Initial results are positive, andthe project is currently experimenting with different e-portfolio formats that can elicit howstudents are developing both functionings and capabilities. One major issue that is still beingworked out is how to have a single portfolio that covers all four years of the program. The initialexperiments are thus focused on having students address different prompts each year. In the firstyear students explore various functionings in the major and identify personally relevantfunctionings. In the second year the focus is on potential careers, extending the functioningsview beyond the undergraduate program. In the third year students focus on processes ofpersonal

Not only does a passivelearning environment such as this fail to garner the students’ attention, but it also falls short indelivering opportunities for students to develop their soft skills.The materials for this course were originally designed for an in-person, active learningenvironment, using a variation of the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation,Evaluation) process model [2].

Each subsequent project builds on the previous, culminating in studentscompleting individual mini-projects. The removal of scaffolds over time relies on the assumptionthat students are adapting to, and developing strategies for, these tasks, meaning that as theydevelop as problem solvers, they become capable of better exploring and planning within anopen-ended space. Indeed, students seem to derive a sense of personal accomplishment fromdoing this work, which may motivate and

. Asdescribed by other researchers [21], in the absence of scientists of similar identities, she also hadto negotiate her identity with the normality of whiteness within scientific research spaces.Like other researchers [15], [16], our findings show that the development of science identity didnot necessarily lead to the REU students seeing themselves pursuing a research career. Central tothis decision was the perception of the REU students that scientific research was an individualendeavor not aligned with their desire for personal interactions in their future careers.This study supports further consideration of remote REUs, especially given the high cost of in-person REUs and geographic, family, and other constraints experienced by some students

This theme combined with lack ofassociating the utility value of first principles with a practical setting and conceptualizing firstprinciples as mostly content-focused, suggests that there might be a need to change the approachin teaching from first principles. The emphasis on first principles dates back to the creation of theprogram. However, one must also consider the conditions which resulted in such a decision in1934. The Faculty was moving towards conducting more research and perhaps an understandingof
