Therefore, itmay be better to delay participation in such activities until after receiving tenure.Recommendations on Early Career ServiceAs discussed, new, untenured engineering faculty members at research institutions need todetermine how to best balance their time between teaching, research, and service. In most cases,service contributions will be of less concern for a tenure review committee than research andteaching accomplishments. As large time commitments are the primary detriment to performingservice, an untenured faculty member needs to weigh the potential career benefits versus the timespent on a service activity. With these thoughts in mind, the following

path for grade preservation.Faculty PerspectiveFor the MECH 311 course, homework grading that formerly took two to four hours now takesunder an hour for completion. Faculty frustration is lower because students are responsible forinterpreting their own efforts. More and more faculty at The Citadel are implementing the dual-submission homework policy to the perceived improvement of their teaching effectiveness. Aspecific concern from a faculty member was that she would lose site of the struggling student.However, this is not an issue as it is still apparent to the faculty by reviewing the gradedsubmission. This approach reinforces to the student that completing homework is solely for thebenefit of the student.ConclusionThe results from this

Participants werealso asked to bring a curriculum module, textbook, laptop, and any other resources that wouldaid in formulating a new pedagogical innovation. At the end of the hackathon, participantsdemonstrated their new pedagogical innovations to each other. Two hackathons took place oneweek apart, with participants asked to attend at least one. Ten participants attended the firsthackathon, and six attended the second, with one faculty member choosing to attend both events.A key lesson from the event was that the concept of a teaching hackathon
