those students that,despite completing MATH 101 satisfactorily, they did not approve MATH 201. Among them,we can mention: (i) the violation of academic integrity when completing the activities in MATH101, (ii) a student may require more time and additional practice than the one provided byMATH 101 to grasp a concept, and (iii) the lack of motivation and engagement, among others.Further study is required to examine these peculiar cases. Constructing a predictive model is partof our future research plan; this will provide us with more insights regarding the probability ofsuccess in MATH 201 after a student has completed MATH 101.The diagnostic test segmentation into the four areas of MATH 101 allows us to explore furtherand establish its impact

For all students, the courseintroduces basic coastal engineering topics, including wave mechanics, nearshore hydrodynamics,large-scale hydrodynamics, sediment transport, shoreline change, wave forces, and coastalstructures. The course also includes a multi-week team project focused on developing a shorelineprotection plan. Changes to the course aimed at increasing teamwork elements were implemented in Spring2022. In this semester, student enrollment was 36, and the instructor was joined by a co-instructorparticipating in a teaching certificate program who assisted with the course modifications.

A range oftopic options allowed students autonomy in their choice and ownership over their project, whileat the same time keeping assessment manageable.The project was highly scaffolded by design. This served multiple purposes. First, completingand submitting regular deliverables kept students on track and allowed for regular instructorfeedback on low-stakes assignments. Second, the organization of deliverables served as a modelof expert thinking. The role of undergraduate education is not simply to teach facts, but to trainexperts. One skill experts possess is the ability to plan a task and develop an effective approachto solving a complex problem [1]. A project is simply a series of tasks that are undertaken

Advance planning and resource arrangement are thusimportant for such courses. Also, the capital and operating cost of 3DP, especially for smalleruniversities, has to be considered during course design and to the extent possible, redundancyshould be added.Pedagogical Choices:The selected pedagogical approaches generally worked well during the course

This involves identifying constraints and success criteria, reviewingrelevant scientific information, coming up with design solutions using the MATLAB tool,building prototypes, and creating a plan for testing. Finally, teams must consider how to improvetheir design and effectively communicate their solution to relevant parties.In this activity, the students are prompted by their teacher to create a water filter on theircamping trip to substitute for the filter they left at home using only materials found in theirbackpack

Experienced Engineers’ ApproachesAbstractEngineering design processes often focus on beginning with a problem and considering multiplepossible solutions, following problem-first design practices. Alternatively, design processes canstart with a solution and diverge to identify potential problem applications it can solve beforeconverging on one problem application to pursue, termed “solution mapping.” Most design toolsand strategies have been developed to support problem-first design practices. Tools andstrategies to support solution mapping have been underexplored. We plan to expand on our priorwork and build a tool to support solution mapping by examining engineering practitioners’approaches. Experienced engineers gain expertise as they spend more

Masking may be defined as covering or modifying one’sneurodivergent behaviors to blend in with neurotypical people [50]. Camouflaging to pass asneurotypical is associated with decreased mental health among neurodivergent individuals [51,52]. Nancy, who reported an auditory processing disorder (APD) and an anxiety disorder,described how daily efforts to mask her neurodiversity in front of her advisor contribute to hermental health challenges: I do this masking where I put on that I'm very together for - in front of her and I have all these plans, and my calendar is all marked, but then my day to day, I don't feel
