and the team lead must beresponsible for integrating every piece together5. The same strategy has been successfully used insoftware industry and is called “modular programming”, by which a complicated programmingassignment is divided into small, manageable procedures6. To use the MPS effectively, threerequirements have to be ensured5. Firstly, a main procedure always needs to be created tocoordinate and integrate the work of all individual procedures. Secondly, all the sub-proceduresonly communicate with their direct superior procedures. Thirdly, any “cross-talk” among thesub-procedures at the same level is not allowed.

In this third term, two differentprofessors were teaching the course. One of the professors (Prof C) made no commitment to theprocess, and despite the emails, only two of his students sparsely attended during the term. Theother professor (Prof B) promoted the tutor several times during the term, as well as providedhomework problems and solutions which were consistently assigned and graded throughout theterm. A more consistent response was seen from this professor’s students, providing furtherinsight into the minds

Based on the course grade withhomework performance, it is found that students who earned an “A” submitted almost allassigned homework during the semester. On the other hand, if the student submitted only 63% oftheir homework did not succeed at the end. Another observation states that homework score isalso correlated with the final course grade. For example, when a student earned an “A” on thecourse, his/her homework score was above 90 in average.

Students are able to algebraically manipulate equations and to discern relationships between variables knowing that if A is taller than B, and B is taller than C, then A must be taller than C and that if Z = X+Y then Y=Z-X.  Conservation. Students can understand that certain characteristics can be conserved even in different forms so that logical relationships can be formulated. The content in classes on material and energy balances rely fundamentally on such conservation principles – although conservation of energy is much more complex for students who use concrete reasoning.

Then, this metal inside theheating chamber was pressed using piston and a conventional hydraulic jack. The chamber wassubsequently cooled down to allow the molten metal inside the pores of AAO to crystallize.Then the residual metal was carefully removed from the top of the AAO film by peeling it off byhand.
