\n joel barnett,\u00a0 associate professor of the practice, mechanical engineering<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/em>this workshop will examine a research project and a design project that have been integrated into credit-bearing courses. professor joel barnett will talk about \u201cturning the textbook inside out\u201d to create small design projects, and dr. cynthia brame will discuss her experience adapting small chunks of a research project for a class. these examples will be used to illustrate key lessons for integration of research and design projects into an undergraduate curriculum. workshop participants will discuss benefits and challenges of integrating research and design into classes as it applies to their future courses.

\n ruth schemmer, assistant dean, graduate school<\/em><\/span>
\n<\/span>graduate students are competent, hard-working, intelligent people \u2013 but many feel inadequate when seeking a career. explore what skills are needed in the world of work, how to find out what they are, and how to prove you have them!

\n active student learning at the introductory level<\/strong> <\/span>
\n nayana bose, cft graduate teaching fellow <\/span><\/em><\/span> <\/span><\/span>
\nwe lecture, they listen. they study, we test. this session will workshop howto engage students to generate active student participation, receive regular feedback using quick and effective methods, and get students to apply the material to deepen their understanding of the subject. <\/span><\/div>\n

team-based learning<\/strong><\/span>
\n oscar ayala, graduate teaching fellow<\/em><\/span>
\n<\/span>team-based learning is one way to implement the flipped classroom. students prepare before class by reading or watching instructor-prepared videos and complete individual readiness assessment tests.\u00a0 the interesting part occurs in class: students repeat the assessment test as groups, who argue, teach each other, and ultimately reach a greater understanding of the material. these groups then apply that knowledge by completing projects that are real-world illustrations of the material. this interactive session will allow participants to learn this technique from the perspective of both the instructor and the student.<\/span><\/div>\n
