some of the desired changesto the schedule and curriculum lagged, such as the integration of multiple disciplines into thiscommon first-year plan, they did introduce methods of grouping students together to allow themto familiarize themselves with their peers and build relationships [3]. An example is the conceptof block scheduling, where students would register for defined set of classes, meaning theywould consistently be surrounded by their peers taking the same courses. While they did alsoprovide non-blocked schedule options for non-traditional students, the focus on building peer-to-peer relationships was more heavily emphasized on the block-scheduled courses [3]. Studentscould be introduced to topics in a more comfortable and familiar

The first year of this study, the 2021-2022 academic year, as detailed at ASEE’s AnnualConference in June 2022, saw the development of the inclusive engineering classroom practicesmenu as well as the pilot of the inclusive learning communities for faculty across three partnerinstitutions. The student and faculty assessment plans were surveys and short-format interviewsfor both groups. This poster will focus on the survey and interview data that has been collectedthus far, and the website that has been developed to further engage faculty, institutions, andpartners interested in the study.

Thus, female students could have less time for schoolwork than malestudents.To confirm our belief, we plan to conduct another survey to better understand the impact ofgender roles and social implications on female students’ confidence in their academicperformance. Also, we plan to continue to collect the data in early programming courses as weapproach the end of the COVID-19 pandemic. Then, we will compare them with the current data.In addition, we plan to organize a female CS student support group to share their experiences.ConclusionBased on the data and the survey result, we believe that the academic performance of femalestudents is comparable to that of male students’ performance. However, we believe that genderroles and their social

This study recommends enhanced mentoring andindividuated academic planning for ADVs, conducted by academic professionals trained inGreen Zone allyship and aware of campus and local resources, as well as campus staff andfaculty who are veterans themselves and willing to be a resource.Educators, regardless of their civilian or military backgrounds, all want to serve the needs ofstudent veterans. Understanding the perceptual challenges that ADV students may face improvesour abilities as faculty to advocate for and advise them. Faculty are also better positioned toeducate other students and faculty, and
determine which global competenciesmay have been enhanced in the students after the completion of the program. The study discusseshow strategic programmatic planning and execution can foster certain competencies inengineering students.2. Literature ReviewGlobal competencies are the ability to examine local, global, and intercultural issues, understandand appreciate different perspectives and world views, interact successfully and respectfully withothers, and take responsible action toward sustainability and collective well-being.[6]International short-term study abroad programs are designed to offer experiential learningopportunities that students may not get in a traditional classroom setting and can help developunderstanding of global

The first question, “Do you have any LEED accreditation (Certification)?”,offered “I am planning to get accredited” and “I am not interested” as response options. Figure 1shows that “I am planning to get accredited” received a higher response rate from constructionmanagement students at 33.33%, compared to 29.41% from architecture students.Correspondingly, the option “I am not interested” received a higher response rate
whilethey were operating the equipment.The pilot version of the VR module for phase 1 (machining process) was implemented in theMCEG 3103 manufacturing processes laboratory in the FA 2022 semester. Including SP 2023semester, forty-six students used the VR module for the traditional machining process training.The app was also showcased in multiple outreach activities and regional meetings.Evaluation and AssessmentThe overall evaluation plan of this project has three focuses: in what directions and to whatextent student participants' (1) content knowledge, (2) communication skills, (3) lifelong learningskills, (4) teamwork skills change (or evolve) over the course of their participation in the projectactivities. Authors are in the process of
frequent error messages, communication issuesbetween microprocessor and computer, operating system incompatibilities, and other software-related difficulties. Even with successful configuration, software operation involves frequentcrashes, non-intuitive and disorganized data layout, and limited options for efficient datavisualization. Moreover, the lack of an intuitive, experimenter-focused interface walkingstudents through customizable yet user friendly software options remain as a challenge. It isevident that this and the other previously described challenges have been selected as the mainaims in the optimization plan presented in the next section.Optimization PlanAim 1: Integrated Circuit to Reduce Electrical Setup TimeThis aim focuses on
regular communication and guidance.Third, faculty provide the student teams with more than typical design instruction. Permanentprogram faculty provide student teams with traditional instruction in engineering designtechniques, project management, branding, marketing, and planning; all generic designinstruction that all teams will value. Program staff provide logistic support such as facilitatingtravel to and from industry sponsor sites, purchasing, and fulfilling manufacturing needs. Inaddition, each team is guided by a faculty coach. The coach is an engineering faculty withparticular expertise in the primary project area for each time to provide specific guidance, andindeed sometimes instruction, to achieve project success.Program StructureThe
the shorter videos enabled them tofocus on one concept at a time while taking breaks in between the videos. On the other hand, 15%of the participants went in favor of longer videos and wished that all modules were offered in along video format. Their reasoning was mainly about longer videos enabled them to plan a strongercommitment to finish the module while connecting all concepts together without the need to jumpbetween videos or spreading them over multiple viewing sessions. Finally, 46% of the participantsindicated that they did not find a significant difference in preparing and studying long videos vs.the shorter one. They acknowledged that the count and length of videos of each module were rightfor the nature of the presented topics

