They will be expected to take part in cooperative education communities through advising, tutoring, conducting seminars, or working as Teaching Assistants (for university credit or for pay through other university funds).7. The program will provide post-graduation preparation. There will be career training as well as opportunities to learn about graduate work and internships. Objective: Scholars will have the opportunity to attend career-related workshops such as seminars about professions in the STEM disciplines, resume writing workshops, or mock interviews. Those that wish to further their education will be provided information and training for GRE completion

Simply stated, activities could be tailor-made to take into considerationthe class-size, if need be. Also, it should consider differences in levels, nature of the materialbeing taught, and the maturity of the recipients.In-class discussion is considered by most

Research has shown that one predictor of persistence in college is feeling asense of mattering and belonging [1], [37]. Commuter students are particularly at risk of notpersisting [1]. Mattering is defined as “the feeling one has when he/she feels that he/she isnoticed, cared about, needed, and valued by another person” [12] and the sense of belonging as“the perception of peer and faculty support, classroom comfort, and isolation [3], [11], [38]-[40].The challenge is how one goes about

What accounts for thesediscrepancies, and what can we, as engineering educators, do to help students become moreskilled communicators and better understand the role that communication plays in engineering?One reason that many students fail to recognize the importance of communication may be thatcommunication is generally treated as a set of skills that students are supposed to acquireoutside of engineering—in composition, technical writing, or public speaking courses. Studentssee no relation between communication and their genuine engineering work, such as solvingequations, modeling processes or doing product design. Although widespread, this approach tocommunication pedagogy is criticized by
