At the end of the semester, students make a formal presentation and submit a writtenreport to their sponsors.Benefits of Service LearningThere have been many papers written on the benefits of service learning. Specifically to theenvironmental field, the EPA Service Learning Document1 gives the following benefits ofservice learning: • Encourages students to learn and develop through active participation in thoughtfully organized service that is conducted in, and meets the needs of, a community • Helps to foster civic responsibility

Both workshops grew out of discussions between SIAM and NSFEducation and Human Resources representatives early in 2011 on the topics of undergraduate and K-12courses and programs, college readiness and career preparation.The main themes of the second workshop, aptly titled, ‘Modeling across the Curriculum II,’ MaC II,investigated ways to increase mathematical modeling across undergraduate curricula

Calls have been made for transformation in curriculum, bothfundamental and finite although these changes garner limited returns on investment.This project was created to provide a positive association with the declared major, civil engineering, and tocreate a lasting impression to get through the

Based on U.S. data from a variety of sources, thepercentage of bachelor’s degrees in engineering that were awarded to women has been fairlyconstant at about 20-21% from 1999 through 2004 (see Figure 1)2,3,4,5.

pose a rather largechallenge. Engaging unprepared students requires a multifaceted approach tailored to theirunique needs. One effective method is the incorporation of active learning strategies, whichpromote student engagement through collaboration and participation in the learning process.Research has shown that techniques such as think-pair-share, problem-based learning, andinteractive group activities can significantly enhance understanding and retention of materialamong underprepared students [14, 15]. Additionally, providing structured support, such assupplemental instruction and peer mentoring, can foster a more inclusive learning environmentand empower students to take ownership of their learning [16,17].

They understand when you put a pot of water on the stoveand heat it…it warms up. This example grounds Q = mC∆T and is the fundamental way thatheat interacts with solids and liquids. If students do not grasp this, it is impossible to describeother methods of how heat interacts with matter. Using extra time to teach this and assess it, isvital to moving on.
