semester progressed.Student A also chose more higher-leveled questions in the online format in the latter half of thecourse. Their personal growth chart (Figure 2) shows the upward trend in scores over the courseof the semester based on each class date. This score (and the scores for every student) werecalculated by superscoring the student’s three C’s score every class session that they participatedin the activity. Then the averages for the in-person portion were averaged together separatelyfrom the online portion which were also averaged together. Their score during each class sessionis shown by the data points in Figure 2. Figure 2: Student A’s personal growth chart. No classes were held in the latter half of March.Student B also demonstrated

Problem figure for an introductory vector activity.The photos in Figure 2 on the next page demonstrate some of the compromises we made inscaling down the kit. One task in this activity has students build a model of a 3D position vectordescribing the relative positions of points O and B in Figure 1. Students use elastic cord torepresent this vector (modeled by the green cord in the photos) as the vector sum of its Cartesiancomponents (modeled by the three red cords in the photos). The in-class model uses the L-shaped flange-mounted post to create a direct concrete representation of the problem figure, withthe inside corner of the three pegboard panels

. We did find evidence for that, and we gained more detailed information about particularaspects of problem solving. What we didn’t expect was the large difference in faculty/studentperceptions of the importance of Attitude/Communication. While it may be more difficult toaddress, faculty and the university as a whole should pay greater attention to this domain if theywant to empower graduate students to be more successful in their graduate work.ReferencesBloom, B.

For this purpose we havebuilt four core modules that help with (a) high- resolution data acquisition and storage, (b) featureselection and model development, (c) model validation and (d) data visualization. Currently, thesefour modules are domain specific, i.e., they are not reused across the different application projectswe have built.
