Learning IssuesI believe strongly that the best way for students to learn engineering is for them to solve correctlya great many problems. The use of ALN teaching/learning techniques in general, or the use of Page 3.11.4Mallard™ in particular, provides the following advantages over more traditional classroom andpaper-and-pencil teaching/learning (in rough rank order):1) Typically each student has a different set of numerical values within the problem statement.Thus, students can help each other with the solution approach and are not

If students are making errors in their code, they are informed of those errorsand given an opportunity to fix it without penalizing. Students liked this approach since they couldput effort and get an opportunity to earn points even if they may mistake in the first attempt. Also,they would get instant feedback rather than waiting for a week when they would forget about whatcode they wrote.Survey Results The new method of lab assessment was carried out with CS1 and CS2 students for a period of twosemesters.

Using Bandura's agency framework [1], we find the new approach has been successful ineliminating the barriers that graduate students previously faced in the initial creation of the IDP.After changes to the course activities, students were more likely to exhibit self-reflection aspectsof agency and discuss their goals, rather than merely evaluating course activities as isolatedtasks. Our data shows students adopting the IDP as a career planning tool with indications thatsome students have transitioned from thinking of IDP as a product to

IntroductionIn recent years, the need to expand instruction beyond the traditional classroom has led to therapid growth of supplemental teaching methods such as videotaped lectures, classes via satellitebroadcast, and Internet delivery of lectures. In particular, the World Wide Web is receivinggrowing attention as a preferred medium for asynchronous delivery of course materials and pre-recorded lectures to remote students. Universities throughout the country are developing courses(and entire curriculums) specifically for Web presentation.However, the development of Web-based classes can be hampered by limitations of time andeconomics. Many instructors take a “presentation-style” approach to
