/product-based learning (PBL). To make effectiveuse of the makerspace in class, it’s helpful to offer simultaneous support in both the technicaltraining and pedagogical design. “B-Fab,” the Bucknell Fabrication Workshop is a summertechnical and pedagogical workshop for faculty and staff that aims to boost faculty and staffcomfort within the makerspace and to coach participants in the design of good EML/PBLexperiences within the makerspace.This paper discusses the implementation of the three-day workshop, the topics addressed, and theoutcomes. In its three years of existence, 50 people have participated, and generated nearly 30new or substantially expanded assignments or outreach activities that have been shared as KEEN“Cards.” Initial qualitative

Examples includeworking with tangram pieces to implement sustainability into traditional engineering design [35];reading and discussing Mixed Bag in Michigan activity for risk (Appendix A); and completingpersonal water footprint discussion with advanced questioning activity (Appendix B).Data were collected in Fall 2016 and in Spring 2017, from two sections each semester taught bytwo instructors (four sections total). The instructors used the same material, homework, lectureslides and activities, developed by the lead author, for their respective sections. Data collectedfor this study

Thesame procedure was repeated for locations “C” and “D”.The last part of the test was done with no steam injection. All four steam injection holes werecovered with soil and temperatures were recorded for 21 minutes. At the 14 minute mark TC1,TC2, and TC3 were disconnected from TC meters, TM4 was replaced with TC4 and all fourthermocouples were connected to a data acquisition (DAQ) computer that tracked thetemperatures overnight.

Panelists provide insights in the paper and during the panelinto a) choosing not to move on and remain at an institution, and b) choosing and explaining whythey moved on. Panelists explore what benefits and costs arose from each decision. Whilediverse panelists were selected, the organizers realize that the panelists offer only their ownexperiences, and so there will be focused time for questions and input from the participants. Abroad range of experiences and wisdoms regarding this challenging decision are shared in thismanuscript as well as during the interactive panel discussion on career self-authorship.IntroductionThis paper presents perspectives from four women in engineering who

directed.Despite instructors’ aspirations, students who have mastered the procedural tasks for a givenexam – and even those who have gained a deep understanding of the relevant concepts – stillmake errors when working out answers to exam questions. Different types of exams handle thesemistakes differently. For the purpose of this paper, common math exam types are categorizedinto three groups: 1) essay, 2) multiple choice, and 3) computer assisted. These types varyprimarily along parameters of a) scoring entity and b) partial credit. Exam type is often selectedalong these parameters for practical reasons such as class size and grading time required (seeCherkas and Roitberg [2]).The possibility for exams to be used as formative assessments exists.
