The total incoming freshmen class consisted of roughly 450-500 students, sothe responses were gathered from more than half of the class. These data are useful inunderstanding incoming student preparation, and which areas they may perceive as relativestrengths because of this preparation.We present here the data combined from Fall 2019 and Winter 2020 data, summarized in table 1below. For the areas of project management and secondary research, the majority of studentsgenerally perceived that they had enough or a lot of knowledge in these areas, as reflected byboth their self-reported knowledge and an analysis of their narrative responses.

In the summer of 2020, IEC leadership posted thefollowing statement on their website.The world witnessed George Floyd's horrific death captured with cell technology. The blatantdisregard for his life and that of so many others like Ahmaud Arbery, Sandra Bland, MichaelBrown, Philando Castile, Eric Garner, Botham Jean, Atatiana Jefferson, Trayvon Martin, TamirRice and Breonna Taylor is inexcusable and demands justice. Systemic racism must stop!We use this moment to call on all IEC members to reflect on the brutal murder of innocentAfrican Americans and to consider ways to change our institutions.

In this paper, the focus is on the demands of oneself that lead tomaladaptive behaviors and feelings like procrastination and paralyzing anxiety. This approachincludes perfectionism cognitions and perfectionistic self-representations.Perfectionism cognitions are the automatic thoughts that reflect the need to be perfect andawareness of imperfections whereas

]. Ina small group, learners have greater control on self-directed learning and have the opportunity topractice self-reflection and self-discipline [23]. These skills are essential for lifelong learning[23]. Small group discussions promote deep, rather than surface learning [24]. Despite many advantages, small group discussions can be a challenge for many students.According to [25], “ Many of the difficulties arise because group work involves the comingtogether of groups of individuals, each with their own knowledge, attitudes to learning, sets ofexperiences and personalities.” In a typical classroom, diversity amongst students is inevitable,even amongst domestic, English speakers.

We learned about the need for the teacher candidates to feel better prepared to work withstudents in urban high-needs schools, which are often times very different their own personalexperiences. A possible way to overcome this barrier is for the TPP students to spend more timewith the youth in our local community-based organizations in informal contexts [18]. Thus, weimagine authentic, immersive pre-practicum experiences in our local city, such as tutoring andparticipating in afterschool programs that serve the K-12 students from low-income and highlydiverse areas [19, 20].

Overall, we have noted that smartness is a function of the context inwhich it is constructed, and the context of each pathway is of importance in understanding howstudents construct their identities. As such, this finding is being further explored acrosspathways, and a conceptual model of smartness identity is in progress to help us further explorethis finding.Future WorkFuture work will consist of the full analysis of the second and third rounds of interviews alongwith a more in-depth exploration of

as to thecontent of their coursework and neither of these goals are easily met in large-format courses thatserve all majors [6].Students desire a community of peers and faculty as well as a sense of belonging [7] within theirmajor. Belonging can be developed in many ways, but a core piece of belonging is knowing whatyou belong to. When students understand what they are studying, they can connect their input(academic effort) to an output (degree attainment, career) that reflects their values and self-identity now and, in the future, [8]. A large contributing factor to programs not being able to helpstudents make connections is a lack of major-specific courses available where students can findand spend structured time with peers/faculty in

Craft and Harlow [2]observed increased requests from graduate students for scholarly communicationstraining in a variety of topics, with the top choices being “publishing tips” and“post-dissertation publishing” [3]. This demand for training reflects the need amongstudents for guidance in navigating the publication process. Many doctoral programs,especially in the sciences and engineering, require students to publish in order tograduate. As relative novices in the complicated, often opaque arena of academicpublishing, many of these students struggle with the task and would benefit fromguidance
