obviously, faculty consider the relative importance ofteaching, publishing, and garnering external funding in hiring, promotion, and tenure decisions.14Where graduate programs exist teaching obligations may be defined in terms of masters anddoctoral level students - more obviously compatible with one's research. If the institution invitesor allows this broader definition for the assessment of teaching, faculty are less likely to feelpressure to make undergraduate teaching a high priority. The realities of daily life forengineering faculty, like liberal arts faculty, do not lend themselves to a radical reconstruction oftheir educational activities.External Influences on the Institution Changing ABET requirements press engineering programs to

other things that make you happy. (Marcus) Competence, on the other hand, focuses on how students understand STEM concepts andknowledge beyond their performance in class. It considers their comprehension of STEM materialoutside of formal assessments. Elisa mentions, I would say that I do have a STEM identity, just because I have a very strong motivation to enter that field. And it kind of feels like, to me, that my whole life has led me on this path, not from anything special, but it just feels like it’s the best fit for me and the way I want to go about life. So it’s a very challenging and very time-consuming path, for sure. But I think it offers a lot in return for putting in all that effort. And it’s

method of addressing the issue of variance reduction due to group evaluation inthis type of projects course is well treated by Earle and Wood12. To determine individual gradesfrom group efforts, they use a nomograph in conjunction with (a) student assigned values ofpercent contribution for each member of their own group, and (b) an overall team grade assignedby the instructor. This assumes, of course, that the students provide an honest assessment oftheir peers, and on the whole this would seem to be a reasonable assumption if it is done “in theblind”. To evaluate the initial project proposals, we used a similar concept but did not use thesame approach. We had the students rank the project proposal presentations and the instructorprovided his

We also find it encouraging that a conversation occurred after the studentshad answered question three (responses 72 to 97): Although it was brief and inconclusive,it was impressive in light of the fact that it was the first day the students had used theThought Cloud and that both parties comprising the classroom culture were Page 23.940.14unaccustomed and perhaps uneasy with substantial discussion of physics concepts.Charles’ Use of the Thought CloudThe second time Charles used version 1 of the tool with his students, in late February, heprepared a

, I took liberties to construct excitingopportunities that would allow me to learn and grow.To do so, I had to change advisors to find the right person to support my path, write essays tovalidate my efforts, and meet with administrators to get approval for unconventional approachesand opportunities. Most of my PhD professors approved requests to modify projects targetedtoward faculty preparation to be more entrepreneurial. For example, for the anchor course,Content Assessment and Pedagogy, instead of developing a detailed course syllabus (which wasthe assignment), I pitched an idea to my client to write new curricula that would go on to be myfirst product in a ~million-dollar portfolio for them. That's right! I got paid to do a

because C must either be 0 or 1; hence theTH22 gate is observable.3.4 Dual-Rail Combinational Circuit DesignThe design process for NCL combinational circuits is similar to Boolean circuits, where aKarnaugh map, or other simplification technique, can be utilized to determine the simplifiedsum-of-product (SOP) expressions for each output. However, SOP expressions for both thefunction’s 1 and 0 outputs are needed. The 0s refer to a signal’s rail0 and the 1s refer to a signal’srail1. After the expressions for the outputs have been obtained, an assessment must be made toensure that the circuit is input-complete, as discussed in Section 3.2. If not, the missing input(s)must be added to the appropriate product term(s). The output equations must then be

general (e.g. high interest rates, inflation, volatility of exchange rates, etc.) will have a negative effect on innovation and technology diffusion. Compared to alternative business strategies, other factors reduce the attractiveness and feasibility of innovation: a financial sector unable to assess innovative projects, weak protection of intellectual property which reduces the rewards for creativity, regulations which increase risks and costs of commercialization of innovative products or processes, etc.”4) Innovation increasingly relies on effective interaction between the engineering base in industry and directed scientific research at universities. “Innovation results from complex interactions between research, design

We also identified (but did not analyze) courseswith a humanistic focus that make an explicit connection to engineering, science, or technology,including but not limited to science, technology, and society (STS) courses. The basic approachof our study was to construct a preliminary set of themes based on the mission and visionstatements, determine the prevalence of those themes in each institution, and assess the extent towhich the curricular requirements of each school correlated with those themes. 5Results: Pervasive Themes in the Mission Statements of the Eleven Schools in Our StudyEight pervasive themes

Recruitment workshops and resources emphasize the importance of careful – i.e.,thoughtful, informed and not hasty – evaluation, interviewing, and selection of candidates fortenure-track faculty positions. Specifically, workshops and resources encourage searchcommittees, search chairs and department chairs to, for example: make ample time to meet andmake decisions about hiring; recruit from a high-quality, diverse pool of candidates; fairlyevaluate those candidates (e.g., using rubrics to guide this assessment); and use best practices ininterview techniques (e.g., learning what can and cannot be asked).
