several aspects were unclear during this initial period as one of theparticipants indicated: “since the change was rapid and we use like the board a lot since, like algorithms and programming and we had to deal with the tools that they're currently available and like they provide some similar to a board, but in order to get used to that, it's going to take some time. So, since it's like a rapid change. I had to deal with it.” (ID 58, Spring 2021, Interview 1)This participant was unclear about how to deal with the changing situation, as the mode of teachinghad to change from writing on a board during class to something different.Another common topic within uncertainty was in terms of exams. “One was the biggest

A key relationship is thestudent’s identity in relation to engineering, and their ability to make connections to engineeringand identifying social justice problems. This relationship is shown in Figure 2, where each bubblerepresents a team, and the size of the bubble relates to their identity in relation to engineering, asmeasured by the number of times they referenced being an engineer in their writing. Being able toidentify social justice inequalities helped students be able to make the connection betweenengineering and social justice. The informal

resistance isbehavior that seeks to address social injustices within or through engineering but has no critiqueof the role of engineering in social oppression. An example is an engineering student whobelieves that the best way to help reduce the number of students leaving engineering is to offertutoring for their peers so that they can better adapt to the culture of engineering [48]. While thisstudent demonstrates social justice motivation, they engage in a superficial solution withinexisting social systems and social conventions that does not deal with structural causes of theproblem and has no critique of engineering [48].

emphasis on students using textbooks, not allstudents read their textbooks [7], regardless of their satisfaction with the material [20], and thattextbook use is often not related to student performance in the classroom [21]. Developing OERmaterials that are truly engaging to students and benefit their learning requires not just subjectknowledge, but also instructional design and educational research on student learning behaviorsand, ultimately, the smooth integration of these areas into the design and development of OERmaterials. Creating quality OER that appeals to instructors also requires expertise in a wide rangeof publishing skills, such as peer review, manuscript preparation, vetting for copyright andpermissions, copyediting, design, and

A similar idea can exist fordeveloping creativity in engineering programs.Engineering students must be taught the fundamental concepts of creative application ofknowledge along with the skills to employ creativity. Importantly, they must be provided with avariety of opportunities throughout the curriculum to apply in creative ways the technicalknowledge they are building and be provided with focused and specific feedback.

Once students select their research topic, they proceed to work on writing a technical survey paper on the subject. Students must use acceptable technical writing templates for their paper and should rely on an adequate number and type of references to ensure a balanced and credible coverage of the subject. In the Fall 2021 course offering, students followed the IEEE conference paper template. At the end of the semester, students present their research to the entire class, practicing appropriate public speaking and communication skills and responding to peer questions and feedback. • Assignments: the

Perceived benefits from robot integration in introductoryprogramming courses include an increase in programming skills, peer learning, and studentmotivation [3]. It has been observed that along with fostering creativity, using robotics in thesecourses increases student success [4, 5]. In general, introductory engineering courses haveincorporated robots with a goal to increase problem solving skills [6] and overall programretention [7]. However, robots are often a source of frustration to students.

As such, the labs were re-designed to be completed by individuals. At the end of the semester, we adapted and deployed a survey (based on earlier work byRecktenwald and Hall [2]) to collect students’ feedback and response to the new format of teaching.The main objective of this paper is to summarize the novel teaching setting and provide an overviewof the feedback we received from the students.

When reflections have beenemployed in higher education engineering courses, the focus has been on less technical artifactsincluding peer interactions [16], portfolios [17], or using course grades to measure the efficacy ofreflections [18]. That is, reflection is mostly used for behavior-based reflection (i.e., working wellin a group, learning a tool, or effective study habits) rather than more typical engineering content. Reflection assignments can be categorized to quantify levels of learning. Multiple studieshave offered categorical ways in which reflections can be coded [19-22].

Approximations generally try to target specific elements of practice and create conditions of reduced complexity in order to make it easier … to try out new elements of practice while reducing the consequences of failure. [9]Two well-known types of approximations include: (a) teaching individual students or smallgroups of students within field experiences [1, 10]; and (b) peer teaching experiences wherePSTs teach other PSTs and/or their teacher educators who assume the roles of students [11, 12].Regarding the former, the field experiences
