was mentored by experienced researchers at a mid-sized public universitylocated in the western United States. There were 24 students (16 females, and 8 males) from20 institutions across 15 different states, who participated in the program working on 13research projects.One of the questions found within the entry and exit surveys asked each participant to describetheir perception of EED research. Two researchers were involved in the data analysis to findthemes that identify the participants’ understanding of engineering education research. About88% of the participants claimed that their views on EED research have changed afterparticipating in the program. Five themes were identified reflecting perceptions about EEDresearch before and after REU

Ultimately the goal is to better prepareyoung engineers to tackle current and future challenges that have tended to be underemphasizedin traditional engineering curricula.The overall research question for this project is “In what ways can experiential, game-basedapproaches to engineering ethics improve students' ethical reasoning skills?” The authors havedeveloped a suite of game-based ethical interventions

Throughextensive factor analysis, the validity of the survey was established, ensuring its alignment withthe essential elements of PK and PCK. The survey comprises 40 items across 11 domains,reflecting the course modules' targeted pedagogical and leadership outcomes. The instrument'sreliability was affirmed by Cronbach’s alpha coefficients exceeding 0.75 for all domains,highlighting its consistency in measuring GTA pedagogical development.With the participationof 124 engineering GTAs in the pre-survey and 114 completing both pre

subjects were asked to reflect on the approaches to leadership used by others (such asdepartment head, dean, etc.) in their departments and university. The focus of the first set ofquestions was on the subject’s understanding of the concept of leadership both in theory and inpractice. In addition to questions about leadership, we asked a series of questions aboutchange-making processes, such as the process they used themselves, their assessment ofanother’s person’s skills as an agent of change, the process for change making in theirdepartment, and the relationship between formal authority and the process of change. This lastquestion was intended to understand the individual’s views of the importance of formalauthority in making change. The

Education Experiential learning, most simply defined as learning by doing, can occur in multiplecontexts at the university level. For example, many undergraduates have opportunities for hands-on laboratory time, internships, and service-learning programs. Through these experiences,ideally four stages should occur: participating in the experience, reflecting about the experience,conceptualizing (understanding) what they experienced, and applying what they learned in asimilar setting [6]. When bringing experiential learning into the classroom, particularly within acourse focused on engineering design, it can integrate authentic learning experiences intostudents’ plan of study and daily lives [1].

Our goal is to reflect on our lived experiences and inspire future students andacademics to cultivate such communities to broaden participation and enhance researchcapability. We adopt the Community of Practice (CoP) as the theoretical framework and opt forcomparative ethnographic narrative analysis as the method in this paper. Specifically, we focusedon the following dimensions of two communities led by the two authors: (1) the origin andpurpose; (2) the characteristics; and (3) practices. Our findings suggest that

Yet, the opportunities to develop, sustain, and grow one’sengineering identity are not uniformly distributed across students enrolled in engineering programs, nor evenamong those select students offered the opportunities to participate in mentored engineering researchinterventions [4]. Indeed, engineering students from underrepresented and structurally marginalized groups may have feweraccess points to engage with engineering peers, mentors, and professionals prior to and during their collegiatestudies [5-7]. These challenges can compound for students who may be underrepresented on multipledimensions in this field, seeing their personal identities reflected less often in their intended engineering careers(e.g., gender, sexuality

We consistently review our work for logicalfallacies that influence interpretation. In addition to addressing positionality, the initial surveycollected a relatively small sample size for data analysis, given the institutional size.

]. Heart rate variability measures changes in heart rate over time,an indication of autonomic functioning. This variability in heart rate reflects the body’s ability torespond to changes in stimuli; a higher HRV indicates a balanced autonomic nervous system(ANV) that is adaptive to different environments, while a low HRV indicates an imbalancedANV. For individuals with anxiety, this means that the natural “fight or flight” response isoperating in overdrive, resulting in added stress [7]. Sensors used to measure heart rate typically use either Electrocardiography (ECG) orPhotoplethysmography (PPG) technology [7]. ECG relies on the measurement of electricalsignals on the skin's surface to measure HRV. The nerve and muscle cells, including

When instructors do not reflect on the impact of theirpositionality on the student experience, they may inadvertently perpetuate systemic biases andinjustices through their academic policies, teaching strategies, and assessment practices [14].Marginalization within engineering education is further impacted by faculty mindsets related tostudent learning [15].
