They attributed the mixed effects in Florida (reducedSAT scores but improved high school class ranks) and negative effects in Louisiana (reducedSAT scores and high school class ranks) to changing and less rigorous scholarship requirements.Prior studies have examined how college costs and financial aid affect first-time student patternsuch as the fraction of in-state students, socioeconomic status, and student quality. However,little is known about how financial factors affect the cohort pattern in engineering fields. Ourstudy is unique in that we study

Additionally, many graduate students, especially younger ones, canexperience impostor syndrome.18 It is crucial that the faculty member is aware of these issues toassist in TA development. We suggest instituting course policies that assign difficult decisions tothe faculty member. However, involving TAs in the decision-making process improves theirconfidence and promotes their development as teachers.TrainingTrain TAs in effective teaching techniques both on the job and through formal pedagogycoursework. First, we consider the opportunities you have to serve as a role model to the TAssimply through teaching the class.

classroom culture and department vision. For the new adjuncts to feel athome and become effective members of the university community, they need to understand themission, prevailing practices, and goals; and, also, the traits of student population such as:scores, interests, capabilities, and a wide range of relevant statistics. To improve the teachingeffectiveness of novice adjuncts, they need to be exposed to pedagogical training in the form ofspecialized seminars, workshops, or short courses. Many adjuncts, particularly part-timers, mayresist getting any formal training on the ground that their time is limited and their primary job isoff-campus and not teaching. The administration may not be able to convince all, but the factremains that exposure

The process of constructive alignmentwill provide a better understanding of the current practices in engineering entrepreneurshipeducation and bring clarity to the diverse approaches used in pedagogy. By developing astandardized framework, educators and funders will be better equipped to evaluate and comparedifferent programs, ultimately leading to improved outcomes for both students and educators.Keywords:Entrepreneurship, Innovation, Canadian Education, Program Design, Constructive Alignment1.

PerformanceLearning Environments (Hi-PeLE) often leads to a need for assessment techniques different than those oftraditional lecture based courses.The Hi-PeLE characteristics described above bring a challenge for the facilitator of learning in identifyingan effective assessment approach with a goal of maximizing student learning. Certainly, traditional “mid-terms” for the traditional based delivered courses are not the most efficient for Hi-PeLE activities.Instead, the facilitator of learning may want to take advantages of the multi-dimensional nature of the Hi-PeLE and use a variety of tools to assess student learning and progress. In order to make the most of thelearning experience for the student, each type of activity requires a unique type of

. Page 22.1341.1 c American Society for Engineering Education, 2011 Student teams, a simulation or a real team experience?AbstractThe tradition in engineering education places students in teams during their senior year; likely aspart of a capstone laboratory or design course. In most cases teams were done on a “pick yourown partners” basis. Furthermore, no time was spent discussing teamwork, the importance ofteams, how teams should be structured or the skill set one needs to be an effective team member.To some extent, changes made by ABET to their accreditation criteria in 2000 have forced theengineering community to at least assess student teamwork. This, in turn, has motivated many totake a

is usually developed over time through determination,personal effort, and years of practice, and teaching is no different! It is a skill that canbe acquired and improved with the right information, practice, and correctivemeasures through proper feedback (9, 10) .An increasing number of engineeringeducators are sharing valuable approaches, strategies, and techniques on teaching andlearning. Characteristics such as “enthusiasm”, “care”, and “knowledge of subjectmatter” show up almost on everyone’s list of the qualities of a good teacher. But, it is becoming increasingly clear that effective teachers do possess some basicunderstanding of the learning process (i.e., they are able to make the connectionsbetween what students already know and

(Rashid, 2019).While both high school and university level courses tend to aim at some of the same knowledgeand skills, the curricula often do not speak to each other; and there are not intentional designchoices to create a pipeline. This is a missed opportunity. Many different versions of “pipelines” have been created, in other areas, between highschools and universities. For example, dual credit programs aim to allow high school students totake university-level courses (with university sourced curriculum) while in high school. Dualcredit programs have proven successful in increasing the numbers of students who are ready for,enter, and are retained by tertiary institutions (Bowers, 2016; Allan and Dadgar, 2012).

Allof these improvements were implemented by constructing and using ACTS. As a result of ourmost recent ABET visit, the department decided to revise course outcomes to directly correspondto ABET a-k.
