. Serving as a model for waterquality and quantity management, students engaged in hands-on experiences using a small-scalewetlands setup in the Cook Laboratory for Bioscience Research at Rose-Hulman Institute ofTechnology. In independent research projects, undergraduate research students measured waterquality parameters including TSS, BOD and nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus) and optimizedremoval of various contaminants. In the classroom in Environmental Engineering Laboratory,students measured water quality parameters of various water bodies within a watershed andresearched the impacts of excess nutrients on water quality and economies. Students toured theconstructed treatment wetlands and were able to learn directly from a peer who had

The worksheet was instructor-led, but also served as a reference guide as theparticipants completed their research projects. The next activity introduced participants to peerreview and feedback. The participants were able to present their proposed research topics to theirpeers and instructors and get “peer review” feedback, which they integrated into their projectdesign.The next activity was an introduction to writing college-level research reports and incorporatingcitations, beginning with how and why sources are used and how to cite sources properly.

scale.Regarding the impact of S-L on their learning, the mean answers of the students were positive (atthe 5% statistical level); in particular the students valued the team work experience that S-Lprovides, and agree that service should be an expected part of the engineering profession.The final analysis focuses on the quality of the learning mechanisms as expressed by thestudents. We build the analysis on the students’ optional comments, classifying them as positive,neutral or negative. We relate the comments’ tone to learning mechanisms, e.g. in-classdiscussions, presentations, journal writing, report writing, and other type of writing. Studentsengaged in no formal assessment exercises report no positive comments. The exercises whichlead to more

education courses, this project addresses the need for standardization of lower division courses in engineering. With this project, engineering students at different institutions receive the same lectures, lab experiences, and examinations thereby ensuring that student learning outcomes are the same at different institutions. Thus the project not only helps in the assessment of student learning outcomes but also facilitates the transfer of credits as students decide to enroll in other institutions. This fact is particularly useful in New Mexico where a great percentage of students take credits from peer institutions other than their home institutions. 3.

We used an Echo smartpen system, which employs a small camera in the tip of the pen (along with specially printed paper) to record everything the student writes in a time-stamped way. • Thought process: we asked students to follow a think-aloud protocol and describe their thoughts and actions verbally during the experiment.

With a progressive seriesof student assignments, in-class activities, and weekly retrospective writing assignments,students are guided to reflect on class experiences. These tasks help students to use classroomlearning to inform future decisions. Recognizing the diverse strengths and backgrounds of ourstudents, the assignments

This stage consistsof the preparatory and recruitment phases of a student into the doctoral program, where the student’sknowledge about graduate education is mostly based on stereotypes and generalizations. In the formal stageof the socialization process, the student receives formal instruction regarding the role. The student, as anapprentice, observes older students in the same role of pursuing a Ph.D. and learns the normativeexpectations of the role. The student’s interactions are mostly informative and aim to integrate them into therole. The informal stage consists of the student learning of the informal expectations of the role.

Plagiarism is an issue that can plague any coursethat asks students to submit independently created work. Traditionally, plagiarism has beenassociated with writing assignments, and there are a wide variety of tools and interventionsavailable for both identifying and preventing plagiarism on these assignments.

Of all first-time freshman twenty-nine percent took at least one remedial course (24% math, 17% writing, and 13% reading). · In 1997, just 34% of freshmen reported having spent six or more hours per week studying during their senior year in high school, an all-time low (compared to 44% in 1987).

community; it is “the development of the individual as a social being andparticipant in society,” (p. 3) a process undertaken so that individuals can conform to theirsocieties or groups 2. The process of socialization generally includes acquisition of transmittedknowledge and language, and “learning of social roles and of moral norms” 2 (p. 4).This definition of socialization can be translated to the context of doctoral education. In thiscontext, the process of socialization still involves an individual‟s process of becoming a part of agroup; the difference lies in the community or culture the individuals are being socialized into.Golde 3 writes that socialization for graduate students is really an “unusual double socialization”(p.56): students

format. For example, in a face-to-face format, collaboration and pairprogramming works well. Some instructors have even been successful implementing distributedpair programming in an online course [5]. However, in a flexible schedule, online format (Flex),the implementation of these activities is particularly challenging. In the Flex format, studentsstart the course at different points in the semester, work at their own pace and may not beworking on the same module at the same time. The asynchronous nature of the class makes itparticularly difficult for students to interact with each other. We propose the use of discussionboards within the learning management system to help create peer-to-peer code sharingexperiences in a Flex class. In this
