Thisprovides a tested syllabus with proven deliverables and existing pedagogy. From a technologyperspective, preference is given to technologies that are already familiar to students and faculty.A dynamic offering of video-based lecture content inclusive of course slides is the basis of theonline course.Learning objectives and achievements for the online course match those of the correspondingface-to-face course.

Tasksinvolving assessment and self-reflection of study skills currently possessed by the participantsresulted in lively discussion and a deeper understanding of what they needed to do differentlyonce they get to college.Summary of Challenges and Opportunities for Delivering an Online Summer Bridge ProgramOne challenge was that the online course needed more preparation time and almost the entirecourse had to be ready before the class began. In a face-to-face course the syllabus is planned inadvance, but instructors can usually develop materials as the course progresses. Now that thepreparation has been done, future iterations of the online

We relied on a series of research papers as the core readingsfor the course, which provided us with a better overview of recent research in software reuse.Our reuse course was designed to be a seminar course, not a pure lecturing course, at the outset.The active learning and cooperative learning strategies were implemented as follows.¾ ORIENTATION AND MOTIVATIONThe students could be active learners only if they were motivated and found the subject matterinteresting and challenging. The first two classes of the semester were thus devoted to motivatingthe students. In particular, the importance of software reuse was emphasized. In addition to thecommonly cited

Having such a small proportion (3%) of citations and in-text references be complete shows that students were not adequately prepared for this element ofcommunication. It is possible that calling the final deliverable a “memo” instead of “report”caused students to think that providing citations was not necessary, however, this should havebeen addressed by the students between the first draft (milestone 3) and the final deliverable(milestone 5).The results of this study suggests engineering faculty to engage in further collaborations with theLibraries to develop focused instructional interventions to help students improve theirinformation gathering techniques, evaluation of information

, which became a phenomenon in the twentieth century, havealways employed part-time faculty. When most of these colleges were small, administratorshired secondary school instructors to teach courses such as physics, chemistry, and biologyrather than have a single instructor present all the college courses in the sciences13. Universityprofessors also taught at community colleges on a part-time basis. Part-time faculty also offeredspecialized courses in which current faculty and staff did not have subject matter expertise. In1969 approximately 27% of faculty at community colleges were part-time and that grew to 52%in 198714.The use of part-time faculty shows no signs of slowing. The number of part-time facultyincreased by 133% from 1971 to 1986

as an elective, reaching arelatively small audience. Recently, authors increasingly argue that teaching an entrepreneurialmindset requires an integrated approach.2,3,4Kettering University has adopted this approach by trying to incorporate entrepreneurial ideasdirectly into existing classes. This can be difficult to accomplish for several reasons. First,engineering professors find it difficult to make room in the course syllabus for an entrepreneurial Page 22.845.2education. Further, many faculty have not been exposed to the “entrepreneurial mindset” andthus do not feel prepared to broach the subject in class. Kettering University has
