to as the digitalrevolution. Arguably the adoption of digital technologies, integration of robotics and automationare some of the key drivers of the third-industrial revolution. Although the third-industrialrevolution is still evolving, the invention of the internet and widespread use of digitaltechnologies and satellite communication systems fueled an entirely new period in the industrialrevolution. This new period which closely overlaps with the digital revolution is the fourthindustrial revolution, commonly came to be known as Industry 4.0 (I4.0). Figure 1 shows atimeline of evolution of industrial revolution.The term Industry 4.0 (I4.0) was first coined by the German government in 2011 as a part oftheir High-Tech Strategy for Germany [8

Studies on racialclimates at PWIs suggested the issues were deep-seated and influential in perpetuating theadverse encounters for students of Color and persuading PWIs’ values. To much chagrin, theseconditions preserve the lack of multicultural policies and substantive practices which saturatecampus culture and translate into the classroom [8].

theseopportunities to students.To help better prepare students for work in the academy, self-efficacy [2] plays an important rolein determining their confidence to carry out research. This means that students must havepositive perceptions of their abilities and capabilities in order to achieve success within the REUprogram. Self-efficacy also includes recovering from challenges and perceived failure in order tolearn and improve in their capabilities and confidence. Overcoming these challenges is key tohelping students grow in their self-efficacy around research activities such as preparing andpresenting research forums and poster sessions, working with experienced faculty to conductresearch, and integrating as a member of the research community.This paper

Different kinds of symbolic information requiredifferent kinds of processing and place different demands on the students [30]. Similarly,different success criteria for solving mathematics and engineering problem may require adifferent level of evaluating strategies. Solving an engineering problem often requires anunderstanding of the context, understanding the issues and ways to evaluate the process. Studentsneed to identify more involved criteria and constraints in solving engineering problems.The findings of the study may carry implications for teaching and learning improvement in anacademic setting.

U.S. are finally heading the many calls to include sociotechnicalthinking–grappling with issues of power, history, and culture–throughout the undergraduateengineering curriculum. While non-purely-technical topics have historically been relegated toseparate courses, universities are now working to integrate sociotechnical content in coursespreviously considered to be purely technical. Researchers have varying motivations for thisfocus, including to better prepare students for engineering practice, which is inherentlysociotechnical [1]; to increase the sense of belonging of historically excluded students, who aremore likely to be interested in the social aspects [2]; and to create better societal outcomes [3-5].Attempts to disrupt the social
