from strengthening their problem-solving skills, exposing engineeringstudents to such coding experience confers attributes of systems thinking, creativity and deeperunderstanding of processes on students [10]. Additionally, such exposure enhances researchcapabilities of graduate students as it offers the opportunity to experiment new ideas.Pedagogically, computer program scripts written for teaching and learning purposes could bedeployed as tools to engage learners in simulation-based reflection on their performance in manualcomputations [11]. The teaching and learning of reservoir simulation, as a petroleum engineeringcourse module, stands to benefit a lot from this workflow coding approach. The reservoirsimulation body of knowledge is

engineering education research and practice, theories reflecting the experiences ofmultiply marginalized students remain elusive in engineering education. Oftentimes, multiplymarginalized students’ experiences are explored through identifying particular marginalizedidentities within study participants and applying theories of engineering education to theirexperiences. Other approaches situating certain standpoint theories emerge from single-identitytraditions that identify specific identities and deepen understandings of only those facets ofidentities relevant to those theories. While these approaches are often immensely helpful indeveloping new knowledge about the experiences of marginalized students, they often do notaccurately reflect the unique

Using this tool, students can submit the initial seminarplanning to be evaluated by teachers and at the same time do peer review of other groupsactivities. They can ask questions and make reflections about other groups activities sodeveloping critical thinking during this process before submitting the final seminarpresentation. The project has attended expectations, resulting in better academic performance,as well as contributing to the development of the competencies and skills that were aimed tobe developed.IntroductionThe Physics subject is applied to the First-Year students of the Engineering

institution andthe community college. The number of students was small because the mechanical engineering program isrelatively new and many students had internships. There were two women and several first generationstudents in the pilot class. All the students were engineering students, mostly rising juniors and seniors. We selected wave energy for our research focus since the project did not require any prior knowledge that would create prerequisite barriers. We worked hard to find institutional funding to supplement student fees, particularly for community college students. Key topics in the course included: ● Design process and iteration ● Construction of multiple prototypes ● Literature review ● Reflective research journals

Burchfield et al.[12] evaluated teamwork in undergraduate engineering courses where they offered interpersonaland intercultural communication-based teamwork training. By embedding interculturalcommunication notions into their course activities, they minimized the number of dysfunctionalteams compared to prior experiences and gained positive feedback from students. They alsoconducted a qualitative analysis of students’ self-reflections which revealed an emphasis on theimportance of diversity in engineering and teamwork.Huang et al.

Thetheory states that through experience and reflection on various experiences, individuals areguided to construct their understanding and knowledge of the world [11]. Experiment-centeredpedagogy integrates problem-based activities and constructivist education by allowing studentsto actively engage in the learning process by drawing on their prior experiences andunderstanding to generate new information or understanding.According to constructivism, learning takes place under the following four assumptions: 1. Learning involves active cognitive processing. 2. Learning is adaptive. 3. Learning is subjective, not objective

As a result, social and cognitiveregulating factors are also an important determinant for a group of individuals to effectivelyengage in discourse (and thereby co-construct).Self-Regulation and Co-RegulationPrior to co-regulation, one or more individuals co-constructing must engage in at least some self-regulation. Self-regulation, as described by Zimmerman [25], [26] is a cyclical processcomposed of three phases: forethought (including analyzing the task, and acting according togoals/motivation), performance (including deploying strategies and making intermediate stepsobservable), and reflection (including evaluating the processes and results, and

However,students also indicate the importance of having mentors with whom they share gender or racialidentity [16]. The mentoring constructs examined in this study include maintaining effectivecommunication, aligning expectations, assessing understanding, fostering independence, andpromoting professional development, which might not fully reflect or describe all the constructsthat mentors who mentor racially marginalized students might need to be competent in. Forexample, mentors who are engaged in cross-race and cross-gender mentoring might not alwaysfully understand the racial and gendered experiences of their mentees who are of another raceand/or gender

There was also a related query about the highest degree the student planned toobtain. Six of the queries employed a ten-point rating scale while the other two were multiple-choice questions from which one response was to be selected. Summaries of the responses ineach topic area follow.The differences between the IRAP and R2R cohorts are clearly reflected in the ratings submittedfor the queries that used ten-point scales (Table 4).

The clustering of majors in departments can be extendedto programs jointly offered by multiple departments. A degree jointly offered by twodepartments would be similar to other majors offered by the two sponsoring departments, even ifthe majors from the sponsoring departments differed from each other. For example, GeorgiaTech’s degree in Computational Media is jointly offered by the College of Computing and theSchool of Literature, Media, and Communication.

for a lesser cost [11].Some textbooks have the option of renting a digital version as well. Students may also be piratingtextbooks online. Nonetheless, this continual increase in textbook cost has resulted in decreasedtextbook purchases. A survey of 1,067 students in 2016 found 66% of students claiming they didnot purchase the required textbook for a given class [12]. Another study from 2020 yielded similarresults with 65% of students claiming they did not buy a required textbook for class due to costs[7]. Cost may not be the only issue at fault, as there is still a lack of usage from students who doacquire the required textbook.Lack of textbook usage is reflected in a 2008 study where undergraduate finance students weresurveyed on the

This mismatch cultivates a system ofexclusion for minoritized students: students are led to think they can succeed during outreach,only to be told they are not allowed in during recruitment.Holloway et al. [44] listed 11 major factors used to admit or deny students during the collegeapplication review process by IHEs in the years 2006-2010: (1) “subject matter expectations (thenumber of semesters of math, science, English, social studies, and foreign language that eachstudent is required to have taken in high school), (2) overall high school grade point average(GPA) (3) core high school GPA (English, math, science, foreign language, and social studiesclasses

The finer grained analysis showed that certain elements of ABETcriteria and Walker’s capabilities had little overlap within these broader categories. For exampleWalker’s capability of practical reason includes ‘being able to construct a personal life project in anuncertain world’ which includes the element of knowing what to do, the medieval concept of synderesis[40]. The overlap of this element of Walker’s practical reason capability with ABET was much less, only0.04 f, and reflects the fact that the quality of a defined product or service does not include

The program did prepare a reflection report looking at five other programs before starting.Our a priori expectation was that this is a parallel process and a once-in-a-generation opportunityto take a fresh holistic look at the curriculum. It was surprising that both programs interviewedtold us not to do that. There was not time in the conversion schedule to do that

Self-efficacycan influence students at the beginning of their studies in selecting their major and at thecompletion of their studies by increasing their perceived career options [6]. Finally, self-efficacyis also associated with better mental health in students, specifically seen in reduced anxietylevels in students with higher self-efficacy [7].Clearly, the beneficial practices and traits associated with self-efficacy indicate it as a desiredcharacteristic in students. However, self-efficacy is not simply a static personal attribute thatshould be selected for in admissions processes.

areversed in this and many other tools that are far more advanced?Dr. Watford later comments on how curricular change does not need to happen all at once.Indeed, change an assignment, change a module, do this over time. She also reflects on howstudents do not do their homework. Why? Because faculty do not have the time to grade theassignments. She goes on to suggest the use of digital technologies to not only submit homework,but to grade it. She is certain that the practice of homework and feedback can only help.
