Description

Secrets are not welcome in Idalis Villanueva’s engineering classroom. She doesn’t believe in withholding information or making assumptions about what students may or may not know. On day one, she asks students to refer to her as Dr. Villanueva or Dr. V; she clearly posts assignment due dates; she lists the objectives of each lesson; and she clarifies uncommon terms to make sure everyone is on the same page. This seemingly basic approach to instruction is nothing new, but emerging research suggests it is crucial to the success of would-be engineers.
