During this activity participants were asked to list positive aspects of theprogram (+) and suggested changes (Δ). All feedback was anonymous. Additionally, theorganizers met weekly to discuss how each session went and plan future sessions whileincorporating any feedback received.In the spring of 2023, we asked an evaluator to follow up with the participants of the pilotprogram to determine how their job search had progressed since completing the program and getfeedback on the program after having participated in a faculty job search.

, [6] found that during atransition from quarters to semesters, students faced increased anxiety levels about graduating ontime, new degree requirements, and credit conversions. As another example, there is fear ofadditional faculty workload under the new system [7].Initial curriculum development We approached the curriculum design using a backward design approach [8], [9]. Thisapproach has three stages: 1. Identify design results, 2. Determine acceptable evidence, and 3.Plan learning experiences and instruction. It includes establishing curricular priorities ofknowledge and skills of enduring understanding, important to know and do, and worth beingfamiliar with. The design results that we identified were the goals of the curriculum

balancing as well asgenerating and receiving the UART communication. Once the base BMS kit had been selected,the next step is to select components to integrate wireless communication. Initial Designs includea plan to establish a wireless network. To do this an ESP32 board was chosen to both translatethe UART signal from the BMS as well as establish a wireless mesh network for communication.Each BMS pack coupled the TLE9012AQU BMS board with its own ESP32. The BMS boardscan power themselves through the pack directly, however the ESP32 will not work as well with sucha large range of voltage. In this case, a buck converter will be connected to power each ESP32with a stable voltage despite any changes in pack voltage. Each battery pack will then

By cultivating an entrepreneurial mindset, engineeringstudents can learn to be more creative, adaptable, and resilient in their professional and personal livesregardless of whether they choose to become entrepreneurs or intrapreneurs. Because of the seeminglynatural overlap between makerspace skill development and EML, faculty development efforts that mergethe two frameworks have been created.

We used a “backward design” approach with threegeneral steps: identify the desired results of the modules (i.e., what will students be able to doafter engaging with the module), determine acceptable evidence (i.e., how can we assess studentunderstanding), and plan learning activities (i.e., plan the activities students will engage in in themodules) [8].

The framework development included identifying K–12 data science elements and then validating element suitability for young students. Six cycled steps were identified: identifying a problem, questioning, imagining and planning, collecting, analyzing, and story sharing. This paper also presents examples of data decision problems and demonstrates use of a proposed Insight- Detective method with a plan worksheet for Dataying.IntroductionThe expected growth of data science careers worldwide over the next ten years means thatstudents of all ages

to answer important questions such as: “Why is thesuccess rate of transfer students low?” and “Why do some transfer students persist to graduation,whereas many others do not?” According to the literature, transfer students fall into two categoriesthat need different kinds of guidance to succeed in a new institution [11], [12]. The first categoryof transfer students includes those who pre-plan the transfer before getting admission into a com-munity college [13], [14], [15], [16]. This category often includes students who choose to takegeneral education courses or earn an associate degree at a community college before transferringto a 4-year institution (often because of the lower cost of tuition).

One key benefit of empoweringteachers with technological tools is that it can help level the playing field regardingeducational access.Technology can provide new opportunities for students who may need access to specificresources or information. It facilitates students to attend online lectures/webinars and otherlearning resources from any experts (national/international), thus providing learning beyondboundaries.

The tech demo committee was a consistent groupof 4-5 faculty who established requirements for the tech demo and evaluated the team’sperformance during the technical demonstration. The first tech demo helps ensure that studentsorder parts and start assembly (of at least the critical sub-components) of the end product. Onepractical benefit is that delays from out-of-stock parts, inappropriate designs and flawedprocesses are addressed earlier, and thus less likely to delay the project. In addition, new andreplacement parts with long shipping times can often be ordered over winter break, improvingoverall time management.

One of the main strategies to enhance the performance of the construction isthe use of digital technologies, such as Building Information Modeling. This technology enablessimultaneous site planning and building element production, which can reduce project deliverytime by 30% to 50% [2]. Nonetheless, many AEC firms have found it difficult to use this tooldue to cultural resistance and implementation costs [3]. Therefore, given the advantages ofdigitalization, there is a need to uncover solutions to break the boundaries of employing BIM inbuilding design projects and construction sites.For educators

Cognitive learning refers to acquiring knowledge at increasinglevels of complexity, as in Bloom’s Taxonomy [3], and is measured through course assessments(e.g., exams).

covered by the team project or by individual assignments.Common themes emerged, and are summarized in Table 1. Since these topics are mostfrequently covered, capstone instructors must generally feel that they are important. The topicsthemselves are not TCs, but they are a promising set of topics within which to look for TCs.Communication, elements of design process (planning/scheduling, concept generation, anddecision making), and teamwork emerged as common themes. Communication is a topic thatmany students struggle with, and good communication enables success in nearly all other aspectsof capstone design. It was identified by Capstone-to-Work researchers ([5], [6]) as a topic thatstudents struggle with at work and one where they rely on their
