This is indeed a very interesting idea.Analysis of Student Self-Reflection DataStudent self-reflection is critical in developing their understanding of how they learn andgauging the efficiency and impact of the knowledge building approach. Hence, following thesubmission of their final report, students were asked to: (1) write several paragraphs about whatthey learned, why they were more engaged, the challenges they encountered and how theytackled them, and the usefulness of various classroom activities and tools and (2) rate the qualityof their learning experience in reference to the course learning objectives. In their writing,students often cited that the knowledge-building project reinforced their understanding of

ConcepTests evaluate the readers’ understanding by integrating the concepts intoquestions that force the learners to evaluate their own arguments for certain multiple-choiceanswers while selecting one final answer. Thus, the learners’ considered reasoning before selectingan answer allows for evaluation of conceptual understanding. However, few ConcepTests havebeen developed for Process Control courses.As an extra credit assignment in a Process Control course at Northeastern University, studentswere given the opportunity to write ConcepTest questions of their own for use with

While a number of models exist to describe it (e.g., [47]),Lave and Wenger’s [48] Community of Practice (CoP) model has emerged as a usefulframework for understanding the engineering profession [e.g., 27, 49, 50]. This model is basedon historical apprenticeship models and the identity transformation often resulting from thisprocess. This study has adopted the CoP model to explore professional identity. The CoP modelframes a profession as a community of experts surrounded by

Next, EBSCOHost was used to search thefollowing databases: ERIC, Academic Search Ultimate, and APA PsychInfo in tandem withGoogle Scholar. Finally, a search was conducted on ASEE’s PEER database. Key words forsearching these databases were developed by selecting common key words from the previouslyobtained literature, as well as through consultation with a university librarian whose expertise isin educational research.

hosted onCoCalc [18], students were encouraged to only have one or two members actually writing code,one projecting the content to the table monitor, while the entire group discussed how to solve theproblem. This helped prevent groups from simply "splitting" the notebook amongst themselves,defeating the point of a collaborative environment. Of the 14 sessions of this pilot course, 9 werereserved for the collaborative notebooks while the rest were dedicated to a project, where studentswould propose their own application of linear algebra and present it to their peers. Examples offinal projects included image classifiers and stock market predictors. Due to the restrictionsimposed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the course moved to a fully online format

Active learning [2],increased class time [3], recitation [4], project-based learning [5], and peer tutoring [6] are just afew of the methods chosen to enhance traditional lecture-based courses. However, studies forsome of these methods point to mixed results when integrated into the main Statics course [3],[5]. Some show that the results are statistically insignificant when compared to previous lecture-based approaches, and that any improvement can be attributed to factors such as studentattendance, participation, and course satisfaction [5], [7], [8].Additionally, active learning and other innovative pedagogies have barriers which preventinstructors from embracing

Weearnestly call this “hosting STS parties”; during the course, as they grapple with the intensity andintractability of the large-scale problems that technology has perpetuated (misinformation,polarization, war, white supremacy) they learn that their agency is related to their ability tosurface difficult questions with their peers, subordinates, or superiors.

The purpose of this paper is to explore thelandscape of women’s epistemologies in recent EER. Our guiding research question is: “Howhave women’s epistemologies been studied in published engineering education research?”To begin this literature review, we searched through the ASEE conference proceedings database(also known as PEER) for student women’s epistemologies from 2016 to 2021. We chose thistime frame to focus on current research of epistemologies in EER.
