Determine as a functionof θ the normal and the frictional forces which are exerted by the ledge on the rod at A as it fallsdownward. At what angle θ does the rod begin to slip if the coefficient of static friction at A is μ?

-changes cases. The final project is an extensivereport on a fictitious experiment the students have designed and supposedlyexecuted. The idea is not to have them execute the experiment, but write effectivelyabout it. Grading is done without the grader knowing whether the student is from aclass where these changes were implemented or not. The assessment was doneusing six criteria that include: (a) document structure (b) objectives and conclusion,(c) grammar and spelling, (d) quality of writing, (e) depth of analysis and (f)scientific integrity. The results obtained show increases of 8% for categories (a),(c) and (d) , 14% for category (b), 7% for category (f) and a decrease of 3% forcategory (e). These results suggest that the changes implemented

Measurement isdescribing the test results in an interpretable manner. Are you going to measure by points on atest, score on a rubric, what? Evaluation is making a decision or judgment about themeasurement or score. Does the student get an A or B? Did the student perform the behaviorwell enough or not? Ideally, the PI gives the teacher and student information about how the PI isevaluated and what it takes to pass or get a certain score for that PI.How to TeachHow to teach what you intend to teach can be understood, organized, performed, and evaluatedvia PIs. In essence, teaching entails the following. 1

The resultsshowed that 36% of students who took the physics prerequisite (electricity and magnetism) atSJSU for introduction to circuit and received a B grade (B+, B, B-) failed the course –comparethis with 15% of students who took the physics prerequisite at a community college.

This course alsoincludes regular individual meetings with students to discuss their written and oralcommunication performance, during which some students recognize their susceptibility tostereotyped communication behaviors for a particular aspect of their identity (e.g., gender).Open SceneOpen Scene is a common exercise in theatre in which two actors are given a short, context-freescript.

on theengineering profession in the years to come. Engineering faculty in the Arab GulfRegion, and the young in particular, need to expand their technical knowledge anddevelop new competencies to further their technical professional development andkeep up with modern approaches to teaching and learning. This paper explores waysto effective professional development of Region’s engineering educators to enablethem to assume the roles they are entrusted with. The purpose here is to offer a newway to think about the development of the professional engineering educator. In thisrespect, the paper focuses on:(i) the cognitive processes that faculty would follow asthey grow and learn more about teaching and learning,(ii) the discipline
