PowerPoint,Collaborative Learning, and Formative Assessments. Engineering mentors found these seminarsexposed them to different teaching techniques, including ways to grab student attention, providepositive reinforcement, and be mindful of students’ ownership. They felt that the experienceeffectively improved their ability to deliver a presentation and to engage the audience, as well asgrew their confidence in public speaking. For example, one engineering mentor shared that,“Learning different teaching strategies is definitely beneficial.” Another engineering mentorprovided a specific example, that “I remember I brought up the idea of why don't we just call onstudents? But then I believe one of the other education students reminded me that some

community development has allowed him to develop strong bonds with the communities he works with, which motivates him to continue contributing to their betterment. Under the guidance of Prof. Saha, he has also mentored over 450 undergraduate and graduate students for their internships at RuTAG during 2021 and 2022, helping to foster the next genera- tion of community-minded engineers. Ashish’s work at RuTAG has given him a deep understanding of the challenges faced by rural communities, and his research aims to provide sustainable solutions that address issues such as social acceptance, women’s empowerment, and economic and ergonomic improvements. His recent interactions with Purdue’s EPICS teams have inspired him to
