Alumni who are employers as well have a very significant impact.” • “Many employers are pleased with the process we go through in program improvement. They often wish that students were more familiar with the ABET program assessment process since is it so similar to many industrial QC/QM processes.” • “Deficiencies in student learning.” • “Engaged faculty provides the best feedback for continuous improvement.

assistant), professors may opt for assessments that are easier to grade, such as multiple-choice exams or assignments with clear-cut answers, instead of more time-consuming butpotentially more meaningful forms of evaluation, like essays or project-based assessments.My findings overall highlight a misalignment of priorities among faculty. This excessive focuson preventing dishonesty can overshadow efforts to address more impactful aspects of education,such as refining course content, developing innovative teaching strategies, and creating a moreenriching learning experience for students [33], [34].. Instead, faculty should also balance inemphasizing improving test design and preparation strategies, which can be more effective andbeneficial to

Particularly, faculty perceptions of institutional rewards for productive researchover teaching provide little incentive for course improvement.3Teaching assistants (TAs) can be valuable resources in facilitating the transition of a traditionalengineering course to include active learning techniques; however, prior studies indicate thatpeople tend to teach how they were taught,4 contributing further to this lack of course reform.TA training can help prepare graduate students to teach in this new course structure.

It is generally discussed as just a short section on the equilibrium of a rigid body. Thecurrent treatment of this topic in statics books needs to be revised.
