The author pulls content from students to put minimal content on the board touse for completing an example problem prior to a homework problem (Figure 1). The boardnotes shown are the actual practice session by the faculty member, in color, in his/herhandwriting, and how he hopes the content will appear on the whiteboard during the class.ModelPrior to completing Worksheet 11D or during completion of Worksheet 11D (Appendix I), theauthor uses the following model (Figure 2), a

Development of a computer-oriented student learning community. The objective of this project component is to provide participating students with future-oriented motivation to complete their State College AA degree and their BS degree in computer science at FAU. In the project, the learning community will provide students with three key elements: (a) extended collegial connections with other student participants as well as opportunities for them to join student engineering clubs. (b) ongoing contact with regional high-tech corporate representatives
instudent development theory to select and train Peer Advisers to lead small groups. Theengineering academic advising office and new students office have worked together to createcontent for four meetings of these small groups each quarter. By focusing on keeping the contentrelevant and timely, we have been able to raise student satisfaction with the course and withengineering. Additionally, we have added support for the Peer Advisers to ensure theirsatisfaction and the course’s continued success. Challenges in communication and planningbetween the two offices remain, particularly in training the Peer Advisers.References[1] Barefoot, B. O. (1992).

The selection committee is provided a rating of (a) high, (b)medium, (c) low, or (d) no need based on a student’s unmet need for the application year.Academic talent is judged from applicant transcripts with emphases on relevant coursework,high school GPA, and class rank. Interest in the field is evaluated from student responses to shortessay prompts that are part of the application. Student resumes are reviewed to determine thebreadth and depth of involvement in extracurricular activities.

In the 1990s, therules for H-1B visas given to foreigners to work in the U.S. were liberalized to accommodate theneeds of the U.S. industry. Then, in 2001, in response to concerns about the adverse impact of H-1B on the U.S. labor force [1], the U.S. Congress allocated additional funds to the ComputerScience, Engineering, and Mathematics Scholarship (CSEMS) program at the National ScienceFoundation (NSF) by making significant changes to the H1-B Visa allocations and fees [2].Since then, CSEMS [3] and its replacement program
