, refining both the shared language around and approach toteaching sociotechnical integration using design tools as the object lesson.We have come to describe this collective effort as “learning the tool, contextualizing the tool,and teaching the tool as sociotechnical practice.” This planned department-wide effortimplements and theorizes sociotechnical integration from the ground up, via repeated modulesaddressing specific engineering design tools. Candidate tools include those our faculty arealready responsible for teaching, such as SolidWorks CAD modeling and decision matrices, aswell as those we aspire to extend coverage of, such as Arduino microcontrollers and 3-Dprinting. For each tool, our ultimate goal is to collectively co-construct

It is planned to continue with theresearch and collect data from other engineering fields that will allow us to identify theperceptions in their areas and look for differences between them, in addition, it isaspired to collect information in different countries to report on the main differencesand similarities between countries based on the theory of Hofstede's dimensions.References[1] J.

Determine which of the activities in a flipped Dynamics class are most effective, in the students’ opinions, in helping them master the course material. 2. Identify practices that help new instructors who are planning on flipping a Dynamics course, especially those who are planning on using materials developed by somebody else. 3. Identify factors and practices that lead some students to prefer a flipped structure in Dynamics and other students to prefer a traditional structure.Description of the coursesBrief descriptions of how the flipped course has evolved from being in a 100% remoteenvironment to a face-to

The planned transition to a PBL environment beingimplemented by the authors occurred within an introductory aerospace engineering course.Instructors of a similar class at ABET-accredited universities were identified from class offeringslisted online. Aerospace faculty within the authors’ networks who had demonstrated interest inpedagogical practice in aerospace engineering were also identified. Like the PBL experts, thesefaculty were contacted by email and asked (1) to participate in the study, and (2) to recommendany other faculty they think would add value to the study.

However, according to Accountability [8], less than 50 percentof students graduate within 4 years.

Self-efficacy refers to the strength of an individual’s belief in their capabilities to complete tasks andachieve a planned outcome (Bandura, 1997). We quantified students’ self-efficacy in two areas: 1) self-efficacy for tinkering with circuits (Tinkering SE), and 2) self-efficacy for designing new electronic systems (Design SE).Higher self-efficacy

As detailed in an editorial, this change was prompted by LisaBenson’s comments at an ASEE presentation about how journals can play a role in DEI [14].Using the values, attitudes, beliefs approach to analysis, we can characterize a developmentaltrajectory suggested by this requirement. Specifically, while many authors might holdsituationally ascribed values that DEI is important, many may not take this value up as anenduring attitude or a belief that guides their actions as they plan studies, develop learningexperiences, conduct analysis or evaluation, and communicate their results.
