicate grade inflation. The large number of A’s relative to the number ofB and C’s is related to the number of projects that were judged to be worth 1 unit (9 credit hours)per student. In this review, it was determined that 29% of the projects completed weremarginally worth 1 unit or did not worth 1 unit at all.

Poetry writing for those interested individuals has provided an avenue forcommunication.When an earlier paper began with the following quotation, “Variety's the spice of life, that givesit its flavor,” it echoed a feeling that stifling the creativity of any group of individuals is notproductive. Allowing these individuals to range across various types of communication is notonly good for engineers expressing themselves but for the production they produce in theirengineering activities. These lines in "The Task, I" by William Cowper (English poet 1731-1800) still reflect an attitude over two hundred later that must he fostered in the minds ofengineers.