Also, some students attempted to make acomputer visual model of what the whole exhibit would look like.In the second semester, the VIP team focused on developing higher fidelity prototypes for mostof the projects and ended the semester with demonstrations of the projects. The instructors hadexpected these demonstrations to be cohesive demonstrations by each sub team, however, theyended up being done project-by-project, in series by individuals or pairs of students.

Massive Online Open Course (MOOC).The intent of GVV is not to persuade people to be more ethical. Instead, it starts from thepremise that most people want to act on their values, but also want their actions to be successfuland effective. Rather than focusing on ethical analysis, the GVV curriculum focuses onimplementation and teaches students to ask themselves: “What if I were going to act on myvalues? What would I say and do? How could I be most effective?” Students learn to do this bydeveloping action plans and practicing scripts they compose.The seven principles, or “pillars,” of GVV guide students through the process of thinking aboutwhat is at stake when addressing ethically challenging situations.

Becoming an engineer is a challenging task for any young person.However, it turns out that they may be facing an even greater task: developing the ability tocommunicate their ideas to others clearly [1]. Having a good idea is where engineering innovationstarts; however, having the ability to communicate that idea to others is a
the student starts to have problems completing the work, then you can either (a) help them or (b) you know that the student is not what you expected. If you give a new student a project that you don't know how to complete, then you don't know if it is the student or the problem.He also advises asking this question: “‘and how will you evaluate that?’ There are lots of greatresearch ideas, but if we can't evaluate it, we can't get a paper published on it.”Be sure to talk with your student and set goals for each year they are in the graduate program.An Individual Development Plan (IDP) can be used [Marcus 2016]. This involves identifyingcareer goals, assessing one’s own knowledge, and discussing how to overcome weaknesses

The university’s stated diversity aims include “awareness of the structural sources,consequences, and

In addition, the researchers observed six instructional sessions (twoto four hours in duration) during the camps to record field notes that informed interviewquestions and identified relevant thematic elements; these observations also providedtriangulation for interpreting the interviews. In this way, the researchers could analyze theinstructors’ challenges and instructional decision making as they formatively processed theirpedagogical effectiveness. Student artifacts were observed during the classroom observations tounderstand the curricular fidelity of the planned activities [38-40].

In addition, engineers must cater tothree types of readers when preparing their technical documents: those who only read the text,visual readers who only look at graphs, figures and tables and the rest who read the text and thevisuals [5]. Engineering programs planning for ABET accreditation visits need to identify how to incorporate technical writing into their curriculum and develop a plan to assess the “ability tocommunicate effectively with a range of audience”. This paper presents a case study where students learn the basics of and practice client-focused technical writing in a junior

preparatory coding sessions between 2021 and 2022 showed mixed results.Although student perceptions of the coding sessions improved in 2022, there are several areas toimprove upon for the 2023 cohort. These improvements can be classified into a ‘curricular’ and a‘logistical’ category. Curricular improvements relate to the coding activities themselves –specifically, a clear relevance of the coding exercises to the student’s project needs to bepresented to the students when the exercises are assigned. In the past, when designing the codingexercises, the PI and host labs focused on providing students with a list of ‘typical’bioinformatics packages used by the lab instead of targeted ones based on the planned project.Moving forward, the PI will attempt
