Figure 17 - An excerpt from the concept map used to develop the workshop in Case Study #2The final step in the planning phase involves determining the physical layout of concepts on thepage. This can be accomplished by blocking out specific areas on each page, effectivelyreserving them for particular topics, while referring to the chronological list of topics to ensurethey are in the correct order. Because the chronological list also contains hierarchical importanceinformation, the instructor should use it to determine the relative sizes of each topic box.Different applications of skeleton notes require

between quantitative responses and the textual data provided by the open-endedquestions, demonstrating the efficacy of both the analytical approach (i.e., TDA) and open-endedquestions. Jackson and Trochim 12 also developed a novel approach to analyzing the content ofopen-ended responses. Using text-sorting algorithms, the authors developed conceptually distinctclusters of responses and sorted them to create concept maps, demonstrating links andrelationships between perceptions of workplace team norms and respondent profile. In general,TDA and other quantitizing approaches can provide correlations or describe conceptualrelationships, but the assumptions associated with frequency counts comes with its ownmethodological issues.

A concept map of the seminar activities, showing our four-pronged approach to support the four WGCD statements, is shown in Figure 3.Figure 3. Environmental Engineering Seminar Activities mapped to WGCD 3—LifelongLearning.The Environmental Engineering faculty developed the seminar to be as student-centric aspossible. It was purposefully designed for students to achieve short term goals that will enhancedevelopment of engineering skills and be structured around activities that are similar to tasks thatjunior Army officers often complete. Table 1 displays the linkages between the course activitiesand the higher objectives they satisfy. For example, the

.23, engagement behaviors can be categorized into one of the four modes:passive, active, constructive, and interactive; and out of these four modes, students’ learningincreases when they are more engaged in course materials, from passive to active to constructiveto interactive. Examples of passive learning include listening to a lecture; reading a book; andobserving a video; etc.24. While active learning means students are actively manipulating coursematerials, for example, they write summaries of the text; take verbatim notes; copy solutions toexample problems; pause, play, fast-forward, or rewind a tape; etc.24. Characteristics ofconstructive activities include new ideas being generated from outputs such as a concept map, areflection report

Ideally, theproject was designed to conduct a beta-test after the completion of the first phase of the project,the design of the complete curriculum structure and implementation of all lessons into theplatform. With the constraints on time to be able to complete the entire first phase, thedevelopment of the content for the complete course was not possible. Therefore, we conductedthe beta-test with the material that was ready to be tested. While the terminology “beta-test”implies trial of the product in the final stages of development, we

A design goal such as, “Can you devise a way to trap a wolf using simple machines?” provides a challenge, dares the students to test their skills and their knowledge, and sees if they can design a prototype of a trap that fulfills all the requirements. Accompanying each challenge are exercises including concept-mapping, journaling through theuse of “design notebooks,” and oral reporting – designed to help students construct their personalmeanings.Table 3.
