Endeavour staff was experiencing in and out of the classroom. Also, the researchers felt thatthe high frequency of the survey delivery (five times over the two-year period of the program)was leading the students to not reflect on the survey questions as deeply as was desired sincethey had seen the questions so many times before. Therefore, modifications were continuouslybeing made to the original study design with the first three cohorts (e.g., a shift to focus groupsas opposed to Liker-scale surveys). Although the initial survey data would still prove useful forachieving specific aim 3 (an engagement dashboard), engagement measures have since moved tomore qualitative methods of data collection [8]. Work is still being done by the staff to pull in

We discussed how to foster psychological safety by asking for input: • Ask for input from everyone. • Encourage multiple ideas from people. • Encourage out-of-the-box ideas.We also discussed how to foster psychological safety in how a person responds to teammembers’ contributions: • Affirm the value of contributions as they are made. • Reflect back the potential value of an idea.To practice this

One student suggested that providing freeinternet access or offering the ability to borrow or rent a university computer could ensure equalaccess for all. Another student mentioned that paying for internet services can be prohibitivelyexpensive, especially for those who do not live close to campus due to financial constraints.Therefore, remote lab developers should prioritize creating tools that are less dependent onresources that may be inaccessible to some students. This would help alleviate the digitalinequality barrier and promote more equitable access to remote lab

3083Similarly, using either Pearson’s Chi-Squared test for independence or Fisher’s exact test (p-value 0.027 or 0.023 respectively) resulted in rejecting the null hypothesis that gender isindependent of student’s outcome (Pass or FW). Analysis supports that gender and the studentoutcome are not independent. Specifically, female students have a significantly higher passingrate. Predicting student success based on ethnicity, gender, and all the interactions between thosevariables using a logistic regression model is significantly better than a null model (p-value <9.83(10)-16 using a drop in deviance test). However, in this model no individual factor wassignificant in predicting student success (all p-values > 0.05).These findings reflect

Anecdotally,one group that worked on the wind turbines suggested that the wind turbines be painted purplesince insects stay away from ultraviolet light, and therefore the birds would not be attracted toflying into the wind turbines, thus reducing bird kills. Connecting color to bird kills in a fluidmechanics course is at the “Create” level of Bloom’s Taxonomy.ConclusionThe course grades have shown significant improvement with the implementation of a semester-long group project, while the final exam grades do not reflect this. However, with three yearsrunning of the course with the project, it has been noted by the instructors that the students maynot retain each lecture topic or the material on the comprehensive final exam, but

That meant cultivating the core aspects of the liberal arts model,especially a whole-person approach to collegiate development, a reflective framework forstudents to grow as learners and people, and the ability and desire to be a lifelong learner.Engineering is traditionally a professional degree, thus there was initial wariness about the abilityfor the new program to integrate into the greater college. The pilot engineering science degreeprimarily drew on existing classes and was a subset of the physics department. The revised BAand new BS require more new classes and provide a professional degree.

Although there is no definition in theliterature about how many areas should be assessed, it can be observed in this process that mapswere created that reveal the coordinators' appropriation of thecore points of the curriculum and thespecific competences of each area.Furthermore, it also allowed the closest programs to also havemaps that reflect this proximity. It is thus observed the importance, for the implementation of a learning
