The AI class consisted of two sections, the DL class of one. Eachsection had close to 40 students enrolled. For the collaboration, teams consisted of 2-6 students.Students could select their own teams, and teams could choose their own topics subject toapproval by the respective instructor. The instructors provided a common list of suggested topicsfor both classes; about half of the teams chose topics from that list. The lab portion of thecollaboration spanned the entirety of the academic term (a quarter with ten weeks of instruction).In the first week

Comparison and DiscussionThe comparison of the two virtual tools is organized in three main sub-sections (1) symptoms,(2) technical feedback, (3) pedagogical feedback. Both tools are discussed in each sub-sectionproviding a comparison of their performance, value, and limitations in surveying education.4.1 SymptomsThe two virtual experiences use different platforms for the implementation. While game-basedimplementations are Web-based, and students are familiar with working on the browser, theimmersive virtual reality uses an HMD and controllers. Students in the latter case are spatiallyimmersed into the experience
education system.This paper looks across three qualitative studies during the work-based experiences (WBEs) ofeleven undergraduate computer engineering and information technology systems students fromgroups traditionally underrepresented in STEM. In this paper, WBEs are defined as paidengagements for students as they work on solving real-world problems, while performing tasksand projects in partnership with an employer or community partner. Three types of WBEs arerepresented: internships (Study 1), apprenticeships (Study 2), and company employees (Study 3).All three studies used the Socio-Technical Integration Research (STIR) methodology which hasbeen established in 80 studies worldwide and over a dozen peer-reviewed publications.

Before the experiment, students completed a questionnaire about CT and a pre-testover course knowledge to reduce internal validity threats of students remembering pre-testquestions. The first two sessions covered the history of the internet and how the internetworks. The last two sessions were a combination of theoretical instruction, such as HTML,web servers, web 2.0 technologies, and hands-on activities, such as students learning how toconnect and communicate with the Linux server to build basic websites. During the last weekof this research, students were asked to develop a website using what they learned aboutbasic HTML

Besidesindependent research, the teachers have brainstorming sessions with teachers of the same field, tocollaborate and exchange innovative ideas. In addition, teachers are invited to visit ORBIT testbedat Rutgers/WINLAB to present their findings and receive feedback from the consortium (seeFigure 3). The outcomes of this phase are the development of NGSS-aligned lesson plans thatbridge the gap between wireless technology research and core STEM-subject area concepts.

undergraduates can acquire during one term of entry-level materials testing lab courses from three schools.1. IntroductionLab reports are the most common genre assigned in engineering courses. They are consideredeffective pedagogical tools to prepare students to write successfully as engineers because theyrequire students to exhibit, in their writing, basic professional forms, characteristics, andconventions associated with engineering literacy [1-3]. Through the lab reports, engineeringundergraduates need to communicate the results of scientific inquiry (related to ABET Outcome6) in a manner that the technical audience comprehends, and from which the technical audiencecan draw useful conclusions (related to ABET Outcomes 3 and 6). Before entering their

Studies have shown that students who participate in REUs show increasedinterest in pursuing degrees and careers in the STEM fields [3]. REUs provide students withopportunities to develop skills valued by both graduate schools and employers, such as workingon challenging problems, presenting research to an audience, and communicating findingsthrough technical writing [3].While REUs have the potential to positively influence persistence in STEM fields, there areinequities in who gets to participate in these experiences. Questions have been raised as to whysome REU programs receive very few applications from students in

In the follow-up survey, 70 percent (42 out of 60) responded somewhat, helpful, or very helpful. Again, themost prevalent answer was helpful.

Students also completed a small research project on ahistorical civil engineering project. The course was restructured in the fall of 2020 to includemore content focused on oral communication skills and a more in-depth design project. Therevised content schedule included 1) one week for an introduction to civil engineering, 2) oneweek on the engineering design process (and Imagineering Process), 3) six weeks ofintroductions to the civil engineering sub-disciplines, 4) one week for individual projectpresentations, 5) one week for the introduction to SketchUp, and 6) five weeks devoted to theconceptual design project.

To achieve this, SPECTRA will create cohorts of students at two community/technicalcolleges (Spartanburg Community College and Trident Technical College) and then support that cohort asthey transitioned together into Clemson University [5]. This cohort would then be mentored in how tonavigate Clemson University’s academic environment, utilizing available programming such as academictutoring, field trips to see local engineering companies, etc. A unique component of the SPECTRAprogram is the requirement that scholarship recipients at Clemson University enroll in two semesters ofresearch

points in database design. Database design knowledgeis technical as well as practical. Many skills are required including problem-solving, critical think-ing, creativity, communication, team working, and time management. Traditionally, expositionallectures or closed and hands-on laboratories are used to teach database design. Exams are usuallyused to evaluate knowledge and skills required in the database design process. In the rest of thisarticle, we refer to such methods as traditional methods. Unfortunately, despite their wide use,traditional methods are found to be ineffective for teaching and learning the abstract and complexdomain of database design [2, 3]. While existing teaching methods for design learning providesome clues, there is no

Students were prompted to complete their diary entries within oneweek after the class session to ensure accurate recollection of their instructor’s teaching methodsfor that week. For the diary prompts, students were asked to respond to three open-ended questions (i.e.,general writing prompt): (1) describe the most important things you learned in class this week,including what you learned about yourself. Why does it feel important? (2) what was mostinteresting to you about the course this week? What was least interesting? (e.g., class topic,homework assignment, class activity).

implies both a temporal dimension, in which organizations are improving all thetime, and a spatial dimension, in which organizations are improving all of their departments,units or divisions. In order to accomplish CI, Deming proposes utilizing the Plan-Do-Check-Act(PDCA) cycle for improvement at any stage [2]. PDCA is a 4-step cycle that repeatscontinuously through which organizations create a plan, execute it, review the results, and finallymake any corrective action before starting again.While Deming’s work was mainly directed towards business, academia took notice. The terms“Continuous Improvement” and “Total Quality Management” started to show up in highereducation research papers by the late 1980’s and early 1990’s [3]. CI then found its
