Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the sample size and the number of devices in this studyare greatly limited as the data collection process is prolonged, and equipment is generally notdirectly accessible to participants. Future work aims to increase the sample size, compare the EPwith more commercially available EEG headsets, and improve the data quality evaluationprocess to compare the current design in a more accurate and holistic manner.

As a futuredirection for this work in the field of biomaterials, we plan to adapt our undergraduate at-homeexperiments for ceramic toughness and polymer stiffness for STEM outreach purposes. Thiswould involve simplifying the broad list of potential variables undergraduate engineeringstudents explored in their inquiry-based approach (e.g., ceramic porosity, polymer solutionconcentration) and target specific learning gains about ceramic toughness and polymer stiffness.Our long-term goal is to implement these lessons in more remote areas of the country to betterserve a wider range of underrepresented

To find courses for a particular department, we checked thelatest available four-year plan of study at each department’s website for the traditional studentsmatriculating into undergraduate engineering degrees.

When thisshared understanding is lacking, change is much harder to come by (Lyon et al., 2014).Troublingly, however, it has become evident that universities are not always aware of theirstudents’ expectations and are therefore unable to factor their voices into institutional change.Allen and Nichols (2017) highlight that while student input is frequently involved in the processof evaluating and revising teaching efforts, it is seldom included when planning and operatingother forms of student support. While Kuh et al.

In this use case,groups of Bachelor students are asked to plan a shop floor of a robotics manufacturer via anaugmented reality application and afterwards maintain it in a fully immersive virtual realityenvironment. During the process of maintenance several problems occur that the studentsneed to solve. The key to success is a combination of effective communication, skilfulteamwork and a sensible division of labour. The mixed reality game was developed in 2019and 2020 and applied for the first time in 2020 in a class of 460 engineering students. Theother

These concerns are partially,though not completely, alleviated by the new course structure proposed in the previousparagraph.Some tips for ease of implementation: 1. Plan ahead. The number one tip is to strategize and prepare in advance as much as possible.

its functionality is surprisingly difficult and revealsthat novices struggle both to accurately read code and to extract meaning from that code [2].Xie and colleagues argue that programming should first teach students how to read/trace codeand then teach them how to comprehend common programming templates or plans [8]. Thesetemplates could be seen as being connected to the idea of beacons, where certain commoncoding patterns can help an expert more quickly identify the purpose or meaning of a line ofcode. Based on studies that have suggested that tracing skills may play an important role inhelping students read code [9], some have proposed that early code reading should focus onteaching students how to formally trace programs with promising

The work described in this current paper focuses on this intersectionbetween a change in pedagogy and students’ engineering identities.Recent research proposes both quantitative and qualitative ways to measure engineering identity.For example, Godwin developed a survey to measure engineering identity, with a focus on threeconstructs: recognition as an engineer, interest in engineering, and performance/competence inengineering [25]. Meyers et al. also used a survey to model engineering identity developmentemploying stage theory [26].

Students also completed a role play activity where they are asked to take on the role of stakeholdersin a project, such as community member, regulator, consultant, and engineer. Students then debated amining problem and discussed what their needs are. This activity takes a much more implicit approach toCSR. It emphasizes the importance of listening to stakeholders and recognizing their needs, however theterm CSR isn’t explicitly used.

education should be provided to students who plan to be leaders: And I don't think that we should, we should say that everybody has to be a leader. I think what we need to do is we need to find, you know, where the students find out who they are…. Leadership is important, but I think it's more important to align the students with who they are and the areas they're going into.Dr. Dan explained that not all students want to take leadership positions in their careers. Hisdescription of leadership is conflated with management where one is assigned with a role andpower to control, supervise, and direct other people. As a result, he believed that providingleadership education, which can solely be beneficial for students
