For the rest of us,learning to be a good teacher can be an awkward, sometimes frustrating, process of trial and error that isoftentimes unsatisfactory to both the fledgling instructor and to the students. To overcome these limitations,individuals who are preparing for careers as elementary or secondary education instructors are required tocomplete a program of study that includes a core of professional education and methodology courses, as wellas a supervised teaching practicum

attempt toreform engineering education, seven institutions formed the Foundation Coalition (FC) withsupport from the National Science Foundation. One method utilized by the FC member schoolswas to offer integrated freshman programs. Embedded within this curricular reform were studentlearning outcomes that were established in the FC’s strategic plan and were implemented andmeasured across selected subject areas. Student learning outcomes were defined by theFoundation Coalition as “the abilities that we must develop, continuously improve and use inorder to realize the overall mission and vision of the Coalition.”The Foundation Coalition (FC) at Arizona State University (ASU) has incorporated strategiesinto its curriculum to: a) reform engineering
digital components and technologies. Thefocus of the exercises may be readily adjusted to reflect questions and/or discussions from theclassroom to further emphasize key concepts. For this paper, two assignments will be discussed:photo-electric sensor with attached filter, and digital-to-analog converter (DAC).The learning objectives for these laboratory exercises include:• Understanding the operation of operational amplifiers, LEDs, and photo-resistor devices• Developing an ability to design and analyze electrical circuits Page 8.76.2• Assembling components on a breadboard; probe test points using bench tools to validate
found on a museum panel for instance, could actually inform the reader ofa fairly complicated idea (the continuum of 3D form) in a very succinct manner.Thus the strategy of the survey was to first have the respondent identify his or her field ofstudy. Then the survey showed five somewhat similar images. We decided to use onlynon-habitable tall slender towers as our forms. The reasoning was that we needed tocontrol variability as much as possible and not introduce a wide range of structures.After viewing the five forms, the respondent was asked to categorize them as sculptural,architectural or structural form, but to do so without any guidance or prompting from thesurvey. Then, a brief educational panel of material presented the previously

The transition from graduate student to new faculty is truly a challenging one.Finding students (like you used to be) is an essential step, and then mentoring them towardsfulfillment for both you and them is a learning process. New faculty accustomed to doing it allthemselves often have a hard time handing project ownership over to students.During this talk, we will encourage an open discussion to provide feedback on specific issuesthat new faculty may have run into. While many of the points made in this paper seem likecommon sense, challenge yourself to see if you are following common sense on an everydaybasis. It is easy to
