To the end of improved training in software testing for our students, this paper presents empiricalstudies conducted in multiple undergraduate CS/SE programming courses at two large publicuniversities (University A and University B). The goal of our study is two-fold: 1) to evaluate theimpact of using WReSTT on the undergraduate students’ acquisition of knowledge and proficiencyof using testing techniques and tools, and 2) to demonstrate that using WReSTT resulted inimproved learning for students on their programming assignments and their ability to use testingtools on their team projects.1 http://wrestt.cis.fiu.edu/about-wrestt

Two instructors, A and B, teaching from the same syllabus,same course notes, and with a very similar active teaching approach, used both the Pulley IBLAand the Rolling Cylinder IBLA in their class sections. Instructor A did the Pulley IBLA using ahands-on student approach, while Instructor B did the IBLA as a professor-led demonstration.For the Cylinder IBLA, they switched; Instructor A did the demo while Instructor B did thehands-on. We compared results from targeted questions on the Dynamics Concept Inventory(DCI) between the two groups, and also compared these results with other instructors who do notuse the IBLAs and who teach in a more traditional lecture-based approach.For

The instructor then measures the desired distance fortolerance from the first line, labels that point, and draws a line parallel to the tolerance from thefirst line drawn. Using the two shorter pieces of plastic, the instructor then tapes one on each lineto create the walls in 3-D. Finally, the instructor labels the plane and tolerance zone. Figure 1.

due to hull volume and weight. As a vehicle’s speed increases, itsdisplacement force is replaced by a hydrodynamic force, and the tunnel boat is said to plane. Asthis occurs, the portion of the hull touching the water, the wetted surface, decreases. At higherspeeds, a less wetted surface is required to support the hull. Sponson width, b, is fixed by thedesigner. As vehicle speed increases, the length of the hull touching the water, l, decreases. Thisincreases the aspect ratio b/l and improves the coefficient of lift of the sponson. As a result, thewetted surface area needed to support the hull decreases up until the limit of the balance ofpower and drag or until the vehicle becomes unstable. Calculations for hull wetted surface andthe

For this study, weused one of these factors—the engineering major confidence factor—which captures students’belief in their ability to succeed as an undergraduate majoring in engineering. Items in this factorare: § I can succeed in an engineering major § I can complete the math requirements for most engineering majors § I can succeed in an engineering major while not having to give up participation in my outside interests § I can excel in an engineering major during the current academic year § I can succeed (earn either an A or B) in an advanced physics course § I can complete any engineering

An experienced calculusinstructor, Sara, was recruited from a community college because of her success in preparingstudents, many from backgrounds similar to those of the GS students, for calculus. The GSProgram’s initial Pre-Calc offering was successful. The overwhelming majority of students metstringent requirements (grade of B- or better) for moving into the calculus sequence after onesemester; most of those who did not initially achieve a B- or better grade did so the followingsemester after taking

Landis14 toincrease the quality of the educational experience of first-year engineering undergraduatestudents. Typically, approaches to increase the nature and quality of undergraduate educationexperience are focused on instructional and/or curricular changes. The DYP program is differentin that it focuses on what the students can do themselves to become self-regulated students andtherefore are not only more likely to graduate with an engineering degree but also with a higherquality, i.e. with a higher GPA.

This enabled us to move some of the learning that previously tookplace in time-intensive projects to a more traditional classroom setting. Two productarchaeology reports were generated by each student team. The first was due mid-term and wascompleted out of class. The artifact on which this mid-term report was written was the “Oral-B®3D White™ battery powered toothbrush” (Walmart product number 553890159).

The decision support systemrecommends students predicted to have a FS GPA of CT or below to have a B or higher in pre-calculus. This rule is further investigated by studying two cohorts of students with a FS GPA ofCT or below, students that did not stay past four semesters, and students that did stay for at leastfour semesters.
