for rapid and global sharing of ideasthroughout the program. These allow collaboration to begin before travelling and to continueafter the trip. It is also essential in global education to recognize the needs of participants. GPPwas founded on the belief that global competency is incredibly important, but that graduatestudents cannot afford the time spent for such a trip over a whole semester. Finally, weencourage people to go. There is no substitute for physically walking around a new place,hearing conversations in another language, and experiencing life somewhere else in the world.References 1. L. B. Denney, M.

automated grader, managing the grading was challenging for ECCinstructors, as students were unable to receive quality feedback in a prompt manner. Because ofthe sheer volume of items to be graded, instructors were forced to find alternate methods to fullmanual grading. Methods tried for this course include: a) grading one submission at random perweek, b) using highly specific quizzes to elicit correct/incorrect values, c) using the BMpublisher’s assessment tool, SNAP, and d) relying on summative assessments only (no gradingof homework assignments).In the random selection method, a graduate student or teaching assistant reviewed a singledatabase submitted for each student per week. The submission was considered complete only ifall the components

In practice, it is important to properly prepare students’ minds regarding thesespecial arrangements.Since the participating students were all first-year engineering students, the instructor alsoattempted to evaluate whether and to what extent their skills meet the various requirementsand constraints of a globally distributed team. The evaluation was conducted based on theinstructor’s subjective observations, against the benchmark of the third-year engineeringstudents in another global course [9]. Firstly, most of the students had demonstrated strongcommunication skills. In particular, since there is no

Toreduce the possibility of an instructor-related bias, a guest lecturer was used. Furthermore, thethree instructors each completed a widely-used Teaching Goals Inventory (TGI) to determine ifthere were significant differences between their approaches to teaching statics. Cluster scores forthe TGI were compared using the non-parametric, bivariate correlation using Spearman’s rhothat revealed significant correlations between all pairs of instructors: Instructors A and B(ρ=.975, p, accessed Feb. 2016.19.

We then selected interview questions that inquired aboutfaculty members’ and instructors’ teaching experience, their criteria for selecting textbooks, andtheir potential interest in using OERs (Appendix B). Ultimately, we reached four faculty orinstructors whose average instruction experience ranged from four to 16 years. The intervieweesincluded three female and one male. The interviewees included two clinical assistant professors,one associate professor, and one professor.

This will allow enough time to order various parts required by the project to arrive intime so that students will hit the ground running at the semester when they are to execute theproject.If it were to replicate this work on a larger scale, for example to automate the irrigation systemand conserve water for a large farm by using renewable energy sources, a number of factorsshould be taken into consideration: a.
