In a sophomore mate-rial balances course, students will perform mass balances on the oxygenator, deoxygenator, and the over-all system. In a junior fluid mechanics course, students will characterize the rheology of the blood ana-logue (see blood module), measure the pressure drop across the oxygenator and compare it to the pre-dicted for a shear-thinning fluid. In the same course, students will determine the friction factor and com-pare it to that for water. In a ChE mass transfer course or a ME transport course, students will obtain acorrelation for the mass transfer coefficient in the form Sh = aRe b

IC can promote self-directedlearning and help develop professional problem solving skills because the format teaches thestudent to find and interpret the information needed to solve problems13.Challenges, however, exist with the Inverted Classroom regarding student (a) preparedness forclass, (b) attention span while watching online videos, and (c) misconceptions of fundamentalprinciples [15]. Basic guidelines, by Zappe et al., and Rais-Rohani et al.9, to overcome thesechallenges include (1) requiring an online quiz before class to ensure preparedness, (2) keepingvideos less than 30 minutes, (3) fixing student misconceptions by spending the first 10 minutesof class answering questions or holding mini-lectures, and

The i-JDSP has been developed using the Xcode IDE providedby Apple and the AJDSP has been programmed in the Android SDK, a Java based open sourceprogramming platform. Similar to J-DSP, the functions in iJDSP and AJDSP are available asgraphical blocks that can be added to the main simulation view. They have been designed toprovide maximum simulation space with minimum navigation. Both the versions support allbasic signal processing functions in an intuitive touch-based programming environment.

(Please note: continued discussion of the datasets will be performed. For example, the research team has already defined a CREATE student as a student who has successfully completed a CREATE course. Therefore, only data from students with grades of A, B, or C will be analyzed. The research team is in agreement that students who did not satisfactorily complete a course did not benefit from the successful learning that we are trying to trace into future wage increases and educational attainment).

services. When available, courses covering aspects of webservices are primarily offered to undergraduate seniors or graduate students. Therefore acompelling case can be made for the inclusion of SOP in undergraduate CS6.The authors have addressed the SOP curricular gap through the design, creation and useof two SOP course modules: (a) an introductory module aimed at the freshman coursessuch as CS 2, and (b) a mid-level module for courses such as Programming LanguageConcepts or Computer Networks. A third course module that aimed at the senior levelelective course has also been designed but is beyond the scope of this paper. As webservices are often a brand new concept to many students (and some faculty), the coursemodules rely heavily on examples
studied and acquired by protégés in an interactive andsystematic fashion. Apprenticed learning is recognized as involving four dimensions: A. content – the types of knowledge, B. method – the ways to promote development, C. sequencing – the order of events, and D. sociology – the social characteristics of the environment.These dimensions are further divided into 16 components, such as heuristic and control strategiesfor the content dimension or modeling, coaching and scaffolding for the method dimension. Thishierarchy of dimensions and components provided the basis for understanding and interpretingthe activities of a research laboratory as situated forms of professional practice. Research

This recommendation has guided multiple federal funding agencies, including NSF[2]. Texas House Bill 5 requires enhanced STEM content in high school curriculum as part ofthe graduation requirement [3]. Bill 5 lists four levels of high school advanced courses forgraduation: Foundation, Endorsement, Distinguished, and Performance Acknowledgements.Each level has an increasing level of course content in advanced STEM topics [4,5,6].

.” Explain a Problem Instructors looking for students to understand the reason behindsolutions to problems can opt for assigning Explain a Problem questions. Explain a Problemquestions are potentially the easiest to assign because they can be created simply by placing thewords “Explain” or “Why?” at the end of any calculation based problem. Example: “Calculatethe maximum velocity achieved by wheel A and wheel B. Explain why they are different.” Theformat of such explanations can be as detailed or simplistic as the instructor desires. How Stuff Works Assigning problems that ask students to explain how different objectswork helps students link classroom concepts to concrete objects, in turn reinforcing the real-world applications of their
