In the area of computer science, TEApassed rules in 2016 that allowed Computer Science to fulfill the foreign language requirementin High School. This policy freed up space in the high school curriculum for students to enroll incomputer science. There was a significant increase in the number of computer science adoptionsafter this policy went into effect.Table 3 provides summary statistics for PLTW adopting school district characteristics and thoseof non-PLTW school districts. A series of independent samples t-tests were calculated toinvestigate general differences in between these two samples. It was found that adopting districtsare much larger in terms of enrollment size

colleagues. Unfortunately, at many schools, theemphasis on drawing skills has focused on computer aided drafting and design (CADD), at theexpense of hand sketching. The result is unsatisfactory and sloppy sketching by civilengineering and civil engineering technology students and graduates. Although manyengineering drawing courses no longer emphasize hand sketching, engineering educators can stillprovide opportunities for students to develop and practice hand sketching skills. This paperpresents suggestions for incorporating hand sketching assignments in the undergraduate civilengineering technology curriculum and provides assessment results for several sketchingexercises used by the author.IntroductionHand-drawn sketches have traditionally been an

In2003, the university adopted a track system with the FYE foundational courses separated intothree tracks: Track A (aerospace, agricultural, biomedical, civil, industrial, mechanical, andnuclear engineering), Track B (computer and electrical engineering), and Track C (chemical andpetroleum engineering). Track A was primarily project-based and used Mindstorms, Legos,magnetic balls, and beams to build structures. Track B focused on circuit design and computerprogramming. Only Track C maintained the FC curriculum until 2013. The target population ofthis study is first-time-in-college (FTIC) chemical or petroleum engineering students who startedin
