Remember the Titans iscurrently used in this workshop because it brings together all the TDLC skills. An informaldiscussion follows that focuses on successful teams, and more importantly why they weresuccessful. Following this informal discussion the teams conduct an assessment of their EggDrop Exercise, see Appendix B. The assessment process includes individual reflection andgroup discussion on the team’s success and areas of improvement in terms of teamwork, designprocess, and communications.

Of these, two crests simulated a bad verticaldesign (Figure 2 a, b) while a third one simulated a decent vertical design. The worst verticaldesign had the steepest grades and the shortest length, while the decent design had a smootherdeparting grade and a longer curve length of the three.After students completed the first drive using the driving simulator, they completed an entrysurvey related to both their experience and their perception

The engineering sciences havetheir roots in mathematics and basic sciences but carry knowledge further toward creativeapplication. These studies provide a bridge between mathematics and basic sciences on the onehand and engineering practice on the other. Engineering design is the process of devising asystem, component, or process to meet desired needs. It is a decision-making process (ofteniterative), in which the basic sciences, mathematics, and the engineering sciences are applied toconvert resources optimally to meet these stated needs.(c) a

This would eliminate any redundancy between the courses and allow greater depth of some topics in MC300.Complete syllabi for each of these options were developed with outlines of proposed new contentand draft concepts for new learning activities. Using this information, the four options plus a “donothing” option of keeping the courses as currently taught were compared using the followingcriteria: ● Screening Criteria a. Inputs.

We assigned values of1= No, 2= Maybe, and 3= Yes to the survey question answers and analyzed the average scoresfor each question between the two groups (A/B in pre-requisite course vs. C or below in pre-requisite course). A t-test was used to test for statistical significance. The results (Figure 5)showed that students who came into the class with a C or below felt that the tiered mentoringproject gave them more expertise (p = .02) and more confidence (p = .01) in the topics theyworked on, compared to students who came into the class with As or Bs.
