Approval of all protocols for human subject research was granted bythe Central Department of Energy Institutional Review Board under application DOE000938.For this study, we collected data in one-on-one open-ended interviews with seven professors.Participants represented a blend of Research 1 or Research 2 institutions, though interviewrequests were sent to professors from all institutional classifications. Over 40% of intervieweeswere in their second or third year of the competition, whereas the remainder were eitherparticipating for the first time or had participated

techniques to protect internet servers and provide security toonline education from such threats.1. IntroductionFor a millennium, universities have been considered the main societal hub for knowledge andlearning. However, over the last several decades, the basic structures of how universities produceand disseminate knowledge and evaluate students have shifted in a new direction due to societalchanges created by technology—computers, internet, instant messaging, e-mail, Facebook, andtweeter. The transmission of knowledge need no longer be tethered to a college campus. Thetechnical affordances of cloud-based computing, digital textbooks, mobile connectivity, high-quality streaming video, and “just-in-time” information gathering have pushed vast

For the first session, students were askedto generate solutions to a design problem individually and to provide words and sketches todescribe their concepts. After this first ideation session, students were asked to generate ideas fora new problem in a two-person (or three-person) team; however, they were asked to record theirideas separately on their individual worksheets. For each idea generated in the team session,students were also asked to indicate which person from the team first verbalized each idea, aswell as how much each person contributed to the idea’s generation and development.Four

The 5-credit course has been project-based where students in the sameteams (4-5 members) for the entire semester develop a process design, including all required unitoperations, equipment sizing, and energy requirements, and an economic evaluation of the finaldesign. In a typical semester, the design problem prompts are generated by the course technicalinstructors, and are not repeated semester to semester.
