used to evaluate each individual milestone.A high weighting factor was assigned to “Degree of Completion” to encourage the team to stayon track and not let the project fall behind schedule. This milestone system added structure tothe project and increased timeliness, but the instructors were confronted with an unanticipatedside effect. If a milestone was completed poorly, and the student(s) received an appropriatelylow grade, there was no motivation to fix the problematic issues. Later, another student wouldneed to put in extra work to compensate for the first weak performance. A corrective action wasnecessary to hold the original student responsible for completing the task without letting the teamfall behind. In the year following the

The statistics lab was more of an “experience” than a lab, and was done using jellybeans rather than a chocolate product (so that all the students could eat the candy at theend and avoid food allergy issues). After a lesson on population statistics and some Excelbasics (focused on statistics and graphing), each team was provided a bag of jelly beansfrom the same company. Teams were to compare their number of each type (flavor) ofjelly bean to the total number as well as the results for all of the teams in the class. Asurvey of the student’s favorite flavor was also done to compare to see if the mostpopular flavor (s) were the most prevalent in the population.

either individually or in groups. When appropriate, the TAwould attempt to form study groups for students to work together. When the students were stumped,they could ask questions and receive help from the staff.The course material was divided into seventeen units. Each unit summarized the key concepts,background math and methods required to solve the problems, and about ten to fifteen physicsproblems to solve. Often reading assignments were also included on these units in addition to beingposted on the course website.Students were free to work through the unit(s) at their own pace and solve as many problems as theyfelt necessary. There was no requirement of completing these for a grade like the LRE. When astudent felt prepared to demonstrate
, including a strong corporate sponsor, international host university and one or more partnering US institutions. It also outlines benefits to each partner in engaging in this type of partnership, and recommendations to other institutions wanting to design a similar program. Findings from the study can be used to inform curriculum and design of future international experiences for engineering students. Partnerships between universities and industry have long been important for schools ofengineering. In the U.S., growth in university-industry partnerships began in earnest in the1980’s due in part to changes in national technology policies which sought to promotecooperative research and increase diffusion of technologies

Within thewriting pedagogy community, the advantages and disadvantages of explicit instruction have longbeen debated, with critics of direct instruction arguing that it "prevent[s] our students fromenacting what they know tacitly."14 However, in our experience, few students have any tacitknowledge of engineering workplace genres. If they are given an assignment that asks for anunfamiliar document type – such as a technical memorandum or a cover letter – they typicallysearch the internet for something with the same name. Rather than leaving them to search ontheir own, we believe it is appropriate for engineering courses to teach students about industrystandards for documents, just as it is appropriate to teach about standards for

the need for student accountabilitymeasures to be part of the flipped classroom design. Students and faculty are used to that modelof instruction and there is evidence that a more behaviorist approach to the online content is acomponent of the flipped classroom model.4 More research and development of the flippedclassroom model is needed to determine the most effective methods and theoretical framework(s)from which to best design and implement the flipped classroom instructional model in highereducation.Conclusion It is clear that the flipped classroom instructional model is being used in engineeringgraphics education at the university level. The extent of its use and how the model isoperationalized across the field is not clear. This

For those students who cannot getthe problem from their company, the instructors can help find the external sponsors. Inthe event external sponsors are not available, the students will be working on their owntopic of interest. However, such topics have to be approved by the advising faculty beforestudents begin the work. During residency week, on day 1 (Monday), in the morning, the students will begin thesession by learning the business research process. In this session, they learn how they cantranslate a management dilemma to an executable research question(s). The afternoonsession covers literature review and referencing styles. Since many
