maintained through thesemester. The faculty in the courses are each responsible for applying the rubrics for their ownprojects and reports. Only the oral (or video) presentation rubric is currently used by multiplepeople to evaluate the same group submission.Rubrics are used in general to clarify expectations for students, and to help identify specificallywhere students can improve in their work. There are two core elements of a rubric: criteria andstandards [1]. The criteria are the features or characteristics that are evaluated, and the standardsare identifiable levels of quality. Stevens and Levi [2] provide considerable detail in rubricconstruction. Most of their examples result in rubrics with four to six criteria, usually scoredacross three
integrated with currently used instructional techniques inDigital Systems courses. The prototype was designed, developed, and tested on students enrolledin Digital Systems courses.The prototype includes a 3D and a 2D environment. The 3D environment provides a game worldin which the player, using a first person view, navigates through a series of obstacles. The 2Ddigital circuit design module provides learning exercises that teach sum-of-products logic designconcepts with truth tables. A preliminary study of the 2D digital circuit design module wasperformed in December 2007. Both a usability study and a pilot test of the full prototype wereperformed in April 2008. The purpose of the studies was to get feedback from students onvarious features and

Review of evidence-based pedagogical methodologiesTeaching is an art of encouraging students to become active learners and awakening theirenthusiasm to life-long learning. On the other hand, learning is a dynamic process in which boththe teacher and students should actively participate, exchange views, and ask/answer questions inan engaging atmosphere [3]. It has been abundantly demonstrated that pedagogical methods thatpromote conceptual understanding through interactive engagement of students are far moreeffective than traditional didactic instructional methods.

IntroductionEngineering students in different majors spend most of their time taking courses within their ownprogram/department in addition to common body of knowledge (CBK) courses such as Math,Physics, and
or course, what are the common individual courses and combinations of courses required? How frequently is the initial computer programming course dictated by a uniform engineering school requirement, and how often is it specific to the BME department? How many credit hours are devoted to computer programming courses, and when are courses taken during a student’s program? How many programs have BME courses that focus on modeling and simulation of biomedical systems beyond programming, and how many credit hours do these represent? If a university wishes to cover many types of computing in its curriculum, are there good examples of how this might be done? The terminology for

total 180 participants (7 - face-to-face, 4- online, and 48-remote) chose to respond. Through a comparative approach (as seen in Table IV), analysis was conducted bydesignating codes from the individual responses in each course modality group. Emergent ideaswere allowed to develop and grow in meaning and proceed to a collective response. Ideas andconcepts that were shared by multiple participants were coded into themes and pursued to thepoint of saturation. Face-to-Face (F2F): No single response was duplicated by any of the respondents. Theselearners responded mostly negatively with responses regarding the additional study time, lack ofmotivation, loss of grades, a decrease in writing quality, and increased rigor. Also mentioned

In March of 2020, thisuniversity migrated away from face-to-face teaching, like other institutions, in response to theCOVID-19 pandemic. This migration resulted in the development of synchronous (remote) andasynchronous (fully online) courses that were offered to students through the remaining Spring andalso the Summer semester of 2020.

General Criteria that wouldinhibit the exploration of emerging areas within an accredited degree program.ASCE’s draft Advanced level General Criteria are as follows: Advanced Level Programs must develop, publish, and periodically review educational objectives and program outcomes. The program must demonstrate that graduates attain, through their educational and professional experiences, knowledge and skills consistent with fulfillment of the basic level general criteria and applicable program criteria (if any). Advanced level programs must consist of at least one academic year of study beyond the basic level. Graduates must have a culminating engineering experience demonstrating advanced level program
