an exhaustive study, works exploring stress induced bygamification demonstrated that subjective stress can lead to conditions such as anxiety, hostility,and depression, all of which are harmful [31]. If leaderboards are implemented without the meansof hiding personal identities, there arises the issues of a transparency of individual performance.Students can algorithmically deduce the status of their peers, which has numerous ethical and so-cial issues. Gamification is often based on a one-size-fits-all approach (consistency across badges, quests,etc.), which may not be appropriate for everyone. This lack of customization on a personal levelcan lead to different groups of students losing interest. Some may find the games too difficult

The first-year 1composition curriculum emphasizes the rhetorical situation (writer, audience, purpose, andcontext), rhetorical appeals (logical, ethical, and emotional), and genre awareness in the writingprocess [1]. Most first-year composition courses are taught and/or administrated by English orCommunication departments.Although engineering undergraduates learn academic writing in first-year composition or othergeneral education writing courses, they often struggle to transfer the writing knowledge fromthose courses to engineering courses [2].

In Canada, the Canadian EngineeringAccreditation Board has been emphasizing that equity and ethics be embedded in the curriculumthrough their accreditation visits. This required several programs within our institution to work onmethods that can be included to make students more aware of equity issues and assess theirunderstanding on the above subjects.This paper discusses how courses were changed to include equity as part of the curriculum.

further research into how students learn to frame engineering designproblems and what role framing plays in their professional formation.Introduction and Research PurposeDeveloping the ability to design solutions to problems is key for engineering students learning tobe professionals [1]. Many design experiences happen in the first-year and senior year courses,though increasingly they are being incorporated into courses along the entire program [2]–[4].Instructors must make many decisions when developing design challenges, not all of which areclear. For instance, in senior capstone design, faculty commonly contend with ABETrequirements, ethics, project management, appropriate scope, appropriate technical content, andteam dynamics [5]–[7]. With

However, simply askingstudents to submit exam corrections or to complete alternative problems is vulnerable toacademic dishonesty, which violates ethical codes and diminishes effectiveness. On the otherextreme, individually coaching students is not feasible for most faculty. Similarly, alternativegrading schemes or replacing traditional exams with mixed assessment methods rarely

They then iteratively defined the learning challenges from the student perspective,came up with ideas to address their challenges, and generated low-fidelity prototypes to describea reimagined learning experience.

Thefeedback received from participants was then used to improve prototypes that could beimplemented in the classroom.Figure 1: A storyboard illustrates each phase of the research study that used a design thinkingapproach to identify and address student learning challenges.The protocol was approved by the McMaster Research Ethics Board.ParticipantsThree students who had previously

[1] Due to their complexity, the social, ethical, and justice elements ofenvironmental issues often take a secondary role to more economic or policy-based motivations(loss of product, emission/release standards, etc.) in these discussions, which may result in theunintentional erasure or lack of apparent attention to the socially disadvantaged groups whom aredisproportionately affected.

The culturalinfluence on the product should be incorporated into the conceptual stage of design, and shouldcarefully consider what aspects of the culture are going to be included in the product. Rather thanbeing superficial additions to the product, the cultural aspects should influence the design, usage,and purpose of the product. In fact, the product itself can be

Two mechanical engineering majors, two electrical engineering majors, and two computer sciencemajors were recruited by each student who volunteered to be a team leader during the first week of thecourse. It was important that these team leaders demonstrated a good work ethic and provided clarity totheir team when it came to meeting certain deadlines within the class. During the lab portion of the course,students were engaged in tasks such as assembling the robot’s mechanical chassis and electronics hull

In this paper, we will have reflections on a particular section of thecourse with 14 students, where students’ engineering-related experience varied from noexperience to professional certificates and/or similar design project experience in their highschools.

Prototyping isless common in Chemical and Civil Engineering, where working prototypes are impracticallylarge for students to build, but most other programs require some type of build. Increasingly,capstone programs are exploring approaches to product development and design using an Agilemethodology (e.g., [17]–[19]), which drives teams to prototype early, delivering functionality ata steady pace through the project. Underlying this is a desire to move students from paper

The goal is to identify information that can help facilitate access to industrypractitioners that can complement the practical needs of construction engineering students andunderstand the practical course-support needs of construction engineering instructors. The surveywas administered online, and 293 engineering instructors and 143 industry practitioners filled itout. In addition, we secured ethical clearance through our IRB office. Data were analyzed usingdescriptive statistics, and some of the responses were analyzed by different variables to see ifthere were any important differences to show between participants.
