Theadaptation calls for a shift in emphasis from traditional discipline-specific to multidisciplinarydomains to retain competitive edge of US in innovation through STEM education and researchfor the new century. Multidisciplinary education and research is viewed as a means to revitalizeSTEM education providing real-world, hands-on research experiences to students for betterrecruitment, retention, progression and graduation4-9.

To begin with theobserver report, I would like to point out some advantages of Dr. X’s teaching performance.Positive teaching performance: + The instructor can communicate with the students before the class and wait for the students who did not show up in the class. + The objectives of this class were very clear at the beginning of the course. + The instructor can always interact with the students and ask questions to engage the students in the lecture. + The pace of the lecture is

His primary research focuses on the design and development of educational technologies that can facilitate different aspects (e.g., engagement) of the students’ learning and provide an engaging experience for the students. Further, he is interested in designing instructional interventions and exploring their relationship with different aspects of first-year engineering (FYE) students’ learning (e.g., motivation and learning strategies).

IntroductionThe first programming course, commonly called CS1 (Computer Science 1), is a recurrentresearch topic in the literature, with at least 50 years of study [1] and more than a thousandarticles on the subject [2]. Subjects covered in this topic range from forms of assessment toteaching techniques, as well as student engagement and behavior [2,3]. Among the topicsstudied, the high failure rate in this discipline appears as a difficulty in universitiesworldwide [4]. Other papers on CS1 present challenges in teaching the first programmingsubject [5, 6, 7].Many undergraduate majors have CS1 as a mandatory course in their curricula.

about engineering.The Impact of Images Images are a powerful form of communication, thus exploring and understandingimages has important theoretical and practical implications. Humans create images inorder to make sense of their everyday experiences [10]. A commonly accepted image canbecome metaphorical, equating one concept with another, such as “nerd” and “engineer”.Once these images become part of a generally accepted vocabulary of popular culture,they transcend their origins. While images always maintain some connection to people, places, things, or events, their generative potential in a sense gives them a life of their own, so that we not only create images, but are also shaped by them.

In the two sections that the course hasbeen offered so far, six students (out of 39 enrolled in the courses) have achieved output voltagesgreater than 1.0 volts. This is truly impressive performance, and required significant time anddedication. In addition, the project has had a positive effect on exam performance related togenerator theory and design.

might be to replace a statement like “capture cue ball” with “capture theclosest ball.” By simplifying their original script, participants typically earned a sub-optimalscore. A better solution is to reorganize the script so that the maximum number of points, basedon remaining balls, can be earned.Strategy games such as Robo-Billiards can help to engage students in activities that are fun andsupport STEM concepts. As observed in the student behaviors, the most successful results occurwhen a clear and defined plan (algorithm) is used to form the necessary script. Even in the faceof a fault, it is the ability to adapt to the new circumstances that allowed further success. Therobot’s design likewise impacts the potential STEM learning
