, the projects themselves serve as the curriculum, where students encounter and learn central concepts via the project. • Driving question: PBL presents open-ended questions and ill-structured problems that “drive” students to engaging with underlying concepts. • Constructive investigation: the main activities of the project should cause students to construct new understandings and skills. If students can complete most of the project activities by applying prior understandings and skills, the project is not PBL. • Student-driven: PBL projects are student-driven vs. teacher-directed. Students are given less supervision, greater responsibility, and more autonomy to determine a project's solution
undergraduate curriculum. As a result, the course had a significantfraction of molecular content that was poorly covered by existing textbooks. This content had tobe covered exclusively in lecture, created an ongoing tension between use of class time forcontent delivery versus working interactively with students. A second factor was thestewardship of the course. Most of our core courses have a 3-4 year instructor turnover, and aretaught by research-active faculty who do not conduct education research as a scholarly activity.Thus the activation barrier to flipping a class is prohibitive for most of our faculty. However, inthis particular instance, the course had been taught by a single instructor (the author of thispaper) for more than 3 years using a

In most countries, universities generate a division between the two disciplinesboth physically and in the curriculum [8]. The Universidad San Francisco de Quito(USFQ), a private liberal arts university in the city of Quito - Ecuador, is not anexception to the generation of this gap, so to quantitatively analyze the culture in thesestudent groups a study was conducted by applying the theory of cultural dimensions ofHofstede, where the questionnaires proposed by Sharma [17] were used, to collectrelevant information of the culture in these two branches of construction in Ecuador

If you look at the history of this company, um, the origins were in a relatively narrow but important field within mechanical and electrical engineering. It's called control systems. Control systems in an academic sense has a very narrowly defined, uh, context and it's defined by mathematics somewhat by computing and some experimentation and so on and so forth.
