However, many smaller collegesand universities without such centers struggle to provide pedagogical development for theirfaculty due to a lack of knowledge about best practices or the centralized guidance and staff acenter can provide.

Opinions vary as to the significance of the rising GPAs, howeverthe fact remains that more students are receiving grades that are higher than those given in yearspast.

that quality work is delivered to the partners.Many a times, industry shies away from these partnerships because they do not see a clearbenefit for them or because they do not believe students can deliver a good quality project.

Thisapproach enables the A.R.I.S.E. Center to be a pseudo-consulting Center.Students from underrepresented groups who had a GPA of 3.0 out 4.0 were identified and a letterof invitation was sent.

The theoretical basis for the LCI is the Interactive LearningModel, which posits that learning processes occur through four distinct learning patterns:sequential, precise, technical, and confluent. The LCI was used to profile the learningstyle of each student in the Rowan Chemical Engineering department. During the fall2003 semester, teams of students reviewed their LCI profiles with faculty, wrote teamcharters and used biweekly written status reports to reflect on their progress throughoutthe semester. These activities were intended to further each student’s awareness ofhis
