In future offerings, we aimto respond to student request for more hands-on activities in the introductory course. We are alsoexploring ways to add these topics to junior-level classes, including laboratory courses. As notedin recent work, students need practice developing their inclusion-related design skills in thecontext of analytical and technical practices, the common focus of middle-years courses [23].As the students who took the introductory course progress through the program, we will alsoneed to modify the module in capstone to account for their previous experience with the

A big part of the Clinic is how relaxed it is in that aspect. You get assigned a project and you have deadlines for that project but anything in- between (workload distribution etc.) is up to you, no one is watching over your shoulder to make sure you get the work done. I've tied back into my work at the Ideas clinic during every interview I've had because of how well it develops a self driven work ethic.”  “Working at the Ideas Clinic helped me develop critical thinking skills which were

Intaking up the formulations of “diversity, equity and inclusion” (or, DEI) since the early 2000s,engineering education and workforce planning in the U.S. have enacted a particular project offairness. This is one in which innate endowments of talent and fortitude, as defined by existingeconomic systems (capitalism) and epistemic enterprises (universities and occupations), willrightly result in differing degrees of economic and personal security for individuals and in which,due to the supposedly replete cultural transformations of the previous decades, race, gender andother

Participants leaned onthis support from family and friends to mitigate their problems and help others wheneverpossible.Participants interacted with advisors, programs, and services to find support during theirtransition into the 2-year institution. Advisors seemed to be the most critical support structure forstudents starting their 2-year institution. Some noted the importance of STEM-specific advisingin helping them figure out their course load and academic plans. For instance, one participantnotes: “...Well, I went to advisors but many of them ...

education could foster better learner engagement, critical thinking, and problem-solvingabilities [17]. Active learning has been shown to have a multitude of positive effects in highereducation and adult learning settings, yet adoption rates by educators are still low [14].Active learning and its importance in continuing educationActive learning in adult education is particularly important because adult learners are more likelyto be self-directed than college learners. This self-directedness leads to learners desiring to havean active say in their professional development courses. Self-directed learning is a process inwhich educators start proceeding in planning, formulating their learning goals, implementing thelearning activities and strategies

Given these impacts on society and considering that computing andengineering continue to merge as advanced technologies are developed, a need has beenestablished for ethical reasoning in technical curricula [3- 6]. Previous work presented acollaborative lesson plan that integrated science fiction and principles of ethical engineeringdesign in an introductory engineering computing course [7], which could be used and adapted byengineering and computer science faculty.Given established needs to diversify the technical and engineering workforce as well asinitiatives to mitigate biases in algorithms and technology, the need for diversity, equity, andinclusion in computing education [8 - 9] and engineering education [10,11] have

is a disconnect between planned andenacted curricula [41]. Students have aligned experiences when they can build upon theirexisting knowledge base and integrate new knowledge and interpretations. In addition, coherencein a program is enhanced when educators start to think collectively about what their graduateswould need instead of focusing on their personal wishes [42].2.7 Reflective PractitionersReflective practice is more than just thoughtful practice. Schön’s notion of reflective practicewas a reaction against an instrumental notion of the teacher as a technician implementing others’knowledge in practice [43]. McArthur-Rouse [44] stresses the need for the development ofprofessional identity, and Booth et al. [45] believe that to enable

Additionally, after theinterviews of the central faculty (egos) are completed, the adjacent faculty (alters) will bereached out to for similar interviews and be asked similar questions. This will create many morecompleted networks that will seek to examine correlations and cliques that arise from theinterconnected faculty.

A survey of researchers atBrazilian universities and research centers that found differential impacts on paper submissionsby both gender and caregiving status. Specifically, male researchers without children were morelikely than their caregiving counterparts to submit papers as planned. A similar pattern wasfound for female researchers with and without children, though both groups submitted fewerpapers as planned compared to their male colleagues [28].Changes in productivity and shifts in time allocation do not tell the whole story about how thepandemic impacted one’s work.

reflecting on my work with my research group, I am concerned with not just offeringpractices and strategies, but revealing the model that informs them. Practices simply demonstrateone person’s operation of a model. In contrast, a model provides an overview of key componentsof a system, illuminates a rationale for practices, and allows others to adapt the model to fit theircontext. As I have planned and developed my research group, I adapted the WorkforceSustainability Model [16], a conceptual model for measuring sustainability in a constructionworkforce. Although developed for use in construction, the model’s three levels of components(attributes, indicators, and metrics) can be applied to other contexts.In my case, I particularly drew upon the

On the other hand, pictorialrepresentations were not grounded in mathematics or science concepts.

This includes review of course content and lesson plans.The Department of Civil and Mechanical Engineering also takes conscious steps to structurecourse schedules to give junior faculty opportunities to observe more senior instructors.Experienced instructors will often teach in the earlier hours; this allows new instructors toobserve those lessons before teaching their own sections later in the day. Comparison of finalexam data across multiple years and instructors is further enabled by delivery of consistentcourse content. Instructors have autonomy to modify their lesson plans, but the
