To measure future researchinvolvement, alumni who have completed the first-year engineering honors program within thepast four years were surveyed to quantify their involvement in various research roles andactivities, including undergraduate research, presentations at technical forums and conferences,research and development internships, as well as planned participation in graduate orprofessional school. The survey consists of a variety of multiple choice, check boxes, andoptional short answers. The survey was combined with another

Proposals are solicited every semester, including summer, and reviewedfor quality and impact with special attention to the mentoring plan. Since its inception (Spring2013), 178 projects have been supported, with participation of engineering students in theirsecond through fourth years. Student participants in this Armour R&D

Engineering undergraduates enrolled in physics and thermodynamics reported thefrequency of use of problem-solving strategies, confidence in their ability to solve problems, andanswered demographic questions. Measures of performance included course grades. Factor-analytic methods that were applied to students’ reports of strategy use identified three types ofstrategies, which were labeled Execution, Planning and Looking Back, and Low Confidence inAbility. The three factors were significant predictors of course performance, based on correlationand regression methods that were applied to the data.

An example given by researchers is the use of this type of teaching to explain different points of view of a same topic where each half of the class is instructed on the same topic, but through two different points of view. Then, the whole class can come back together and discuss on the topic using those two points of view;  alternative teaching – in this type of co-teaching, one instructor is responsible for a larger
