Then poses a question, such as a multiple-choice question, and asks the students to raise their hand if the think ‘a’ is the correct answer. Then the same for ‘b’ and so on. If a large percentage of the class answers incorrectly then the instructor asks the students who answered correctly to turn to their neighbor and explain or convince them of the correct answer. An easy solution is for the instructor to allow any student that does not feel prepared to not answer without penalty or singling them out. This way the learning- disabled students

the unique experiences that women faculty face as a gender minority in academicengineering programs. By situating this study within the context of three selective doctoral grantinginstitutions, this study was unique in that it uncovered how institutional processes and programs directlyinfluenced the success of women faculty in engineering. Although women at all three universities facedsimilar challenges including gender bias, work/family conflict, and the “two-body problem,” interviewees’perceptions of the effectiveness of the policies and programs differed significantly by site. This studyprovided insights into how women faculty perceive many of these programs as well as the factors thatinfluence the decision to utilize the policies that
