It comes loaded with several pre-designednetwork layouts to choose. However, users can also create their own networks and labs. Usersare empowered to build, test and preview any type of network and environment they want. Thisfeature allows learners to experience how to connect different types of hardware interfaces suchas Fast Ethernet and Serial Interfaces. Figure 2 shows an example of a

First, in the LA Pedagogy Seminar, LAs receivepedagogical development in in a formal class with their peers, generally in their first term as anLA. Second, LAs meet weekly with the instructor and the graduate teaching assistants as amember of the instructional team to prepare for active learning in class that week.

Through thorough analysis, we explain how these constraints map accurately to thereality of various educational processes, such as the way students learn and their interaction withfaculty. In particular, the case of MB-NCS with Intermittent Feedback becomes especiallyrelevant.[5] We provide an in-depth explanation of this

As an undergraduate student, healong with several fellow students struggled with a lack of understanding in a requiredcourse in numerical and computational methods (NCM). Despite the fact that heobtained a good grade in this course, he did not retain or fully grasp much of theinformation taught in this course. He eventually learned computational methods whileworking at research laboratories and by doing some personal research on mathematicalmodeling. Thus, he is motivated to explore the literature on the topic of numerical andcomputational methods in engineering and computing education, which cansubsequently help to broaden the understanding of these methods and ensure that futurestudents have a better experience

From personal experience, it is embarrassing to discover a typographical error in one ofyour published papers. Next, submit the paper ON TIME! The deadline could be set by a "callfor papers," or on a schedule originally agreed upon by the co-authors. If a target date is not set,the paper may not be written due to higher priorities.

In essence, active learning requires doing meaningful learning activities in groups underthe guidance of an informed and experienced teacher. As stated by Christensen et al (1991), “Toteach is to engage students in learning.” The main point is that engaging students in learning isprincipally the responsibility of the teacher, who becomes less an imparter of knowledge andmore a designer and a facilitator of learning experiences and opportunities. In other words, thereal challenge in college teaching today is not covering
