Accordingly, the indicator PI-1.3 may stipulate that students demonstrate thecorrect approach on data analysis and visualization (i.e., projection, scale, etc.) to produce thebest solution for the GIS problem. The descriptions for each performance level should use anaction verb, which is measurable, and clearly states the desired quality level. This example aimsto demonstrates that simply using LMS, without exploiting its capabilities on a rigorousassessment approach, does not in itself guarantee that analysis and evaluation of test scores leadto effective and comprehensive assessment of student learning outcomes.

prior work done in measuring spatialvisualization skills, our work involves contributions concerning international engineeringeducation.We are embarking on this project to develop a test from scratch rather than using existingassessment tools. Before making our own, we want to learn from previous projects what doesand does not work in existing assessment tools with a critical lens. Often, the tests currently usedin literature and the subsequent course or curriculum appear to result in score gains of studentsafter the intervention [3]. We are questioning whether this could be a result of the test notaccurately capturing the spatial visualization skills initially, whether this reflects ceiling/flooreffect in statistical data analyses, or if gains

With a projected increase in STEM jobs of 8 percent by 2029 (ahigher rate than non-STEM jobs [2]) there is a need to address the equitable cultivation of aSTEM workforce that is diverse and culturally relevant.In order to broaden the interest of young learners in STEM, many educators are including art intheir STEM activities (making STEAM the new acronym.) This inclusionary practice has thepotential to encourage a more diverse population of learners to become engaged in STEMpractices [3].

The second task is learning how graduate school operates and whatthey should expect from their life in graduate school as a student. Similarly, the third task isdescribed as learning how their projected profession works and determining how they feel aboutmoving in this direction post-graduation.

For example, one of the main priorities graduatestudents discussed as in conflict to their interdisciplinary scholar identity development is theexpectation to have publications in certain disciplinary-acclaimed journals and to specifically bethe first author on those publications. In 2020, Student A said, So I was thinking about the IR program, and I think it is a little bit hard to be motivated, because PhD students need to be the first author of their dissertation. And everyone is PhD student so … their priority cannot be that interdisciplinary project. And I get also faculty have similar feeling, because
