her parents favored women’s rights and her mother was a staunch suffragist andfriend of Susan B. Anthony. Ms. Gleason studied mechanical arts at Cornell University and atMechanics Institute, now known as the Rochester Institute of Technology. Shortly thereafter, shejoined her father at his factory - Gleason Works. Kate Gleason promoted his business, whichbecame one of the leading sellers of machine tools in the United States and Europe largely due toher efforts.“Kate Gleason's place in American history is ironic. The accomplishment she is most oftencredited with, the invention of the gear planer, was her father's. Henry Ford mistakenlyattributed the invention to her, the press picked it up and it stuck. That overshadows her reallegacy: using

If one wishes students to "think outside the box",it is perhaps not advantageous to locate them in a box.(b) first year studio The first year curriculum is common to all programs. Some 600 students are currentlyregistered each year. Since the introduction of Integrated Learning, all take a course, APSC 100,which includes a team-based design project component. The course may draw on any portions ofthe year one material in each project, and often requires the student to learn new material on theirown. A few lectures are included at the beginning on teamwork issues. The nature of projects currently undertaken is limited by the facilities available. The first yearstudios in the ILC are intended to relieve this restriction

theperspective or details that have been revealed, can be thought of as acceptable, or academicallydishonest. These cases have the greatest variety in rationale behind them, but generally centerupon what “acceptable” collaboration is. For instance, we ran into many cases where groups ofstudents had very similar code. Upon speaking to parties involved, the following story mightevolve: - Student A and B worked together closely, but have clearly different submissions via comments and style, and report each other as collaborators. - Student C, in a panic, asks Student B for help after Student B submitted their project. Their submission is very similar to Student B, and thus Student A, but they do not report working with Student A

The same instructor taught both the blended instructionand the traditional face-to-face lecture. The focus of this study was twofold: a) determinepotential negative impact of the blended format, and b) identify the major predictors of finalperformance in this course. A one-way ANOVA analysis indicated no statistically significantdifferences in final course score between the control and the treatment groups. The analysis of aproposed path analysis model showed that self-efficacy, perceived engagement and perceiveddifficulty are significant predictors of students’ final performance in

(Hint: The internal energy given to the aluminum cylinder by turning the crank is determined by measuring the temperature change of the aluminum cylinder.) 2. Does the amount of shaft work performed always equal the amount of heat absorbed by the cylinder? Include your explanation. 3.
