Students participating in the course, work forthree semesters towards the development of an app to enhance services and userexperience
data services through outreach toresearch faculty, staff and students, and deeper connections with institutional stakeholders. Theseactions have resulted in a set of services that includes data management plan consultations,workshops and course-based instruction, data curation for deposits in the institutional repository,and involvement in institutional data policies discussions.The Iowa Superfund Research Program (ISRP) is a multi-project center grant, funded by theNational Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) since 2006, to conductcollaborative research on sources, exposures, toxicities, and remediation of polychlorinatedbiphenyls (PCBs). This multidisciplinary program is currently composed of 22 faculty, 10 staff,and 25
School of MinesAllyce Horan, Colorado School of Mines Allyce Horan’s interdisciplinary background includes a B.A. in History and French, an M.A. in History, and a certification in TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language). She has been the Mines Writ- ing Center Director since 2018 where she has provided support to faculty, graduate, and undergraduate students on projects ranging from composition curriculum development to grant proposals. Allyce has taught a wide range of academic, technical, and ELL composition classes and workshops since 2012. She is passionate about supporting her campus community, empowering individuals to find their voice and effectively communicate their ideas not only to STEM fields but
examines the social practices that are context spe- cific within different academic disciplines. She has participated in the evaluation and assessment of state supported projects such as the Digital Literacy Pathways in California Report and the California STEM Innovation Network Summit, sponsored by the California STEM Learning Network Initiative. Azure received her Ph.D. in Education with a specialization in Teaching and Learning from the University of California, Santa Barbara. She has over ten years’ experience in Student Affairs working with graduate students across academic disciplines. American c Society for Engineering Education, 2021

Understanding patrons' needs for these items would beinformative for collection management. However, collection management decisions are often informed byanalyses that are better suited to more commonly collected and used items, such as monographs andjournal articles. These analyses may compare the use of existing collections to patron requests foradditional similar materials [2], and

The primary aim of this paper is to informother projects seeking to utilize AR in a library environment.Current Development EffortsContent Domains. The globe can be divided into three potential content domains: thesubsurface, including the Earth’s structural elements and other subterranean
Engineering, all first-year students follow a commoncurriculum, as part of a “Cornerstone to Capstone” curriculum design adopted in 2015. TheCornerstone course is taken in the students’ first year, and uses projects to emphasize the ways inwhich engineering can develop practical problem-solving applications. The course was carefullydesigned to help first-year students achieve success in the program regardless of the specificengineering major they select in their second year. The program has been continually reevaluatedand redesigned over the past several years, and the addition of the information literacy workshophas been one step in Cornerstone’s evolution. Prior to the workshops, instructors noted limiteduse of citations and academic references in
disciplines and subjects. Overall, the feedback was encouraging andconstructive. The respondents demonstrated that they recognized definitions of algorithm biasand its harms.Additional presentations at University of Southern California and California StateUniversity, Los AngelesBased on the work done in this current project we identified areas in the module that neededrefinement and adjustment. After making these changes to the initial material the module wasdeployed in sessions at Boise State University, Institution3, and California State University,Los Angeles in Summer 2019, Fall 2019, and Spring 2020 respectively.The module identified a grounding definition of algorithm bias that explained the differencebetween algorithms such as sorting that
part of the course.Another faculty member mentioned spending time reflecting on how best to approach groupprojects in the online environment. They stated, “I had a group project in the spring and they hada hard time working together in terms of common times and just engaging at a distance, so ifthey’re not all on campus, and not even in the same time zone, it created some challenges.”In terms of a positive impact due to COVID-19, one faculty member mentioned that recordinglectures as videos provided the opportunity to “flip the classroom” and change their typicalteaching method. This was something they had wanted to incorporate previously but did not havethe time or opportunity. However, one faculty had the opposite experience. As a more
