Student Learning in Science-Based Classroom Environments As a learning assistant for the analytical physics laboratory course, I have learned a great deal about how students learn and how to effectively use that knowledge to teach students. In the context of lab activities and open-ended research, several different pedagogical areas of interest have been extremely applicable to how I interact with students during my lab session and to what I believe is the best way for students to learn and…
passions of helping people and learning about those particular subjects. I stumbled upon biomedical engineering and with more research and exploration found it to be a potential profession and I hope to study it in college. This is a plan because I could change my mind on my career choice, but my choice to continue my education is firm. If I don 't get accepted to a college that offers biomedical engineering, I fully intend on studying majors that still involve science and math. I chose…
commitment to launch my engineering career in the consulting business and to obtain exceptional training within your design team as it is in alignment with my skills, experience and career objective and I will be working on the subject that I am truly passionate about. I personally believe that The HIDI Group has performed an astonishing work since 1975 in Canada by designing energy-efficient, yet comfortable facilities while providing outstanding professional engineering services and…
Introduction The overarching goal of this paper is to understand the Deepwater Program SoS engineering and integration failures before the program change in 2007 and develop recommendations for future similar SoS programs that can potentially prevent some of the failures from occurring. In order to achieve the goal of this study, reviews of documents produced by the Department of Defense (DoD), Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) reports related…
Science and Technology. In my college years, I have laid a solid grounding in landscape theory, professional software, as well as fundamental knowledge in sketch, color, perspective, and as such. My meticulousness and…
higher school students’ learning in various STEM subjects. Nevertheless, fewer studies have been conducted for exploring the application of CTAT in college STEM courses, particularly for African American students. The proposed research will fill the knowledge gap by answering following question: (1) To what extent can STEM faculty use CTAT to develop ITS for delivering the desired pedagogy? (2) What are impacts of the ITS-based SRL assessment on the development of a deeper understanding of…
content knowledge and skills that learners need to acquire. Of course this requires that the teacher is not only fully competent in terms of content knowledge but understands the underlying philosophy of the given curriculum…
also need to find a specific subject or field that is constantly growing and expanding in its knowledge rapidly so I don't become uninterested at anytime. Right now these jobs of interests are in fields that incorporate math, science, and technology (as of Junior year in highschool there is still some time to change) and what specifically interest me/ what I would like to major in is Biomedical Engineering. I can achieve this goal by applying for many different summer internships that focus on…
When people think about what it takes to be an engineer they typically think of the technical knowledge and know-how an individual must possess. However, the technical knowhow is not he only quality that makes an engineer special, virtues play a major role and can help engineers flourish. Character traits that are important for engineers to possess are virtues of thought as well as virtues of character. These virtues, or excellences, that an engineer must posses in order to succeed are developed…
The University Honors Program allows students to not only expand their knowledge but encourages them to develop leadership skills, help the community, and it teaches responsibility. Being part of such prestigious program will allow me to further my education through research and participation in the community. The Honors Program will provide the challenges necessary to keep me motivated and hungry for more information. Smaller class setting will provide a close interaction with professors and it…
