examples of faculty reflection making a difference in instruction because this self- reflection explicitly recognizes that the faculty are integral components of the system [6-8]. After spending some time writing down their experiences we asked the faculty to share with the small groups at their table. The conversation was animated and meaningful, and many participants came to realize how their own experiences shaped their expectation towards the students. b. Better Understand Our Students Using Yosso’s Model This activity started with a table conversation about the learning characteristics of our students. Not surprisingly, a majority of the discussions was focused on the lack of preparedness of the students

that, withinthe science and engineering disciplines, there may exist differences in the perception ofinstructor behaviors that influence rapport depending on a) program of study, b) year of study,and c) gender. Therefore, the specific goals of this research project are to answer the followingresearch questions: 1) What are the top quartile behaviors that establish positive rapport betweenengineering professors and engineering students; 2) Are there preferential differences for facultybehaviors between a) different engineering programs, b) the different years of studentprogression, or c) male and female students?Existing studies in the engineering classroom noted the importance of faculty interactions but fallshort of identifying if there are

The observation form and self-reflection sheet used are available in Appendix B andAppendix C respectively.Collection of Early Student FeedbackProgram participants collect informal early feedback from their students as a way to improvetheir instruction before the semester is over. The early feedback is reviewed with program staffduring the observation process. New faculty are not provided a single form to utilize for earlyfeedback, but the rationale and example feedback forms are covered in one of the weeklyseminars. Faculty then create their own form based on
