find efficient solutionsto the problem. When this logical sequence of steps or instructions are developed to form aneffective procedure, this process can be automated to solve similar problems. Debugging refersto identifying and fixing errors in the algorithm, both during the development of the algorithmand when students attempt to transfer the algorithm to a new context. Iteration is the process ofrevisiting effective algorithms to improve their efficiency until an optimum state is reached.Generalization occurs when the algorithms and CT skills are transferred to effectively addressproblems in other domains. Because iteration and generalization require the problem context toallow sufficient time for reflection and modification of the solution

Buildingupon these pilot efforts, we are actively expanding adoption of the APEX program in severalways. First, we have begun holding summer and winter training workshops for faculty at severaladditional community colleges. Second, we are refining and improving the FLC experience aswe initiate new FLCs with these institutional partners. Finally, we will continue to assess theprogram’s efficacy through a research plan that evaluates student and faculty experiences,allowing us to optimize

techniques. A few reasons could explain the results. One, as the students spend a disproportionateamount of time using analytical solutions, they are more likely to recall instances where theirknowledge was limited. Conversely, good programming technique is not utilized heavily in thecore curriculum, so they do not have the chance to continuously struggle with new material, andthus have an inflated sense of knowledge concerning the material. Another reason could be that,it is possible that the coding-heavy nature of the course enabled the students to remember goodprogramming practices, and this is reflected in the subsequent semesters. The lowest self-rating was given to the question “I can code my own numerical solutionsto PDEs

. In Survey S4.2, students were asked how much they would like to sacrifice for a job position inthe renewable energy industry compared to a traditional company. Sacrifices on salary difference,driving distance, and driving time were given as response options with varying acceptance levels.The sacrifice levels are mapped to a 0-6 scale so that a maximum average score might reflect theirintention to sacrifice more for a renewable job option. The average score for this response is 3.67,indicating that they are willing to sacrifice their salary/driving distance/time to a reasonable extentfor a job in the renewable industry.

Abstract In order to inform a discussion of silenced communities within systemic processes, we examine the ASEE Diversity Recognition Program (ADRP) as a step towards amplifying re- flexive and critical activities already occurring within ASEE. In light of recent concern over the ADRP as a means of disrupting minority marginalization in Engineering Education1 , we reflect on the origins of the program as well as how to proactively shift the program’s cultural context to one of greater criticality about Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) in engineering, broadly. To investigate this more deeply, our research questions for this study were: What have other organizations used to anoint2 member

Term hours completed refer to the credit hours that students passed and completed ina semester, and do not reflect students’ initial credit hour enrollment. We selected both GPA andterm hours completed as measurement metrics because SW-PWI uses these variables to measurestudent persistence and to predict students’ retention and graduation.Second, we requested and received access to a retention dashboard at SW-PWI.

However, themajority of validation studies in engineering education do not look at how items function forsubgroups of learners, particularly different racial, ethnic, and cultural groups [1]. Evenframeworks designed to improve the validity evidence provided regarding an assessment’s score,still leave out evaluations of fairness [2]–[4]. To gain a better understanding of how wellengineering assessment contexts are reflective of the diverse experiences of engineering studentsin the U.S., this work-in-progress paper explores the contexts of concept inventories from asociocultural perspective.

I felt like I was just correcting mathematical errors, perhaps this method will improve my scrutiny over time but it is hard to tell from one problem set.Students were similarly neutral to positive in their comments at the end of the semester, thoughfar fewer focused on the mechanics of working through the self-revision process. Most studentsfocused their comments instead on the outcomes of the process: The self-revised method reduced study time and helped me work through my thought process on mistakes, helping me to solidify how to overcome those particular problems. I was better able to reflect on my mistakes using this method. This is because, for the regular problem sets, I rarely look at

This would be to the benefit of both faculty and students as it wouldreduce the burden on faculty to provide feedback to all students in a large group while alsoincreasing the feedback and timeliness of the feedback that students receive. Arguably for anassessment mechanism the most important factors considered are the reliability and validityof the assessment tool. The validity of ACJ refers to the validity of the rank-order that isproduced and is directly tied to the cohort of judges which is assembled [18]. The reliabilityof ACJ sessions is described by the Scale Separation Reliability (SSR) coefficient which, inthe context of comparative judgement, has strong indications that it reflects an

Simple exposure to adiverse environment in the classroom does not fully prepare students to succeed in a similar real-world environment.In order to best prepare students for post-graduation roles, we must incorporate DEI into ourcurriculum. Education in these issues promotes their awareness of the topic and allows them toexplore their own implicit bias in a safe environment. Practicing our teaching with similarthought, we must assess the student outcomes in a manner which is reflective of our ownunderstanding of these issues and aims to minimize performance gaps due to disparities betweenstudents.Systems Engineering is an ideal platform to promote student awareness of global inequities inthe world as well as explore

The importance of CT is reflected in the growing interest in exploringits potential role in various fields, including engineering. While CT in engineering education hasbeen discussed in previous research, there needs to be more understanding of how CT may differin the context of different engineering disciplines. Rich qualitative research on how studentsengage in CT and engineering can show how they can support each other [5].
