Whenhomework has been used effectively, it typically required a grade[18], self or peer review[19] anduses metacognitive tools[1], [20]. Chickering and Gamson established seven principles for goodpractice in undergraduate education[21]. This study directly follows one (give prompt feedback)and indirectly supports three of the principles (develop cooperation among students, encouragesactive learning, and communicates high expectations).Homework facilitates learning and it can also be used to assess learning. Students can demonstratetheir mastery of concepts, while self-study allows them to apply knowledge in new ways onproblem sets. The

Finally, Discourses that influenced the identities that emergedfrom each participant’s interview were identified in order to draw connections to widerinfluences in the social and political landscape.From this analysis process, six Discourses were identified: pedagogical, economic,individualistic, peer collaboration, math, and research. Pedagogical Discourses were the mostfrequent in students’ interviews (excluding discourses directly related to solving the problems).Many of the Discourses highlighted the practices, expectations, and language uses associatedwith being a

Get a blank piece of paper, a writing instrument, and write and circle ‘Sustainability’ in the center of the paper. 2. The general form of your map should be a series of connected bubbles, with the ‘Sustainability’ bubble at the center. These bubbles do not have to be strictly hierarchical, and can include anything from words to phrases to images. They can be nested if that fits your understanding of concepts. Don’t try to put too much into any single bubble. You can label connecting lines (often with words describing the relationship) though you do not have to.

The lab for this week consisted of a 75 minute course block with areading and question prompts assigned for after the lab period. In the lab, the first activity forstudents was to discuss and define the word bias with their peers. At this point in the semester,students have not encountered a formal statistical definition of bias in data. In the next step,students were tasked to read a comic inspired by Dr. Joy Buolamwini’s work on gender shades(Buolamwini & Gebru, 2018). This comic was drawn by Vreni Stollberger and published in

With the use of new technologies and software tools,students were given the opportunity to create and post podcasts of their own research. Becausethe assignment was optional (students had a choice of writing a paper or creating a podcast ontheir original research) not all of the students created podcasts.

Working in a team encourages students to exchange ideas, expertise, andbest practices, which helps them learn from one another and not only from the teaching staff.When students work on programming assignments in a team, it allows students to peer reviewtheir team members’ code.
