The instructor can download an attendance spreadsheet from the common team at the start of the lab period and later complete an icon checkoff within each team’s private channel shortly after large group dismissal—both for attendance purposes and to quickly assess whether any temporary team reassignments are needed due to absences.3.

,“How can we teach innovation?” Duval-Couetil and Dyrenfurth [8] analyzed eight dedicatedinnovation programs, some of which focused directly on engineering students. They identifiednine distinct categories of program-level learning objectives, including (1) creativity, (2)problem solving, (3) context/environment, (4) communication, (5) innovation process, (6)interdisciplinary team skills, (7) professional and preparation, (8) leadership, and (9) experientiallearning. While these objectives were largely variable, the programs evidenced many commontheories, approaches, methods, and tools for enhancing innovation. In brief, this suggests that“teaching innovation” is a multi-faceted endeavor. Even more, it suggests that an explicit focuson

. government sciences and technology programs have been dominated by two overriding concerns: basic research and support for specific national missions, such as national security and health. Largely as a result of this concentrated federal effort, American science has enjoyed an era of unprecedented excellence … In many ways, the federal government has failed to adapt its policies to the new, market-driven model of innovation. Considerable evidence suggests that America is failing to commercialize the kinds and quality of technology that the market demands.”8) U.S. industry must rebuild its in-house innovative engineering capacity and its leadership capacity to stimulate technological innovation to sustain economic competitiveness for

This effort was initiated by the principal investigator within the Engineering programat East Carolina University in the spring semester of 2014. The program’s core mechanics ofmaterials class is at the epicenter of the effort. It is a required course for all students in the program,and it is the first engineering course in the typical sequence requiring rigorous formal laboratoryreports. At the outset, casting a fine net for plagiarism of all sorts brought many students into theacademic integrity process who were not accustomed to being considered cheaters. In

Simulations and virtual tours let your students see and try things thatare too small, too far away, too expensive, or too dangerous to experience physically. However,undergraduates will rarely think deeply about a simulation or virtual tour if they are just sent to“try it”. It is important to decide what you want students to learn from the tour or simulation, Page 10.910.5then guide them to and assess that learning objective by

Other workshops are more rigorousand include data-reduction, graphing, analysis, and design activities. Good teamwork andcommunication are essential elements in the workshops.

However, the mean difference is very small (3.14 for population, 3.20 for total sample),and statistical significance was likely impacted by the large sample size. One-sample t-testswere also used to determine if each of the groups was significantly different to the wholepopulation, in terms of GPA. The GPA for Group A was significantly different from that of thepopulation, but the GPAs for groups B and C were not.
