Intervention students wereasked to list the activities they completed during shadowing. Common tasks (company tour,hands-on experience, reflection with co-op) were provided in a selection list and students couldinclude details about additional activities in an open-ended text box. Students were asked to ratehow they felt about the shadowing experience and how they felt about their interactions withtheir mentor (the shadowed employee). A text box was also provided for them to share othercomments about the shadowing experience.Shadowed employees were asked to list the activities completed during

. All three factors reflect studentcompetence with the course material, and the course grade thus provides a measure of overallstudent performance in the course.The decision to use course grades as a measure of student performance was followed by adecision to exclude failing (F) grades while making pre and post OER comparisons of studentperformance. F grades are commonly received by students facing personal problems; theyappear semi randomly in some terms, and inclusion of these grades can skew class GPA whenthe number of students is small. Figure 3 shows the grade distributions of the 35 pre-OER and38 post-OER students: the x axis lists each letter grade and the corresponding grade point. Thefigure shows that the post-OER group earned a higher

In our study, we focus on the aspect of empathy research concernedwith the ability of people to consider how their decisions affect others.Service learning (S-L) is a well-studied approach to teaching and learning [11]–[16]. It is one ofseveral pedagogies for engaging students in learning. In this study, by service learning we meana learning environment where students are taking a course for credit, serving a community aspart of the course and reflecting on their experience also as a component of the course [12], [17].S-L has been identified as a helpful pedagogy for

This E-Portfolio provides users of remote labs with theability to record the work they performed and document their findings. The concept of thisportfolio does not stop at being a simple digital notebook, however. The study asserts that thisportfolio can be used by professors to check on students’ work or be opened to the public inorder to add a social dynamic.

The majority of the 3-Dvisualization exercises currently being used by students in Design and Graphics classes presentthe objects in isometric views already in 3-D, asking the viewer to create multiple views, foldpatterns, manipulate, reflect, or rotate them. Other exercises present the objects in incompletemulti-view projections and ask the students to add missing lines. The newly proposed methoduses a different approach.
