—instead ofas a final step once results have been obtained and analyzed”, RT is more effective for use bypolicymakers and communities.[3], [8] The third finding (2.3) is that “effective community-level translation methods place an emphasis on using a variety of interactive and participatorystrategies aimed at soliciting, valuing, and engaging with community.” [8] These could go fromauthentic participatory action research (PAR) strategies in the planning of research, tocommunity-owned workshops, to k-12 education modules to inform local teachers and studentsof the effects of research, to name a few.

The intent is to reduce student workload by incorporating PLTL with existingassessments vice requiring additional assignments. The authors plan to scale this work beyondthe three previously identified courses.ConclusionThe results so far have been encouraging and show the peer support intervention has positiveeffects on student grades. The course averages indicate that students involved with PLTLactivities have higher course averages an indicator of academic success that has potential to leadto persistence in engineering pathways compared to those students not involved with PLTLactivities.

However, this area has limited research to provideeasy and robust approaches to analyzing carbon footprint and drive research and experimentation design.Note that research and educational activity in higher education differs from industrial settings in that theprocess usually operates at the most efficient point to maximize profits. In higher education,teaching/research activities aim to understand specific processes or fulfill the identified learning outcomes,so operation conditions are often varied and can be less economical. Teaching laboratories are essential for higher education, providing students with hands-onexperience and practical application of theoretical knowledge

In addition, this illustrates that the PLSG method helps all students, including transfer students, pass the course at higher rates. The inclusion of other factors pertaining to students’ starting course competency could potentially further elucidate these results. The research team plans to include demographic data and examine how transfer status is affected by study group participation in later studies.

Future plans include developing afaculty development workshop that will explain how to design an OEMP, why they are beneficialto students’ education and development as an engineer, and how to implement them in theclassroom. The goal of this workshop will be to encourage professors to use open-endedproblems in engineering science courses and give their students an opportunity to practiceengineering judgment.
