Krause is professor in the Materials Science Program in the Fulton School of Engineering at Arizona State University. He teaches in the areas of introductory materials engineering, polymers and composites, and capstone design. His research interests include evaluating conceptual knowledge, mis- conceptions and technologies to promote conceptual change. He has co-developed a Materials Concept Inventory and a Chemistry Concept Inventory for assessing conceptual knowledge and change for intro- ductory materials science and chemistry classes. He is currently conducting research on NSF projects in two areas. One is studying how strategies of engagement and feedback with support from internet tools and resources affect

Part of this problem related to the issue of students who took APCalculus believing they were well prepared for college calculus, whether or not that was trulythe case11. On the other hand, the 3-week course left little outside time for students to reviewand practice concepts and skills during the program or to have more time to processinformation that might be new to them. The limited results currently available indicate thatstudents in the 3-week course raise MPE scores more than the students in the 6-week course.However, grades in engineering calculus I were statistically significantly higher for studentsin the 6-week course.
