Their ratings of the importance ofeffective and innovative teaching in the reward system were still lower—3.7 and 3.5,respectively. Significant differences in ratings were found by gender, primary academic function(teaching, teaching/research, and administration), involvement in SUCCEED, rank, and CarnegieFoundation classification of the institutions. All significant changes from 1997 to 1999 were inthe negative direction. Our conclusion is that while SUCCEED’s faculty development effortshave had noteworthy positive effects in changing faculty instructional practices, much

The engineeringeducation literature provides many examples of this type of learning through “hands-on”or “learning-by-doing” projects. In fact many schools have introduced innovative“hands-on” activities and hardware into their freshman courses4-11, their sophomorecourses in mechanics12-20 and thermodynamics21-27 as well as in other engineeringcourses28-35, “non-majors” courses36, 37 and high school courses38-40.We introduced a sophomore design course, including a semester-long, team design, buildand test

Real options only work for tradable assets. A common objection to options analysis was that it does not work when the underlying asset is not a tradable commodity. 4. Real options discount management realities. Critics said that because real options do not expire like financial options do, managers can not be counted on to abandon a project when they should.Block27 surveyed 1,000 companies to see if they had adopted real options.
