Can an assessment as learning beutilized by engineering educators to demonstrate the principles of technical contract review using asyllabus as the contract further increases students’ understanding? Method An online engineering mechanics course conducted during the 2023 summer sessionincluded an assignment where 125 students were asked to review the syllabus and complete aquiz. Questions to the quiz could be answered by reading the syllabus. For example, students wereasked questions on office hours policy, alignment of assessments to topics, and prerequisiteknowledge.

But in most cases, it could be perceived as a possibledistraction from course content and could inhibit learning for some individuals.Regardless of whether instructors opt to or have the ability to restrict cell phone usage, the authorbelieves it is critical that instructors adapt to new learning techniques and appeal to the interests ofthe students. With cell phone usage averaging 8-10 hours per day for college-aged men and women[1, 2], delivering content via digital media may provide another way to reinforce classroomlearning goals. In particular, using online videos appeals to students because it allows adaptationto individual learning needs (exam preparation, missing lectures, homework help), manageability(pausing material, skipping

Studentsunderstand that the majority of their assessment, particularly on the final exam, will be based onproblem solving. Perhaps we could attempt to entirely interleave the course, working problems fromthroughout the course syllabus each lesson. Some might even suggest using mastery techniques, orasynchronous online methods so students could practice at their own pace. Using such approachesmight sacrifice the sense of community that was developed in the classroom, and the collaborativeproblem-solving techniques that were appreciated by the majority

It is typically taken by engineering students intheir second year of study, either fall or spring. Although the course has been taught by ninedifferent instructors over the past several years, it is essentially a team-taught course. Theinstructors use the same textbook and syllabus, assign the same homework, collaborate onwriting quizzes and exams, and use common grading rubrics. The course instruction closelyfollows the ExCEEd Teaching Model with the use of

Two separate policies were used over the course ofthe study. 1. In the Fall of 2021, there was no late penalty associated with the syllabus due date. Students had the ability to submit assignments up to the close of midterm grades for homework assigned before midterms, or up to the close of the semester for homework assigned after midterms. Students received feedback on each submission and full credit. No submissions were allowed after the midterm/final close of grades. Assignments

Hence, the students have enough timeto complete these practice questions individually in advance to save more time for peerdiscussions during the recitation session.During the online recitation sessions, no new content will be discussed.

Somecommonly used hierarchical structures include: • Top-Down Hierarchy: In this structure, the most general concepts are placed at the top, with increasingly specific concepts branched below. This structure provides a clear and organized view of the topic. • Bottom-Up Hierarchy: This structure starts with specific details or examples at the bottom, leading to more general concepts at the top.
