They shared experiences and answered questions regarding the following topics:• What does it mean to be culturally competent?• How does cultural competence play a part in mentoring students or relationships withprofessors in graduate school?• How can we promote cultural

Behavioral Control Figure 1: Model of the Theory of Planned Behavior10Intention is what one has in mind to do or bring about, and is considered the immediatepredecessor of behavior10. A person must intend to engage in a behavior before they can engagein a behavior. Factors such as their intensity, attitude, subjective norm, and perceived ability mayhave mediating affects on intention. Simply put, if a person believes they are capable ofbehaving in a certain manner, believes that the rewards of behaving in that manner areworthwhile and beneficial, and has the support of their peers, family and friends, they will intendto engage in the behavior.Behavior, then, is the observable response in a given

In the second phase, the focus shifts to distance learning strategies, iterative refinement of thecourses, and collaboration with other peer institutions. All lectures will be provided via I2, butleft available on the class website for later or repeated viewing by students.

A measure of the success of the distance experiment is that there are asmany students enrolled at the Open University of Sri Lanka as in all the Sri Lankan conventionaluniversities put together.However, the distance option still suffers from problems. There is a high failure rate because ofdiminished peer interaction, lack of full time commitment and other reasons. But the problem ismost severe in engineering and (to a lesser extent) in the physical sciences where sometimesthere are more academic staff

Industry approaches aredescribed in various standards (e.g., IEEE Std. 1028-1997) appropriate for the designapplication. The TDR process is a peer evaluation of a design as it is developed and/or before itis deployed for development, fabrication or production. Peer reviewers are acquired fromindependent pools in order to provide experienced, unbiased, and objective design oversight19. Similar to spaced TDRs in industry, Wilson, Cambron, and McIntyre20 describe a capstoneTDR process that requires reviews throughout the year where students are used as independentreviewers (see also, 4

The participants rarely responded directly to questions aboutperceived gendered experiences, but when talking about their experiences in classes or on teams,did describe ways in which they had negotiated their space and their identity, earning respect ordemonstrating competence to gain a voice at the table.

Also, immediately after the activity, relevant discussion or sharing of studentwork is necessary to retain engaged students. In the observations, without a planned follow-upfor each active learning exercise, students who were off-task and then engaged in the activeexercise were often observed returning to their off-task work. Likewise, students who finishedan activity before their peers would participate in off-task activities, but a powerful summary ordiscussion of the exercise would often reengage those students in lecture.To illustrate the benefits to active
