Specifically, this module includes activities about implicit bias, stereotypethreat, and cross cultural competence. Student response has largely been positive, and studentreflection assignments have demonstrated critical thinking on the matter. As this is a recent pilotintervention, long-term longitudinal effects have yet to be investigated. Included here aredescriptions of the module activities, generalized student responses, and instructor perspective.While this topic is of great importance to all educators, it is often difficult to incorporate suchmaterial in well

In conclusion, since equal is notalways fair, instructors must make their expectations exceptionally clear to ensure that anystudent can succeed and earn an “A.” I believe it is time for educators to polish their teachingphilosophy, create appealing visual models, and share them with their students.IntroductionDeveloping a Teaching Philosophy Statement (TPS) is central in any academic career [1].

The survey findingsshowed that students were most frequently “active or very active” in laboratory groups andinformal study groups and least frequently active in study abroad programs, activities sponsoredby the home college, and women/minority organizations (Table 3). More frequent and activeparticipation in lab groups and informal study groups reflects overall the emphasis and prioritythat engineering students place on their studies,19 while on the other end of the spectrum, theinfrequent participation in study abroad programs is consistent with generally low participationin such programs by engineers nationally,20 and may also be a result

unfortunate realities14. Although the 3 large fundamental engineering courses in this study pose a different set ofissues, which often implies that quality teaching is not possible in large classes, researchers ineducation10,42,54,75 suggested the contrary –quality teaching is quite possible in large classes whilefocusing on student-centered, cooperative, active experimentation, and high-level thinkinglearning, instead of the traditional teacher-centered, individual, reflective observation, androutine-drill learning. Almost 2 decades ago, Felder23 had recommended the need to change the pedagogy usedin engineering classrooms. According to his study at that time, many engineering classes in1999 were taught in exactly the same way that

Perhaps planning is the first and most critical of the skills. It is the initial phase of preparation for any project. Most jobs and assignments can be considered as a project that need to be managed including teaching a course, running a committee, writing a research proposal or preparing curriculum. Planning involves every aspect of developing a project including a schedule or timetable right up until the actual work begins.

Rather, the perspective atNSF is that they are funding things in the national good [5]. Since it is not possible tosupport all high-quality research, priorities need to be established.
