Building trust can have a far-reaching effect beyond asingle class since each student will share their experience with peers and students from otherclasses. Taken together the trust a particular class has for a professor is strengthened and the timeto establish trust with the following group of students can be shortened. Mutual trust supports aclimate in the classroom necessary for effective discussions. What

For this project, three groups (undergraduate, graduate and faculty) with differenteducational backgrounds developed learning modules. The student groups were selected to helpwith the development because it would give a fresh perspective on the design projects. Theundergraduate students would gain some ownership in the education of their peers. The graduatestudent would learn more about teaching through the development of a design project. Theutilization of the student groups to develop design projects would permit more design projects tobe available

They include the following. Provide easily modifiablematerials to help engage faculty in modifying or redesigning their instruction so innovativematerials are easy to use. Another suggestion is in fidelity of implementation of an innovation.For example, effective learning should not just elicit simple answers to contextualized questions,but also engage students in social construction of knowledge by peer discussion of underlyingconceptual justification of responses

Students working in teams will develop and sharpen skills in team organization, timemanagement, self-discipline, and technical writing, in order to be successful in this course.

to calibrate and compare their own progression through their degreeprograms to the progress of their peers. As implied by curricular flowcharts (another importantartifact), the default progression for engineering students begins in the first semester with Calc1, proceeding onwards through the math sequence and ideally completing the required coursesby the fourth semester of their undergraduate careers. Consequently, students classified as notready for Calc 1 who start at Pre-Calc in their first semesters are already “behind” their peersfrom the start of their college experiences while students who place into Calc 2 or 3 their firstsemesters are “ahead.” Feeling behind rather than ahead can be potentially detrimental to studentattitudes and

TheCommunity of Practice model consists of members of a professional community who surround acore of practicing experts.
