racism.Collaborative problem-solving experience is a key quality sought by most employers. It is welldocumented that effective teamwork can facilitate career progression, often leads to moreinnovative solutions, and has the potential to increase job satisfaction. Throughout theirundergraduate education, students are tasked with team-based projects to provide this requiredexperience, however they are rarely provided with the skills to be a successful team member andleader. Ambrose et al. [3] highlight that in addition to content knowledge, teamwork furtherrequires higher-order qualitative skills such as task delegation, conflict resolution, and contentsynthesis. Furthermore, research shows that stereotypes and biases towards women and studentsof color can

Homework and exam problems all have a single correctsolution. Besides the fact that many real-world problems do not have a single answer, many real-world problems are not as well-defined as they are in the classroom

This necessitates a revaluationand revision of current engineering curricula and pedagogical approaches. However, achievingthis objective will require a significant overhaul of the current pedagogical approach inengineering education, as it does not adequately equip students with the competencies requiredfor success [17]. In the last 20 years, interdisciplinary learning [18]; education for systemsthinking and design [19]; project-based learning [20]; and the development of STEAM [21]courses have all been calls for engineering reform.1.2 Summary of relevant reviewsImplementing design thinking in education has been a

Samples were analyzed using GC-MS (gas chromatography–massspectrometry) after a hexane extraction following ASTM D5175-91. Mass spectra wereevaluated in comparison to known standards to determine whether PCBs were present. PCBlevels were below detection limits (0.14 to 1.10 ng/L) for all samples.
