Within engineeringeducation, this reflective practice by the student enhances learning and problem solving. Thereare numerous classroom structures or techniques we can use to build these skills. ChatGPTprovides interesting ways for a student to engage with material, and may further a student’sunderstanding of their own learning processes, problem-solving strategies, and perhaps identifyknowledge gaps.The process of initially re-engaging with the test question without the assistance of AI, provided ameans to both reflect on their own work, as well as explore more traditional means of correctingor expanding their original code outside the

The literature in project management education supports this underlying personalbelief. “Preparing students for professional practice is enhanced by the use of ‘authentic’ tasksand assessments that reflect the practices and outputs encountered in the profession” [1]. Inorder to be authentic, it needs to be a real executable project.

This study aims to contribute to the discourse within engineering education by examining thecorrelation between the alignment of student and instructor learning styles and its impact onstudent academic performance. The Silverman-Felder ILS, a well-established tool, delineateslearning styles across four dimensions: active/reflective, verbal/visual, sensing/intuitive, andsequential/global. We operationalize alignment as the proximity in four-dimensional space betweena student's ILS score and that of their instructor. Initial findings based on a cohort of 300 Cadets atthe United

According to Gilbert [3], compassion is a sensitivity to suffering in oneselfand others and a steadfast commitment to alleviate and prevent that suffering. Drawing from the ethicalframework proposed by Campbell [5], which defines care as "active compassion, empathy, and concernfor the well-being of other living (and in some cases non-living) things" [p. 112], this paper explorescompassion as an essential component of ethical engineering practice.While engineering ethics has traditionally emphasized the importance of reflecting on the broaderconsequences of technological advancements, compassion extends beyond cognitive reflection.
