the Civil War, shortly after the land-grant legislation was enacted, when the historically blackcollege system was established. The intentional choices made by Tuskegee and Howard collegesto offer classical humanities educational programs versus applied programs was done with theintent of providing a higher-intellectual set of opportunities for their graduates, in effect allowingthem to become doctors and lawyers and teachers as opposed to applied technologists (Carney).The comparable choice for tribally controlled colleges, currently being decided eitherintentionally or not, is the focus of this paper.The tribal college movement, largely born in the late 1960’s and early 1970’s, served twoimmediate demands on their respective reservations

Educational research is often neglected, downgraded,or placed at a lowered priority in some institutions. Part of the reason is the long-term outcomeof the research. How we can promote a new sustainable teaching/learning strategy to the facultyin STEM fields?Sustainability (Software and Contents): Establishment of an online teaching system is a “one-time” effort (we acknowledge that it is a time-consuming effort).

design was adopted in this project because of its ability to extendthe breadth and range of inquiry by using different methods, to clarify results from one methodwith the results from the other method(s), and to seek elaboration enhancement, convergence,and corroboration of results of different methods (Greene, Caracelli, & Graham, 1989). Weelaborate on our two-phase design as follows. In the first phase, the research team designed a survey based on existing scales andpractical insights from experienced NFLC facilitators and university administrators. The surveywas conducted with faculty members (n=49, with 29 participated in the NFLC) who were hiredsince 2004 with special attention to faculty who started after 2011 (the initiation of

In the following we will refer to the Zwick Z 250’s usage for performingtensile tests. This test is one of the most common and efficient tests for determining materialproperties12. The properties are important for designing manufacturing processes and can beused in forming applications like FEM-Simulations (e.g. simulation of forming processes orproduction processes). Hence, it is on the one hand a very basic but on the other hand an im-portant test in context of manufacturing technology. Figure 1: Tele-operative testing cell at TU Dortmund
