Due to the lack of proper equipment, at thestart of the project the focus was given to investigating the basic and elementary parametersinvolved in the complex behavior of the release-connection that was tested previously in theplant of the company. These were: a) to investigate the friction coefficient of connection between the concrete slab and walls in post-tensioned construction, and testing the resistance of concrete blocks against applied loads in variety of conditions. b) to investigate the behavior of a compressible material that is used to wrap the rebar, as a release detail, for slab and walls in post-tensioned construction.The essential equipment required to perform these tasks are loading and displacement

three main pillars: a)bilingualism and biliteracy, b) high academic achievement and c) sociocultural and criticalconsciousness competence. These foundational pillars work off of each other so that, forinstance, bilingualism becomes an asset in achieving sociocultural competence as well asacademic achievement.A landmark longitudinal study [7] of program options for students classified as ELs. Theycompared several program options, including English as a second language, early-exit bilingualeducation, late-exit bilingual education, one-way dual language, and two-way dual languageeducation. They found that two-way dual language education was the most effective in “closingthe achievement gap for all student groups across ethnicity, social class, and

autograded question types into a single question, butfree-text answers (such as explanations) are not allowed in a Cloze question. Brightspace cannot createmultipart questions, but multiple questions can be grouped into a single section. Still the questions willhave different numbers (e.g. Question 1, Question 2), not Question 1 (a) …. (b) … The platform thatdoes this best, in the author’s view, is Webassign, which allows “multi-mode” questions to contain up to40 different parts of any question type that Webassign offers.A related issue is where the blanks in the question are located. Ideally the test author should be able toplace them in any desired configuration, because some questions may ask the student to fill in a table,whereas other questions
conceptualized HC as a structural framework that containsseveral interconnected, moving parts. These moving parts include norms, customs, cultures,values, and traditions that are structurally supported and sustained through individuals, socialgroups, or systems to maintain a status quo. In the conceptualization of the structural framework,four factors were identified as being important at initiating a disruption of the status quo [2]: (a)hidden curriculum awareness-HCA; (b) emotions- EM; (c) self-efficacy-SE; and (d) self-advocacy- SA. HCA is a factor by which information being communicated is discerned [6].Emotions manifest how the HC is received and recognized and is considered an importantmediator to processes like decision-making [2].

We present examples of the ways that these students developed, evaluated,and revised assumptions as a team while solving this problem. Before the first team meeting, asdirected by the instructor, students worked independently to make several assumptions: eachstudent decided 1) how high or low the chair should be capable of moving in relation to the pooldeck, 2) the user’s recommended weight limit, and 3) the length or position of severalcomponents of the system, including the lengths of members CD, BE, DF, and GH, the positionsof points B and C, and the positions of hinges G and H (Figure 1).

worthwhile mentioning two challenges in the implementation of this model: one,there is a relative lack of biographies and historical narratives involving social justice and equityissues that include significant physics content at an introductory level; two, getting students toread books remains a persistent problem. This latter problem was partially mitigated in mycourses by making these projects a small but significant part of the course grade. Most studentsin these courses are undergraduate life-science majors who are highly motivated to do well inorder to enhance their chances of gaining admission to medical or dental schools.References[1] B.

Second, we wanted this effort to bedifferent from other common programming instruction, where coding activities use programmingas the core of instruction and application in authentic and student-selected contexts generallyplays a secondary role [4].With these instructional goals in mind we spent time planning out how to incorporate and alignactivities that focused on: a) the design process, b) basic ideas of programming andcomputational thinking, and c) open-ended design challenges.

If necessary, participants are encouraged to learn new skills to meet theneeds of challenges. Faculty advisors and mentors for the Cohort Challenges must be attentive tostudent goals and activities; their supervision makes it possible to have learning outcomes thatare adaptable on the one hand, and still allow advisors to hold students accountable for achievingthose outcomes. Although less fixed than learning objectives in traditional graduate education,this component is an important element of a successful Cohort Challenge. B.
