In this paper we shall report on the currentformat of the course and how it overcomes many of the problems with our initial offering.Although only part way through the second offering, we recognize the need for new changes inorder to account for the increased maturity and experience of the students returning from their16-month internship experience. The changes needed to handle the 80% of our students who willreturn from internship in September 1999 are discussed.1.

The IFAT system has been used in many classrooms and been shown toreduce student anxiety in high-pressure testing situations [14].However, IFAT forms and truly immediate feedback’s impact on student learning is called intoquestion based on research in the cognitive sciences. Recent work shows that immediate feedbackmay not be helpful in long-term retention. In an online quiz, simply altering the delay betweenbetween entering a response and viewing the correct answer by four to twelve seconds was foundto improve long term retention when compared to

withstudents across all majors and faculty working together from business, engineering technology,and liberal arts. Co-learning is an approach that allows students to work together in diversegroups and gives both high and low ability learners across various subjects the opportunity tolearn from each other (Sultan, Hussain, & Kanwal, 2020). On the other hand, co-teaching is acollaborative model of teaching wherein two or more instructors work together to teach the samecourse. A strong correlation has been found between the perceptions of collaborative teachingand the motivation for student achievement (Anwar, Asari, Husniah, & Asmara, 2021),providing insight into the potential effectiveness of this method of teaching.

Good learning, like good work, is collaborative and social, not competitive, and isolated. Working with others often increases involvement in learning. Sharing one's ideas and responding to others' reactions sharpens thinking and deepens understanding. Examples:The instructor... • Provides discussion prompts that help to guide and elicit student participation in class discussion activities. • Facilitates class discussions by encouraging, probing, questioning, summarizing, etc. • Has students work on problems in teams

Looking tothe future, industry will play an even larger role in university research efforts but competition forsuch partnerships will increase. To build successful industry alliances, universities shouldcarefully evaluate their IP policy, employ contracts that are clear and set appropriateexpectations, and focus on the value of the relationship as a whole as opposed to just a fundingsource for a one time project.Bibliographyi National Science Foundation, Science and Engineering Indicators, 2010.

Therefore, CBE should be used as a supplement to traditional instruction and notas a replacement8. In this investigation, we will determine how a computer-based system canmonitor student engagement in a manner comparable to that of real classroom teachers.II.
