The intent of the assignment was to encourage groupdiscussion outside of class that would result in a cohesive presentation of the primary topic, takinginto account various perspectives.For this specific assignment, 24 students enrolled in a junior-level project management course werebroken into four groups of six. Each of the four groups was assigned one of the four topics:management, business, public policy, and leadership. The students were required to prepare apresentation to give to their peers in the class. Each member of the team was responsible for aspecific portion of the presentation with the specific, individual assignments listed below

Two days before the project was due, students were required to (a) give a “minute-madness” presentation to the class on their results and (b) bring a draft of their report to class for peer review.5. The group then submitted the final report two days later, after making revisions based on the peer review. In addition, individual group members submitted a written reflection on their learning through the project process.Description, Observation and ReflectionIn the next two sections, we further describe these two cases.

These campus-wide programs, alongwith engineering-specific programs, are usually available to faculty members and graduatestudents in engineering. Possible structures of these programs can be workshops, courses, andseminar series; consulting, mentoring, and partnering arrangements’ learning communities; andteaching certification programs [6]. Other professional development activities for teachingimprovement include reading literature, or writing an article or chapter on teaching, learning orassessment, and attending an engineering education conference [7].

Moreover, have students examine their design solutions vis-à-vis criteria and constraints, assess design trade-offs, and perform design refinement. 7. Engaging in argument from evidence: Have students engage with one-another in exchange of their explanations of a scientific phenomenon or design solution while gracefully accepting peer feedback. Such an interaction, where arguments are based on evidence and strengthened through peer feedback, can enable students to identify superior

, in mathematical modeling activities, the kind of detail infeedback that offers a better learning experience is still not well understood16. The prerequisitefor understanding the nature of effective feedback is to understand how students perceive andrespond to various types of feedback they are provided. The feedback TAs and peers provide andthe way students respond to it when revising their solutions capture important data aboutstudents’ thinking processes. In the literature, these thinking processes have been revealedmostly through an analysis of documented works, such as written feedback and studentsolutions15,17. However, such approaches do not reveal the whole story of students’ interactionswith feedback. The purpose of this study is to

Thisprocess enables students to examine their progress, assess the evolution of the mathematicalmodel, and reflect about the model.

requirement of full-time status (12+ credits in fall/spring) became problematic for students whoneeded fewer than 12 credits in their last semester to graduate. Other students had scheduling challenges(e.g., 15 credits in one semester but 11 in the other), that threatened their eligibility. In Flit-GAP, after thefirst semester, the requirement for full-time status is interpreted to allow for these cases in which studentsare making progress toward graduation but cannot register for 12 credits in a particular semester .Common Program ActivitiesFlit-GAP provides positive, peer group cohorts for junior, senior, and eventually graduate-level students.Student development and support activities combine social and educational events to help these
