A comparison between mathematical modeling and experimental data will enablestudents to explore deviation of theoretical models from the physical system as also how well anassumption may describe a real system behavior.ConclusionsThe SLOs related to the course implementation of the learning modules are related to the twomain areas: (1) introductory notions for thermodynamics and fluid mechanics and (2) energyconversion and energy efficiency, from estimation to direct quantification. Therefore ABETcriteria and b will guide our SLO assessment as main criteria [7]. Also, criterion c will beimportant to assess, due to experimental nature of the activities developed. The

To assist in this process, four evaluationcriteria were established: (a) likely to have a high impact on student learning; (b) strongassessment methods; (c) novel or innovative; (d) transferability (to other institutions ordisciplines); these were rated on a scale from 1 (low) to 4 (high). An overall evaluation on levelof interest / excitement for including this teaching example in further research employed a 1(low) to 10 (highest) scale. Raters could also provide open comments. The interviewees wereasked to rate at least six de-identified teaching examples, and 29 sets of ratings were completed.The five members of

(b) How dowe capture and map teachers’ strategies over the course a design task? and (c) To what extent dothe observed high leverage practices coincide with the nature of the design task?Theoretical frameworkThis study draws upon the literature on ambitious teaching. The idea of ambitious teaching hasbeen developed by researchers in multiple subject matter areas including science, mathematics,and secondary literacy [2], [6], [7]. Ambitious teaching involves structuring opportunities forlearners to reason about key subject matter ideas, participate in the discourse of the discipline,and solve authentic problems [8]. In the science classroom, this means that students learn how

At the start, the paper provides an overview of relevant benchmarks ofengineering education in the Region. Then, relates author’s preliminary findings onteaching/learning practices in engineering colleges of the Region, sheds light on the pros andcons of the lecture format, and examines the literature on meanings and substance ofdifferent active learning protocols, focusing on cooperative engagement strategies. Thepaper, also, sheds light on: theoretical roots, research support, current practices, andsuggestions for redesigning classes, if need be, to stimulate interaction and help
towards this question,indicating that the creative problem solving strategies may help their learning and facilitatethem to find right solutions to homework or exams. Based on students’ response to Question 1, i.e., “what benefits you get from your project”(see Table 1A and Table 1B in Appendix), the average of accounts by both ResearchAssistant A and Research Assistant B indicate that about 14% of the participants believedthat the community service learning with creative problem solving scaffolding can lead tobetter academic performance in their subsequent studies, such as “Helps me build work forthe next semester” (Interviewee 2, 2015 Fall), “learn to study in a better way, be moreaccurate.” (Interviewee 4, 2016 Fall), “Help studies…help

First, theproposed smart parking plan and related details from students research has been forwarded tocampus transportation and parking staff to inform their efforts to implement such a system.Secondly, the student efforts to update the five-year old campus GHG inventory has resulted inthe campus investing in staff time and latest on-line Cool Planet calculator license that has builtin benchmarking and strategy evaluation tools. Lastly, ongoing campus planning efforts aregoing to add a resilience component.References:1. Lantz, H. B. (2009). Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Education What Form?
