In this study, we reflecton our experiences as supervising faculty, and the results of pre- and post-experience surveys completedby four groups of undergraduate researchers. In contrast to previous years’ REUs, team interactions werenot possible in the virtual environment, and activities were mainly training programs. Students were ableto work with previously collected real data and write code. The participants’ final presentations weretechnically better than those in the previous two years.

. Because of the large number of concentrations withinMDE, it is difficult and perhaps impossible to write a single performance objective for the MDEprogram. Thus, objective II is phrased as meeting “one or more of the following milestones.”For objectives II.2 and II.5 we will count degrees, certificates, and so forth. For objectives II.1,II.3 and II.4 we have carefully defined terms and will use them to determine if the objectiveshave been satisfied. The performance target is that 75% of graduates will satisfy Objective II. Aplan was developed to determine if graduates are meeting the program objectives listed in Table4. Because MDE had only one graduate at the time of the ABET visit and will not have a largenumber of graduates before the next

of the experience.A new trend in education is to implement a peer-to-peer learning network wherein informationand lecture materials are distributed in real-time to each participant during the lecture. Mostoften, this format is tailored to the use of presentations created in PowerPoint or similarpackages. The primary difference between this technology and those mentioned previously isthat there is no need for the students to transcribe the information being presented as it isautomatically saved on their PCs. One of these packages is Silicon Chalk.3. Silicon Chalk:Silicon Chalk is a software package that allows real-time streaming of lecture materials from theinstructor’s PC to students’ computers.
