Thesereflections provide a perspective that is not commonly found in the current literature, and theirconclusions provide insight into where future research efforts could be focused.IntroductionThe United States Congress has made many efforts to increase the number of womxn andunderrepresented minorities in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) [1-2]. In this panel paper, the word “womxn” is referencing the intersectional feminist spelling of theword “woman”; this spelling seeks to avoid the suggestion of sexism and dualisms of gender andsexuality, to be inclusive to

Interaction with professorsfrom a student’s chosen major in the initial semesters of higher education might be advantageousin getting them involved and integrated into the program they have chosen. A report by thePresident’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology published in 2012, suggested thatthe first two years of college are the most critical to the retention and recruitment of STEMmajors [1]. Often curriculums have introductory courses for each program, and these aretypically taught wholly or in part by professors who are experts in a student’s field of study.However, there is often only a brief amount of time in courses

into a tactile test, called the Tactile MentalCutting Test (TMCT), designed to allow for tactile interpretation, instead of visual interpretation,of 3-D objects and their planar cuts. The TMCT allows all persons, including BLV populations,access to a tool that can quantify spatial ability. To increase the TMCT’s utility, the originalformat of the 25-question TMCT was split into two subtests (A & B), each containing 12questions. In 2021, the TMCT’s reliability in measuring spatial constructs of rotation, cuttingplane, and proportion in BLV populations was found to be good [1]. However, to increase theprecision of the results found in our pilot analysis, the research team desired a larger sample size.This paper presents a continued

at colleges and universities worldwide. When paired with a hands-on laboratoryexperience, the foundational concepts of materials science can be made tangible to students. In alecture-only course, however, the relevance of course content to real-world application is oftenlost, and student understanding can suffer. This is because simple coverage of material by aninstructor is not sufficient for student learning [1]. Research has shown that students are moremotivated to learn when knowledge of course content can be connected to the solution to apractical problem [2]. To this end, it has been suggested that project-based learning (PBL) is aviable tool to support life-long learning and student understanding [3].Prince and Felder [2] define PBL

Therefore, the authors specifically focus on these methods to clarify challenging conceptsin the course.Literature ReviewThe effort to find existing small-scale physical models and interactive 3-D digital tools on timberdesign topics was not as fruitful as the authors had hoped.

design courses are typically project-based, where students work inteams to address a “customer-provided” problem and develop real working solutions. This typeof project-based learning requires that students synthesize knowledge and apply skills to anopen-ended design problem. The open-ended nature of “customer-provided” problems thatstudents encounter in capstone design courses contrasts with the structured and constrained“instructor-provided” problems seen in their earlier coursework [1], [2]. Solving complex,unstructured problems is an essential skill for a working engineer, but it requires a differentskillset than that which is needed to solve the standard textbook problems typically seen inclassrooms [2]–[6].
