The learning objective of this session is to presentpractical cases that enhance students' learning of algebra concepts through practical applicationsin engineering. Projects comprise a combination of design theory and hands-on implementation.Workshop Description.

Figur 1 Fa ult ati gs of Ob r atio Compo t tten t Self a Post-Obs Meet Pre-Obs Meet M a As seen in Figure 1, results indicate that the written summary report and the post-observation discussion were the most meaningful and useful parts of the process. This makes sense since they, in a complementary, practical, and focused way, delve into the specifics of what worked well and what needs to be improved in the faculty member’s teaching. Essentially, the written report anchors the post-observation
. Grading Rubric and Sample AbstractsTwo additional steps were implemented for the project in general. One was providing thestudents sample abstracts. Providing sample abstracts along with the structured guidelines wasexpected to give a complete picture of how to write an abstract. The samples given wereobtained and edited from students’ work in F13 so that the sample abstracts accurately portrayedthe expectations of the teaching team of student work. .Another step introduced to P2 was providing the students with the grading rubric of the abstract(see Appendix B). The rubric was drafted based on the detailed guidelines in Table 3. The 3-level system was created to simplify the grading system and to allow the students to know howtheir abstracts were

Note: The final group project was the only part unchanged in the course both before and after the redesign. This assignment was used to assess Course Goals I and II. a. For the final project, students selected topics on global health issues or other problems in bioengineering. The students were asked to brainstorm and design solutions to these bioengineering issues. b. The project was scaffolded, where parts were

The dependent variables weremeasured in two ways: (a) the students’ subscale and overall scale scores on the GPI, and (b) thestudents’ subscale and overall scale scores on the EGPI. Brief descriptions of the instruments arepresented below.The Engineering Global Preparedness Index. Designed and extensively tested by one of thestudy’s Investigators, the EGPI instrument is aligned to both ABET’s outcomes (Criterion 3) andthe NAE’s Engineer of 2020.8 The EGPI directly measures how prepared students are to enterglobally focused engineering workforces. The EGPI uses a 6-point Likert-type scale and has foursubscales, each of which have been extensively validated and tested for reliability using

characteristics of engineering literacy from existing literature, we constructed theEngineering Literacy survey (see Survey Design section and Appendix A) to provide aninstrument to determine student perceptions of their knowledge, skills, and valuing ofengineering. The survey was designed to address several questions: (a) What are students’ levelsof engineering literacy, in general? (b) Do students from science backgrounds differ from Page 26.1304.3students with liberal arts backgrounds with respect to engineering literacy? (c) Do male andfemale students differ on their engineering literacy perceptions? (d) Do more advanced students(e.g., juniors and
