In the latter case, the MOOC was to be offered in addition to the regular for-creditcourse.

, service initiatives, and teaching various courses, leave many facultywith little time to develop teaching effectiveness.Classroom management is a critical concern in academia. Unfortunately, most universityfaculty have not had any formal training on classroom management. Consequently, manyare left on their own to figure out how to competently teach and manage their students’behavior and performance1. Often, faculty resort to trial and error experimentation, withsome imitating the techniques used by experienced colleagues or former instructors.Fortunately, successful classroom management skills can be learned and developed. Theauthor’s experience as a teacher and industrial supervisory-leadership trainer helped himto recognize that many leadership

When the well educated and highly motivated new professor firstencounters the everyday challenges of teaching technical topics to students, the resultingmismatch between the anticipated situation and the actual one can be both surprising anddistressing. In fact, the widespread feelings of discouragement and the high levels of stressassociated with the first year of teaching are well documented.1Perhaps the disappointments experienced by many first-year professors stem from the potentiallylarge disconnect between their excellent preparation in some areas and their relative lack ofpreparation in others. Specifically, many new professors are extremely well prepared in terms oftechnical understanding and personal

My tenure as a grad student has been a whirlwind of classes,research, teaching, reading, writing, presenting, adversity, and fun. The lessons I learned alongthe way have helped to shape me both as a scientist and an educator; however I wish that I knewexactly what lay ahead during my graduate odyssey.The goal of this paper is to provide that road map, both incoming and current graduate students,through a series of stories and lessons I learned during my graduate career.

Universities have adapted curriculum to be completely virtual or a combination of virtualand in-person learning. The combination of remote and traditional face-to-face learning,sometimes referred to as a hybrid or blended structure, integrates online discussion with limitedin-person class times [1].

Despite some complains athaving to learn yet another software package, all of them do learn MathCad. A walk through the computercenter, at the end of the quarter, invariably shows students taking advantage of their newly acquired skills, forcompleting projects and laboratories in other areas as well
