While the team-building exercise was successful, the students need to be challenged immediately. We did thisby introducing challenging problems where the correct solution may not have beenimmediately apparent early in the course. Team Dynamics While many teams worked well together, there were some problems. In some cases thestudents worked these out on their own. One student on a weak team proceeded to move towork with a neighboring team and eventually changed teams. In another case, after someprodding by the instructors, a

Common violations of the law of the teacher include an attempt by the teacher to bluff his/her lesson,assuming the students are “ignorant” of the material; assuming that it is the students, alone, who must study thematerial, and not the teacher; to scan the lesson in preparation for the class, then assume that even though notthoroughly mastered enough is known to “fill the period,” perhaps supplementing with random talk about a petresearch project; and failing to find personal stimulation in the lesson.III.

. Astudent’s grade in a course is ideally a measure of proficiency in the subject matter, andan indicator for attainment of defined learning outcomes. The final grade is typically acomposite of grades given during the semester for homework, quizzes, tests, laboratoryassignments, projects and a final examination. Although the weight given to eachcomponent varies by course and instructor, engineering homework at the University ofthe Pacific usually accounts for 10 to 30 percent of the course grade. Faculty assign arelatively high weight to homework to provide meaningful incentive for students tocomplete assignments. A lower weight may lead to students considering trade-offsbetween spending time on either homework or other responsibilities. Considering

It should be noted thatalthough the module surveys are not anonymous, the identities of the students are notrevealed to their peers. The non-anonymity is important to ensure that students in need ofindividual help can be identified by the instructor.Different assessment methods are available in the literature for measuring studentlearning, 1, 2, 3, 10, 11, 12, 13 and these can be divided into direct (or formal) and indirectassessment methods.

In the course of teaching the history of technology for twenty years, I have noticedthat students generally associate technological change with economic change—newproducts and processes are expected to enrich individuals, give companies a competitiveadvantage, and allow nations to prosper. Students are also aware that nations pursuetechnological innovation in order to gain a military advantage. But for the most part,students do not give much thought to how people use technology to achieve political
