what type of intervention(s) you would recommend.Our preliminary findings indicate a strong grounding in collaboration for all teams andindividuals; strong evidence of empathy among some (but not all) teams and individuals; andvarying degrees of learning that integrates the humanities and engineering. We summarize ourfindings below.Collaboration: All teams and individuals appeared to be engaged. Individuals seemed to haveroughly equal contributions in terms of time on task and specific contributions. All teamsdemonstrated appropriate teamwork. People listened to each other, responded to each otherappropriately, and seemed to value others’ contributions. There was little or no domination byany single person or pair of persons, no
the faculty and the impression(s) arrived at by the author, leads oneto believe that it is highly unlikely that new more effective teaching-learning strategieswould be deployed any time soon, unless drastic measures are undertaken. The author ismore convinced now than ever, that classroom reformation, including deployment of activelearning strategies, would happen only if the institution mandates it!The Pros and Cons of the Lecture FormatWhen asked why he/she lectures, one faculty responded: “It is a tradition. It was part of mytraining, and seems to dwell in me and seems like what I should be doing. I feel guilty when Iam not lecturing” (13). This candid statement suggests one of the great dilemmas faced by allwho teach at the postsecondary

The students who brought up other issues in their assignmentswere given individual feedback that addressed their content of their homework more directly.IV. QualityOne of our concerns was that students would take advantage of the mass-grading and turn in poorquality work weekly. To combat this, the TAs would first hand-grade the assignments, so theycould monitor the quality of student work

fromthose that were based on leadership as a process [13]. The former is based on traditional notionsof a leader as an individual with power and authority based on their position within anorganization or society. It was exactly this notion of leadership that was associated with theresistance encountered in our earlier studies. The latter, leadership as a process, has beenarticulated by many scholars, but we chose to use Northouse’s simple definition of leadership as“a process whereby an individual influences a group of individuals to achieve a common goal”(p.3) [13]. We also use Rottmann et al.’s orientations to engineering leadership: Technicalmastery - “shar[ing] their technical problem solving skills with others through informalmentorship” (p. 7

At one meeting, theengineering leadership debuted a new voice activated software program that would give verbalcommands to the forklift operator as s/he completed tasks. This was particularly designed tosolve the problems of pallet composition. As one engineer explained, simply providing operatorswith a list of products to be placed on each pallet had left them with too much control, and theoperators had begun to assemble

This approach is coupled with the AskNature.org website,which is a public database of biological information organized by a biomimicry taxonomy [37].The cognitive process of this approach is divided into the steps of scoping, discovering, creating,and evaluating (Fig. 2), and is structured around the search for particular biological insights tosolve a given problem. Scoping involves specifying the problem to be solved with operatingconditions, the functions that must be performed, and which life’s principles the design willincorporate. Discovering involves identifying biological systems that have evolved strategies tosolve the defined function(s) followed by abstracting those strategies into possible designprinciples. This step is often

The discussions were extensive in the discourse of the non-mentored professor; however, these were not part of a classroom experience design based on the critical reflection of the instructor, as it was the case for the mentored professor. TG students had access to computers to use GeoGebra to work individually and collectively. In contrast, in the CG, students had no access to computers, and although some accessed through their smartphones, most of the times was the instructor the only one using GeoGebra to make explanations to the students, while they listened passively.It is evident the positive impact that the redesign of the learning activities had on the learningenvironment from the perspective of the student´s particular
following two questions: First, how did EC2000 affect the learning outcomes ofABET-accredited students? Second, what impact did EC2000 have on organizational policiesand practices, educational policies and practices that helped improve student learningoutcomes? A large amount of evidence collected in the research showed that theimplementation of the EC2000 had a positive impact on engineering programs, studentexperience, and student learning.In response to the enthusiastic attention of the China’s government and society to the qualityassurance in engineering education s, the Higher Education Teaching Evaluation Center ofthe Ministry of Education, together with the Beijing University of Aeronautics andAstronautics, and Tsinghua University, have

increase in the engagementratings for each of the four different presentation formats associated with the percentage of livewebinars a had student participated in. That means an increase in webinar participation wasassociated with an increase in their engagement ratings. Framed in the negative perspective,there was a decrease in the engagement ratings associated with a decrease in the number ofwebinars a student participated in. This study cannot deduce a causative relationship betweenwhether a student was disengaged because they did not (or could not) participate in a livewebinar, or did whether they chose to not participate in a live webinar because they weregenerally a disengaged learner, or if it was due to some other causal factor(s) (Lumgair
