. “Typically, full-time faculty are more accessible to students,have offices and office hours, are familiar with the institutional services available to students andhave an understanding of grading and performance norms for the courses they teach. This meansthat students can have a significantly different educational experience, particularly in regard totheir access to faculty members, based on arbitrary scheduling decisions” (pp. 13-14)41.In a study that focused on sequential courses of developmental mathematics and regularmathematics with a focus on instructor status, the results indicated that students who took thefirst course with a part-time instructor followed by a full-time instructor were less likely tocomplete the second course.

“best practices” of implementing PEL projects include providing time for project development,advance notice for students to ensure clear expectations, and that projects designed to besemester long should include a variety of course concepts. One faculty member suggests that it isbest to assign the project early in the semester “so that they can get thinking on a concreteexample[s].” This additional time allows student groups to review the project concept severaltimes as a group and turn to instructors throughout the semester for clarity. Due to theassessment weight and the length of the project, student project groups are often strategicallycomposed to provide an intellectual balance.

These themes were clustered based ondifferent aspects of returners’ identity, including their identity as scholars, as individual students,as members of the student community, and as whole people. Themes also emerged that describedthe transition in identity that took place as returners made and executed the decision to return toschool2. Further analysis showed that Expectancy Value Theory (EVT) was a suitable frameworkfor interpretation of the data4. This interpretation yielded several interesting findings.

However, achieving this end will require overcoming“resistance from students, scientific educators, school directors and from the professionitself or sometimes from employers” [15, p. 300]. In the United States, 80% of engineeringstudents graduate from programs that do not require an ethics course [7]. Althoughchallenges in engineering ethics education have been well documented, the literature mainlycomes from the observational and anecdotal perspective of few educators.

Community college faculty areaware of the importance of partnerships, and many desire to collaborate with members ofindustry to provide professional development opportunities for students (Smith and Wingate,2016). However, professional development is not enough if it does not also help students affordto stay in college. Kruse et al.
