ExCEEd Teaching ModelDue to the fact that a majority of instruction is still conducted face-to-face and the qualityvaries greatly, many teaching workshops have been developed to meet the cry of faculty,administrators, and students looking to improve teaching and student learning.

Some of the more successfuland well known workshops supported by educational research are Richard Felder’sworkshops (12 hits) and the ASCE ExCEEd Teaching Workshop (135 hits). It appearsthat most of the remaining hits are teaching workshops being offered at local universitiesand colleges as part of their internal teaching development programs.

In this way both disciplines paycareful attention to the kinds of metaphors used to describe both queerness and disability. Beingcritical of discourses about diversity and inclusion, as well as descriptive language of queer anddisability opens new possibilities for access. McRuer further argues that we must resistconceptions of disability as tolerance that merely reinforces able bodied heterosexual privilege,and instead conceive of meaningful access for both queer and disabled people.Within ASEE there has been far more research on disability than queer or LGBT topics.Searching ASEE proceedings for “disability” turns up over 800

The examination includes thecomparison of the behavior of these properties along isotherms and isentropic lines forsubcritical temperatures and pressures ranging from saturation to five times critical pressures.The results provide valuable insight to initiate a more accurate approximation of internal energyand enthalpy in the compressed liquid region.The current approximation of internal energy and enthalpy along isotherms are achieved throughthe

As indicated, this provokes an increase in the distortion and thesituation is unstable, leading to a cellular, forced convection in the liquid. The samephenomenon may take place in a cholesteric liquid crystal with negative dielectric anisotropy.
