Short writing example involving exploration of topics in Physics 230.During the third week of class, students were given a short in-class writing activity in the form ofa classroom assessment technique (CAT) pioneered by Angelo and Cross [22]. Often referred toas a “minute paper” the students were asked two questions which are illustrated in Figure 3. 1. What was the most useful or meaningful thing you learned during our session together today? 2. What question(s) remain uppermost in your mind as we ended the session? Figure 3.

a learning environment in STEMeducation [1], but less is known about conducting engineering design challenge activities inhome environments. Although many studies highlight the development of STEM concepts andskills, more research is needed to understand how to support this development through caregiver-child interactions at home. This study aims to (a) investigate caregiver-child interactions thatsupport the development of child(ren)’s STEM conceptualizations and skills in engineeringdesign challenge activities within family pedagogical practices, and (b) examine caregivers’pedagogical expectations within family pedagogy. Guided by Vygotsky’s cultural-historicalview, the authors analyze child(ren)’s development of STEM conceptualizations

grading platform (Marmoset), which is capable of doing functional assessment ofstudent code, but not an assessment of style, nor of design. The shift to automatic grading for onequestion also necessitated that the question had to be highly structured, though the otherquestion(s) were similar to past years. All of the assignment questions required coding in C++.2.2.3 MTE121 Course ProjectThe course project in 2019 was to design and implement a mechatronic/robot system of thestudents’ choosing, while meeting a set of given specifications for the mechanical system(number of sensors and motors) and the software (number of functions); taking place over thelast 5 weeks of the term. Students, in groups of three or four had the freedom to choose their
of degrees compared to the number ofindustry jobs (i.e., involving the design, manufacturing, regulation, and sale of products andservices in the biomedical sector) available for biomedical engineers in the 1970’s and 1980’s[9]. However, as more programs have developed and the number of graduates has increased, theratio of graduates to the number of industry job openings has become less promising [6]. Further,research on student job placement shows that the history of BME program development asintentionally broad and unique to each institution’s faculty strengths [9], may have had anegative impact on industry’s perceptions of BME graduates, limiting BME student industrycareer placement upon graduation [5], [9], [11], [12].

. Another page of the survey asked students to select one or two nouns(among 14 options) that best describe the nature of the role they took in the context of the team.Nouns connoted various conceptions of leadership (e.g., Director, Sheriff), fellowship (e.g.,Therapist, Referee), and followship (e.g., Assistant, Secretary).Part 4. Explain Choices. The final page required participants to offer some explanation orclarification of their previous responses by answering at least one of two prompts: (a) “How didYOU decide how much individual effort to invest in each design task?” (b) “What other verb(s)or noun(s) describe how YOU contributed to the design project and functioned within yourTEAM? Why?”AnalysisThe WTCS data were analyzed using quantitative
outcomes, and interpersonal outcomes. Empathic processesresemble the skills dimension of Walther et al.’s [6] model of empathy in engineering andmanifest through perspective-taking, self/other awareness, and related skills. As this modelemphasizes, however, one’s orientation to others and one’s behavioral dispositions also play akey role in determining whether one will empathize. Thus, as one example, numerous factorsinfluence ‘team member understanding.’ Moreover, as Davis’s model emphasizes, this type ofintrapersonal understanding can promote interpersonal action or behavior.Second, empathy can promote positive teaming environments. Such positive teamingenvironments may be evident through a lack of negative valences, such as limited frustration

If one or more of these has had an impact in your life, please identify the instrument(s): MBTI, Kolb Learning Styles, Strengths-Finder Assessment (or equivalent), Emotional Intelligence (EQ) in Actin Profile or other (specify), and what was that impact? 9 You also completed a 360-degree instrument (Zenger-Folkman 360
learning) [1], [8], [9], [10]. For the “Minute Paper” the instructor takes a few minutes atthe end of class for students to answer two questions, generally what they learned and whatquestion(s) remains unclear/unanswered. The instructor can review the comments and address themost common comments in the next class as well as quickly assess a student's learning andunderstanding [8]. Eliciting information from students on the topic that is most confusing, or the“muddiest point”, has been applied for years in many different classrooms including GeneralChemistry [8], [9], [10]. For example, King [10] used clicker questions in a large enrollmentGeneral Chemistry course to have students anonymously identify the “muddiest point” from aselection of topics

As the students were working through the videos, the instructorwas able to join the breakout rooms to answer questions and provide guidance.With the data gathering complete, the students continued working in the breakout rooms toanalyze their values and results within Excel. The majority of the time, one person from eachgroup would use the Zoom share screen feature to present their excel spreadsheet so all memberscould work together on the data analysis. Once everyone was satisfied with the results, thespreadsheet and corresponding graph(s) were uploaded to the learning management system forinstructor review and grading.Kinematics and Dynamics lab – Virtual labThis lab begins with a general presentation covering

the 4Rs as an empirically understood heuristic [29]. Thelimits of this single example are many: as a single example case, it doesn’t clarify the many waysacademic reviewing processes do harm for scholars from different positionalities or illustrate themany strategies authors can use to recognize, reveal, reject, and replace the harm and inequitythey encounter. However, these additional strategies are illustrated in our findings and suggestthat the 4Rs and the margin of maneuverability comprise an applied theory useful for addressinginequities within and outside of the academy.[1] D.

was 2694 (fall: 1835, spring859). The number of videos viewed per student after week 8 in spring 2020 (switch to online)showed a slight increase (3.7) relative to the fall 2019 views per student (3.5) after week 8. Thissuggests that the utility of the GenZ video titles can be suitable in a completely online course.The instructor(s) provided multiple pieces of feedback to support these data. Each topic wasdesigned to have theory video(s) coupled with at least one practice video as a complete set forstudents. Students were encouraged to watch the appropriate videos before class to promote in-class discussion (a very slight shift towards a more flipped classroom). Two of the Introductionto Computer Science topics were not covered in-class—only
