Continuous ImprovementContinuous improvement should be a part of every program and course and having the benefit ofdesigning the program with a clean sheet gave us the opportunity to integrate continuousimprovement from the start, beginning with our courses. To assist, we created a slide format tosummarize what we learned and that we also use to discuss our new insights with our DataScience Advisory Council. For example, Figure 1, below, is an example for the course forstudents not ready for Calculus I. Our faculty completes them every year for their course, andwe use the feedback to improve the course and the student experience.

participants are very valuable and will be incorporatedinto the project and its implementation in the future.Individual Reflections ResultsThe individual reflections from the 112 participants were analyzed following the process forthematic analysis described by Braun and Clark [13]. Two researchers independently reviewedthe data to become familiar with it and then identified themes based on the literature to use as theframework for the thematic analysis to measure student motivation, curiosity, connections, andmaking skills. The two researchers then independently coded the data by labeling excerpt(s) fromeach reflection that reflected a theme and recording it in a spreadsheet. The analysis results fromboth researchers were compared and any

Given the smallnumber of women in the computing programs and the number of those students who participatedin the initiatives, the number of potential respondents was low. Future work includes addingqualitative analysis to the research considering the small number of participants in the study.Additionally, this study did not look to identify the impact of each initiative individually, andthereby can be a limitation. However, this study investigated the initiatives in aggregate. Theresults of this study support [12]’s assertion for the need of multi-pronged institutionalapproaches to

In addition, in versions of the oral exams that wereintended to give the students extra credit, students found that having a second chance to provetheir knowledge increased their motivation to learn. This highlighted to them that the class wasabout increasing their knowledge rather than penalizing them for their mistakes. D. Did oral exams increase students' understanding of the subject matter?In the end-of-quarter survey, students were asked whether they believe the oral exams increasedtheir understanding of the subject matter. Overall, the majority of students found the oralassessment(s) increased their understanding of the subject matter. 72.1% of the valid responsesanswered “agree/strongly agree” to the prompt, while nearly 21.4

These interactions go beyond learning communication skills.They reinforce the professional obligation to account for public concerns, needs and desires, andunderstanding of the non-technical impacts of their engineering decisions.Similarly, project teams can interact effectively virtually, but there is no substitute for the “watercooler” discussions around a design problem, and interactions in a conference room when theentire team is developing the design concept and selecting the alternative(s) to pursue further.Some lessons that round out a civil engineer’s professional development must involve face-to-face interactions with their project team, clients, contractors, and the public.

You may exaggerate the observed deformation for the purpose of illustration clarity. Address the following prompts based on the activity above: 1. For each applied load, which segment(s) of the foam rod showed deformation? 2. If more than one segment of the rod shows deformation for a given load case, which segment shows the largest elongation, and which segment shows the smallest (nonzero) elongation? What about their strain? 3. What additional questions do you have about this activity and/or topic? Box 2
