Students were required to post all 14deliverables on Interactive Learning and Collaboration Environment (InterLACE). For the purposes of this study, only two deliverables were examined: list of user needs and list of product specifications (including materials). Page 26.705.5
science content and processes compared to lessons that address similar learning objectives but do not include EiE’s hypothesized “critical components” (see below)?In designing the EiE curriculum, we adhered to key critical components that we believe areessential for optimal learning by all students. Critical components include that:(a) engineering content is introduced in a context(b) students learn about and use the engineering design process(c) engineering challenges specify a challenge and constraints and permit many possible solutions(d) children use math and science to design solutions(e) children use failure constructively and design iteratively(f) students work collaboratively.These critical components are congruent with the
each learning objective, permitting that learning objective to bemeasured by direct assessment. The points scored per question were converted to a percentagescale and then to an “A” through “F” scale, using the traditional grade assignments. Table 5shows the breakdown of letter grades received for each exam question. The equivalent classGPA is shown for each question, based on a 4.0 scale.Direct assessment provides the most accurate measure of a student’s knowledge in a givencourse. In this course, about 50% of students were able to have a grade of “A”. The other 50%are subdivided between “B” and “C”. Some students were not able to answer the questionssuccessfully, obtaining grades of “F
enact the five PLC conceptions shown in Table 1, we decided that ourservices should (a) help both faculty members and their students to develop an understanding ofhow learning happens, in order to enable alignment and promote the development of self-regulated learners; (b) help faculty members to collect and use appropriate information todevelop a better understanding of how their students were experiencing their courses; (c) helpfaculty members to utilize more contextualized understanding of their courses and students in thedevelopment of classroom activities that build alignment and promote better learning; (d)provide opportunities for students to experience the positive effects of their assessment feedbackon their own learning, and with

The treated watercould then be put into additional “clean” jerry cans for subsequent disinfection. (a) (b) (c) Figure 2. (a) Conceptual image of a

For ex-ample, a > b and b < a produce the same true-false result, but their AST representations are dif-ferent. In the C3STEM units, the modeling language for each is sufficiently targeted to the do-main that we can easily construct a canonical form of the models in the AST representation.Hence, a TED of 0 means that the model is behaviorally similar to the expert model; a decreasein TED means that an incorrect block was removed or a correct block was added to its correct lo-cation in the model; while an increase in TED could point to an incorrect block being added, acorrect block being removed, a block that belongs in

Excerpt from An Alternative Approach to Teaching Waves Matter has mass All matter is made of atoms. Atoms can combine to form elements, which in turn can combine to form molecules such as H2O, which in turn can combine to form different substances, such as ice, water, and steam. Each atom is itself made up of different combinations of subatomic particles - protons, neutrons, and electrons. Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. Even subatomic particles such as the proton and electron have some mass (approximately 1.67 × 10-27 kg and 9.11 × 10
