• Abstract: The aim of any curriculum is to produce industry ready students. The effectiveness of curricular activities, thus, can be measured by the performances of fresh graduates at their job sectors. To evaluate the Software Engineering (SE) syllabus, Institute of Information Technology (IIT), University of Dhaka, has taken an initiative, under the project IQAC, HEQEP, where a survey based study has been performed. The uniqueness of this SE syllabus is having a six month long internship semester inside the curriculum. Considering all the other courses and activities as traditional, the outcome of the study can fairly be considered as the effect of the Internship program. The result shows that the students having internship experiences, performed above the level of expectation from the industries.

  Students who start a homework assignment earlier and spend more time on it should receive better grades on the assignment. Existing literature on the impact of time spent on homework is not clear-cut and comes mostly from K-12 education. We develop a hierarchical Bayesian model to help make principled conclusions about the impact on student success.

  The School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering Sheridan maintains a curriculum that is deeply rooted in skills-based learning, experiential learning, and engineering design. An important challenge still impeding our students knowledge acquisition is the perception that program courses have disjointed learning outcomes. One feasible approach to tackle this pedagogical challenge is to combine various courses into an integrated learning block (ILB) having a unified mission and objective.
