, questions, expert guidance, and coaching (Adams et al., 2017).More specifically, Northeastern’s IE Capstone program integrates multiple opportunities forteams to receive feedback. Regular assignments, weekly advisor meetings, frequent clientinteractions, coordinator check-in sessions, open class Q&A, peer-to-peer feedback, and writtenfaculty evaluations during presentations all serve as sources of feedback. The writing coordinatormeets with every team once a term to provide detailed feedback on the writing assignments, andassure the teams are poised to create high-quality documents. The writing program is describedin a recent Capstone Conference paper (McManus, 2022). Further, all teams are stronglyencouraged to seek out faculty members for

gender identities that have been historically underrepresented in engineering programs. Using participatory action research (PAR) and qualitative research methods, this study explores whether engaging students in a series of focus groups can help disrupt negative teamwork interactions and encourage inclusive student engagement with team projects in an Introduction to Mechanical Engineering class. All participants in this study are engineering students at a college of engineering in New England, and include 6 undergraduates in the focus groups and two undergraduates (one junior, one senior) who served as peer facilitators. This work-in-progress paper describes the process and challenges associated with recruiting participants, training student

create an inclusive learningenvironment that empowers neurodiverse learners. It was attempted to achieve this goal byimproving the accessibility of the content, promoting active (collaborative) learning, engagingstudents by using real world examples, and offering a variety of assessments in this course.Actions such as adding captions to the pre-recorded videos, posting class notes, recording andlive streaming the class, and using the class eBook were made to enhance the courseaccessibility.Active learning such as think-pair-share strategy, collaborative problem-solving activities, andbrainstorming were offered during class time to enhance peer-to-peer interactions, align students’progress with the class schedule, and improve student engagement

Computer Engineering [20] andare broken down 135 knowledge units, further divided into a total of 908 learning outcomes.This question helped the TF define important knowledge that students should master beforegraduating in order to prepare them for their future careers in Industry 5.0.At the time of this writing, we received seven responses from our survey, a very small numberthat is hard to draw a lot of firm conclusions from. Nonetheless, we plan to expand the number ofrespondents to be statistically more significant and include a larger variety of companies andrepresentative positions within the same. The responses are from engineers from severalcompanies, including Apple, The MathWorks, Verizon, Toast, Randstad Technologies, andAltaeros. The
