Project Lead theWay is a well-established program providing an engineering-specific curriculum and training tohigh school educators.This program can also be seen as a school-university partnership; however, most partnershipsfocus on teacher professional development. Brady describes that some of these partnershipsinclude supervision and mentoring, collaborative teaching initiatives, action research, jointprofessional development, shared planning, and school enrichment and support [4]. This programis a partnership focused on students.Ultimately, this program is innovative, as it is a university offering a high school class. The courseis unique to the university’s community.

Botswana towards sustainable economicgrowth, global competitiveness, and improved quality of life (Atkinson & Mayo, 2010). On October 1st, 2016 Botswana formed the Ministry of Tertiary Education, Research,Science and Technology with the explicitly stated goal of transforming Botswana from aresource-based to a knowledge-based economy. The impetus for such an initiative was set forthin Botswana’s Vision 2036. Set forth in 2016, this new “vision” for Botswana was predicated onthe mapping of a transformative agenda that reflected the aspirations and goals of the nation. Forthis vision to come to fruition it was imperative that Botswana create a strategic plan to help withredefining their resource-based economy to that of a knowledge-based

Most of the resultsindicate an inevitable role of the co-curricular spaces in the daily activities of students. Forexample, students of the surveyed group responded upon daily usage of the spaces, in which thenewly renovated space is among highly used regularly. The frequent use of the co-curricular areasof the library Annex and Zachry, suggested the interior design and environment in those two placesresemble in different aspects. For instance, both locations have access to coffee shops and studyresources. Also, the results further show the

In this phase, each teamexpands their literature review and proposes recommendations for pursuing future design andresearch efforts. These proposed efforts should create value in some way for a stakeholder groupthat is negatively impacted (or not positively impacted) by the current design. Students will writea report quantifying how their proposed improvements could create value for their chosenstakeholder group via changing the dynamics of bias in the situation being modeled.In contrast to Phase 1, where teams wrote for a non-technical audience, students are told to writethis deliverable for a

Puppy Playground is an engineering design activity that 5- to 7-year old children are asked to design a puppy playground for Eva’s puppy. They use the giant foam blocks in the science center to build their playground. To analyze the video recordings, we utilized a coding scheme based on our CT framework.

One type of programming thataddresses these concerns is international research experiences, which not only support thedevelopment of students’ global competencies and technical engineering skills [2], but alsoprovide benefits and opportunities for faculty members who coordinate these experiences.

A prototype, written procedures, and safe food handling plan is thendeveloped to be used for creating cookie sandwiches. The teams are then provided a smallquantity of cookies and frosting in order to perform a test.Prior to the two volunteers performing the assembly test, teams are given ten minutes to train thevolunteers however they see fit. The purpose of utilizing volunteers during the assembly test is tohelp students determine if the procedures are clear, if any assumptions have been made, and ifthey effectively communicated with the volunteers.

educational psychology studies argued that the study strategies comprise of thestudents’ behaviors related to learning, such as the ability to organize information, planning,motivation, and so on [9], [10]. Also, Graham & Robin [11] considered study strategies as thespecific processes taken by the students to learn a specific topic.Prior studies have researched the relationship between study strategies with students’ academicachievement. For instance, Sangiry and colleagues [12] have studied the different factorsresponsible for the academic achievement of pharmacy students.

It is our plan that by creating and promoting this Scholars Program,we will encourage more students to engage in these activities, potentially up to 25-50 students perclass year. To date we’ve had one cohort of nine scholars graduate with the next cohort expectedto complete their requirements this spring.In the rest of this paper we will discuss the history of the program, as well as our experiences todate in administering the program.

The students who do not opt to completethe PBH assignments will serve as the control group of students for data comparison for the PBHstudents. The incoming grades of all students will be looked at by obtaining student grades fromthe previous “Statics” course in sequence through the University IKM (institutional knowledgemanagement) database to gauge the type of student and their interest.
