graduate studentsenrolled in mathematics and computer science were international students [1]. Moreover, thenumber of international students, both at graduate and undergraduate levels, has been increasingannually since 1950 with few exceptions [2]. Besides contributing to the ongoing research and development work at the universities,adding to the cultural diversity on campuses, and contributing to university’s finances throughtuition and other fees, international graduate students play an important role in the undergraduateeducation at US universities by serving as teaching assistants (TAs), especially in STEMdisciplines [3]. These international teaching assistants (ITAs) serve as laboratory assistants,graders for assignments, and

He has been a sessional instructor at the Schulich School of Engineering at the University of Calgary, where he completed his MSc. in engineering researching engineering education. His roots in industry aided him in the development of curriculum for 3 new courses by aligning industry’s desired competencies for new grads with accreditation criteria and facility constraints. The result was applied education: practical learning activities and hands-on labs that prepared students for the real world and accelerated their time-to-competency once on the job.

MIT’s mens et manus (mind and hand) motto and more recent Mind, Hand and Heart wellness program. Makerspaces can be viewed as social worlds with varying degrees of newcomers and old-timers who are engaged in continually shifting relations through their everyday practice ofdesigning and making. Traditional pedagogy is less common in academic makerspaces than inother academic spaces. The norms and practices more closely exemplify Lave and Wegner’sdescription of learning: Learning itself is an improvised practice: A learning curriculum unfolds in opportunities for engagement in practice. It is not specified as a set of dictates for proper practice. […] In apprenticeship, opportunities for learning are, more often than not

thebreakdown of the tasks and subtasks as well as through the information sharing between the tasks.Recalling the earlier definition of design as stated by Gerson (2004), coordination involves bothconnecting two items while also keeping them distinct. Thus, the DKC model should incorporate a levelof distinction between design tasks while also recognizing the interdependent pieces that are required tocontinue toward the workflow. This level of distinction can be maintained by viewing the aircraft as adiscipline-centric system. In creating curriculum for aerospace engineering design, the aircraft is dividedinto disciplines and courses are structured to teach material from within the disciplinary boundary.

They compared expert and novice readers with a goal of improvingcomprehension. They noted expert readers:  Made connections between new and prior information.  Learned to distinguish important from less important ideas in the text.  Were able to synthesize information within and across texts.  Asked questions of themselves and the authors as they read.  Made inferences during and after reading.Brown, Roediger, and McDaniel [5] concurred with these characteristics, noting these types ofactivities

this idea can be found by comparing the statisticson the number of bachelor’s and Master’s degrees awarded in civil engineering (Table 1based on ASEE data, [40]). This ratio has averaged 41% over the previous 10 years(comparing the number of Master’s degrees awarded in civil engineering to the number ofBachelor’s degrees awarded two years prior). By comparison, the average percentage inchemical engineering is 23% (although many students go straight to a PhD), mechanical is32%, and electrical plus electrical/computing has increased from 64% in 2007/08 to 95%in 2015/16 [41].
