Course descriptionThe overall goal of this new teaching practice is to equip students with the knowledge ofadvanced touch sensing technologies and developing microcontroller-based applicationsinvolving various touch sensing devices to solve engineering problems in practice. We taught theadded course materials in 5 weeks, two hours of lecture time and three hours of laboratory perweek. It has three major objectives.  To improve students’ awareness of common and different features among major touch sensing technologies. Page 26.1463.3  To introduce students

However, in this first course offering, no separateaccommodations were requested.Discussion labs are where the online course and on-campus course differ in that the onlinecourse did not have a discussion lab. The discussion lab is a time when students in smallergroups of 24 students review additional example problems, take check-point quizzes, andparticipate in hands-on laboratory experiments with the teaching assistants. The decision not tohave a discussion lab for the online course was one that was made with much reservation. Thedriving factor was the dilemma of how to schedule a time when all 39 students would be able toCourse Format On-campus Statics

Hence, most practical advice for promoting attentiveness and engagement centers on thattype of environment. In those environments, individual student-instructor interaction is easilypossible in order to keep students attentive and engaged.

Many skills are required including problem-solving, critical think-ing, creativity, communication, team working, and time management. Traditionally, expositionallectures or closed and hands-on laboratories are used to teach database design. Exams are usuallyused to evaluate knowledge and skills required in the database design process. In the rest of thisarticle, we refer to such methods as traditional methods. Unfortunately, despite their wide use,traditional methods are found to be ineffective for teaching and learning the abstract and complexdomain of database design [2, 3].

These resultscan help inform faculty as they seek to support GTAs in the GTAs‟ teaching responsibilities.IntroductionFor many years, graduate students have served as laboratory assistants and graders forundergraduate engineering courses. Due to recent efforts to increase hands-on activities inengineering education, many institutions are now also employing graduate teaching assistants(GTAs) as course instructors and lecturers 1-3.

This is done under the mentorship of experienced faculty in the student’s discipline, and with advising from the course faculty. The general structure of the practicum is that each student selects a course and a mentor within their discipline. Presumably the mentor is the one teaching the selected course, though this is not necessary. One of us (the seminar faculty) serves as the advisor of the practicum.
