Developed, in part, inresponse to the lag in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) performance [3] inthe United States and the need to compete for fast-growing, higher-wage, STEM-basedemployment [4], the effort seeks to contribute to the stabilization and rebuilding of post-industrial regions by attracting, developing, and retaining a skilled workforce. As such, it can bepart of bridging the divide between those people and communities who can engage in theknowledge-based economy and those who cannot.Funded through a National Science Foundation Improving Undergraduate STEM Education(NSF IUSE) grant and held by the

score.IntroductionThe Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET)1 Engineering Criteria 2000requires engineering students should “be able to function effectively in a multidisciplinary team”.The question is: how can students’ team skills be taught and assessed2,3,4? In a previous study,we defined student’s team skills through a three-construct theoretical model: interdependency,goal setting and potency. This model entails possible application in both pedagogy andassessment. Peer evaluation has been used as an effective instrumentation tool to assess students’team skills and performance5,6,7,8,9. We developed a 9-item peer evaluation questionnaire tomeasure student’s individual perceptions on their teammates along our three-constructstheoretical

Individuals with ADHD make up a growing fraction of college students.Despite their increasing college presence, little is known about their college experiences andacademic success. This project involves three sequential studies guided by the social model ofdisability. Study 1 is a quantitative analysis investigating the relationship between pre-collegefactors, college experiences, and academic success of college students with ADHD.
