. In order to answer the question, “dDo web-based programming environments increase learner content gains during and after initialinstruction?” this study focused on a subset of the pre/post assessment questions related to thefundamental CS theory. Table 5.3.1 contains some of the questions from the actual assessment. Itis important to note that question seven, regarding the illustration of sequential operation, onlycontained graphical illustrations while all the remaining questions were related to real codestatements in one of three programming languages: C++, Python or Logo.

. Through the interaction with remotely accessible realequipment via the GUI, the users should be able to visualize the experimental process, gain afeeling of immersion into a real laboratory environment, and also be able to adjust the input andimmediately observe the experimental output. Usually, the GUI is composed of an instrumentcontrol section, an experimental input section and an experimental results section. In theinstrument control section, the options may include lighting, audio and video and dataacquisition functions. In most real-time setups, a global video view providing an overview and alocal video view zooming in on the analyzed object(s) are streamed in real time. In addition, theusers are often given the option to save the video

Sheardown Department of Chemical Engineering, McMaster University, Hamilton ON L8S 4L7Abstract: Self and peer assessment can be vital parts to any team assessment. Theassessment can be of the overall team or of the performance of team members.Assessment is a judgment as to the degree to which a goal has been achieved. Instudent self assessment, the judgment is made by the student. In this paper the fiveprinciples of assessment are summarized. Assessment is about performance notworth; is based on evidence not intuition

Theefficacy of the program discussed in this paper is based on teaching at the undergraduate/graduate(formal) and K-12 (informal) levels. It may be pointed out that no formal education research wasconducted to generate the Table 1. Thus, the data provided here is qualitative and is based on theassessment of instructors, parents and other professional observers (one of the observers had a doctoratein education).

’ actual work has been found poor.15In light of these issues, many researchers have defined engineering retention as simply thenumber of engineering graduates who report being employed in an engineering occupation.16-21By this measure, as of 2008, an estimated 1.2 million out of 2.5 million individuals withengineering as their highest degree were retained in engineering.22 Nonetheless, an obviouslimitation of counting engineers in this way is that, unlike using degree-job relatedness, “it willnot capture individuals using S&E knowledge, sometimes extensively, under [other]occupational titles”.21 In other words, defining engineering based on occupational classificationdoes not capture the full range of career paths that engineers take.14,23

(2014)’s learningstrategy interventions, and Borrego et al.

It is not enough to do a basicliterature review; we want to be sure that we are broadly and systematically reviewing what isavailable with regard to graduate students in mentoring triads.Systematic literature review. As defined by Borrego and colleagues’ 2014 study on the subject,a systematic literature review follows a set of procedures in order to be reproducible [12]. Theseprocedures are Decision, Identification of Scope and Research Questions, Inclusion Criteria,Finding Sources, Critique of Sources, Synthesis, Limitations/Concerns, and further writing thereview itself. The Decision stage is the first step, in which the researcher(s) must agree to beconsistent and effective “between goals, research questions, selection criteria, and

Typically, this could bea think-pair-share about applications of the innovation, classroom survey of what type(s) ofengineering would work on this project, or even getting a show of hands to demonstrate who hadseen the innovation previously (typically less than a quarter). This provides opportunity forstudents to connect to ideas that interest them, and to see the contexts by which engineers worktogether on similar projects.Table 1.
