Team effectiveness is measured by: (a) ateam climate survey, (b) the evaluation of project products (a design report and a poster or anoral presentation followed by a defense), and (c) focus groups with first-year instructors.IntroductionIn 1996, the fourth-year Project Management in Practice (PMP) course was created as an electivein the Chemical Engineering program at the University Rovira i Virgili (Tarragona, Spain). Thecreation of this course responded to two needs although, actually, one of them was much morecompelling than the other.

Privacy had been of great concern as the signals were originally broadcast over theshared medium sans encryption. The Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption algorithm wasintroduced to overcome the initial privacy issues.

Smith et al. [11] state that there is awide variation in the collaborative learning activities, but they must be centered on the students’ ex-ploration or application of the material. Collaborative learning promotes several education goals,including: involvement - students participate more in their learning, interact with other studentsand interact with the teachers; cooperation and teamwork - students recognize different views andwork together to build consensus to resolve these differences; and civic responsibility

Humans possess a unique capacity to alter theirsurroundings, creating objects and systems imbued with meanings beyond their naturalfunctions. Early hominins may have conceptualized relational frameworks and folk notions oftime, space, and force through observing nature, contributing—through embodied activity—tothe development of symbolic systems such as storytelling and to causal reasoning about theproperties and functions of materials like sticks, stones, fire, and water [41]. Here, storytelling isseen as an early technology—an object—of emotional and communal survival. These earlyinsights may have laid the cognitive groundwork for psychological understanding and

] [20].In ENGR 101, we feel that the rubrics help us stay focused on the learning goals and purpose ofthe assignment and not get lost in peripheral elements. For example, during the first two years ofassigning technical memos we did not use an analytic rubric, but instead let instructors choosehow to evaluate the submissions. After a few semesters using this method, we realized that wehad inadvertently been focusing too much on sentence structure, grammar, and spelling in ourevaluation, and the technical understanding had become undervalued. This prompted us todevelop an analytic rubric that still had us provide assessment about writing mechanics, butrefocused the bulk of the assessment on the students’ achievement of the technical learning

Adding a new road lane brings new drivers, and over time (typicallywithin five years) leads to more traffic, more pollution, and contributes to a reduction incommunity quality of life [3], [4]. Similarly, viewing energy efficient building materials inisolation to how they perform within a system may lead to less than optimal solutions. Forinstance, windows with a low U-value typically cost more but produce less heat transfer, whichcan equate to reduction in HVAC loads, leading to a net positive benefit for both financialinvestors and the environment.Unfortunately, civil engineering practice still too frequently ignores these dynamicrelationships between system components.

Analternative round-about technique to obtain realistic flows without refining mesh close to theground is to use the standard wall functions [7]. However, Verma et. al.

Thus, in this work, wall functions are usedin the wall boundary faces to capture steep velocity gradients near the walls.1.7.
