negative response. A significantdifference was also seen between Q15 (student perception of own computer literacy) and Q16 inboth the pre- and post-surveys, as shown in Table 3. Students’ perceptions were on averagepositive (mean >1.5) with regard to their own computer literacy but were negative (mean <0.5)with regard to anticipating technical difficulties with online learning. This is consistent with thewhole group analysis results.DiscussionGrades are not an adequate assessment of learning objectives being met if students are notadhering to academic integrity requirements. Whole group and paired data analysis resultsindicated that students on average planned on adhering to academic integrity requirements butdid not think that their peers

effectively reduces the credits to graduation bysix. Students can now more easily combine their engineering degree with a minor in a non-engineering subject, which may help them better position themselves for the career they are mostinterested in following. Many minors at UWM can be earned with one of the general educationcourses and fifteen additional credits – with proper planning this can be done as part of the 120credit curriculum. Some other minors may need students to take one additional course, but it isstill easier to achieve a combined mechanical engineering major and non-engineering minor withjust one additional course as opposed to five or six additional courses. For students primarilyinterested in technical topics, students now have more

Given HCD’s effectiveness in solving complex, ill-structured problems, educationresearchers advocate for integrating HCD in higher education curricula [2], [12]. Supported byconstructivism and experiential learning theories [13], they argue that students can benefit fromlearning about and implementing HCD practices to become lifelong learners and problem solvers[14], [15].

A 2017 report from the Brookings Institute [2] describes the need forindustry, educational institutions, and government to expand the digital knowledge pipeline andto ensure that this pipeline is inclusive and accessible. It is clear that industry needs moreworkers with computing skills than traditional programs can graduate [2].

The right PFC is often associatedwith divergent thinking and ill-structured representation. Patterns of functional connectivityacross students’ PFC also differed between the groups. The concept mapping activity reduced thenetwork density in students’ PFC. Lower network density is one measure of lower cognitiveeffort.

impact of cultural artifacts like these without also making anargument about what they mean.In planning this argument, we considered many fictional representations of technoscience in filmand television (some of which we may address in subsequent work), but ultimately narrowed ourscope to the recent films Hidden Figures and Black Panther. Pairing a historical docudrama witha serial franchise blockbuster allows us to cover distinct parts of major studio Hollywoodfilmmaking; these films also helped us keep our focus to be on engineering and technologydevelopment, when “women in STEM fields” are more often depicted in the life sciences and inmedicine. Finally, both films have been sufficiently prominent in discourse about “STEM rolemodels” that
