ethical followershipmerits exploration and to distinguish it from ethical voice. The literature shows that voice is oneof several followership behaviors that may be used to promote ethical behavior or inhibitunethical behavior at work. Uhl-Bien et al. (2014) frame voice as one of many proactivebehaviors that “assess the creative and deliberate ways that employees plan and act on theirenvironment to influence, change, and alter it in ways they see fit” (p. 93). Uhl-Bien et al. (2014)also refer to other followership behaviors like obedience, resistance, dissent, and feedbackseeking.Research Questions and Methods In response to the leader-centric view represented in ethical leadership literature, andgiven limited research available on ethical

During theperiod, a total of seventy-four students participated from 2008 to 2018 in programs based inSweden, the Netherlands and Austria, twenty-five in Brazil based programs [44], and overtwenty in Morocco. All programs were modeled after the REU programs funded by the NSF.Toyohashi, Japan - At Toyohashi University of Technology (TUT) research projects for studentswill include areas such as Chemistry, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Science, BiomedicalScience/Engineering, Material Science and Nanotechnology.Beijing, China - A partnership with the

there is a course management challenge, and it is incumbent upon the instructor to ensurethat there are support mechanisms for students who may be struggling with the course materials.In addition to the training of peer tutors and TAs, in my case this has meant ensuring that wheneverI am teaching CS 1, I have accounted for extra time needed for the course. In the CS 1 course studentsare required to meet with me 1-on-1 which helps me assess student progress as well as strategize,often with student agency, how to help each student succeed. Active learning and peer learningtechniques are also critical to ensuring there is a greater opportunity for students to learn from eachother and form a learning community. In the future, I also plan to

Each iteration is improved upon based onfeedback from the previous iteration.”“Iterative design is characterized by a process in which the design is refined and improved througha series of multiple iterations. Each iteration, the design is improved incrementally based onfeedback and testing from previous iterations.”“More specifically, the iterative design methodology begins with an initial planning step, whereinthe engineering requirements for a new device are developed and enumerated.”“Essentially, each subsequent stage of the iteration process only occurs after the current stagehas been made successful. This leads to much more efficient development of technologies andensures the final
that encouraged participants to express their thoughts andexperiences freely and openly.The structure of the interview was meticulously designed to evaluate four critical constructs thatare pivotal in understanding students' engagement with data science within the chemicalengineering curriculum [20]. These constructs are: 1. Interest: Participants' enthusiasm and curiosity about data science. 2. Career Aspirations: How participants see data science fitting into their future professional plans. 3. Perceived Value: The importance participants attribute to data science skills in the context of their education and future career in chemical engineering. 4. Self-Efficacy: Participants' confidence in their ability to learn and apply

Furthermore, the results revealed thatconflicts with family and/or friends regarding one’s future career plans were identified as theleast significant reason contributing to stress. Figure 3. Key Factors Contributing to Personal/Family-Related Stress Among Participants Within the category of Academic-related stressors, as depicted in Figure 4, “DiscussingMental Health Openness”, and “Mentor Discussion Comfort” were the significant reasons thataffect participants’ stress levels the most, with average scores of 2.86 and 2.71, respectively. Thisfinding highlights the importance of creating an environment where individuals feel comfortableand supported in talking openly about their mental health

This entails raising awareness about the social, economic, andpolitical obstacles faced by women and girls and equipping engineers with the tools to respondcreatively and critically in the dismantling of unjust barriers. (Kantharajah, 2022). In the context of humanitarian engineering and critical consciousness, learning aboutgenerative themes of poverty, sexual violence against girls, and other systemic inequities allowstudents to think about how they would plan, create, and design technologies to solve thoseproblems (Kantharajah, 2022). Encouraging students to learn about and reflect on theseinequities fosters critical reflection and motivates them to envision their roles in driving positivechange through their agency and commitment to
approaches and studentcognitive development. An additional challenge associated with ChatGPT usage, as argued in [22],lies in the potential for learners to rely on AI models for task completion excessively. This over-reliance can potentially impact their critical thinking and problem-solving skills, fostering a senseof lethargy and indifference towards independent investigation. ChatGPT stands as a versatile tool with the potential not only to aid students in their learningjourneys but also to offer valuable assistance to tutors and educators across a spectrum ofapplications. In [23], diverse ways educators can harness this tool in teaching have been delineated.Notably, it proves beneficial in personalized learning, lesson planning, language
lateral transfers, which made this group underrepresented. Having a small samplesize reduced the number of ego networks that could be analyzed and made it difficult to make acomparison of the social networks between the two types of transfer students. In addition, therewas a lack of specific subpopulations, with respect to lateral and vertical transfer students andwhether they were either in-state or out-of-state transfers. This might have skewed the egonetworks by not treating each subpopulation as an entity on its own. These limitations can befurther addressed with more individualized survey questions and in the next round of dataanalysis.For the next phase of this study we plan to separate the different subpopulations of transferstudents and

Such discrepancy could be capturing the plethora of other factors that areknown to influence engineering identity and sense of belonging [17].Finally, our analysis is only descriptive and not causal in nature. We plan to implementalternative methods to explore the potential of causality, as well as dive deeper into thedescriptions of students’ experiences in the course through qualitative interviews. Other futureanalysis of this data will include a breakdown of these trends by subgroups, paying specialattention to those with marginalized identities. While sample sizes are limited at this point, thesurvey remains open to strengthen such numbers.ConclusionIn this study we conducted a retrospective

Implications and Future WorkLooking ahead, we aim to integrate this course into the standard first-semester curriculum acrossthe involved engineering departments. This goal will require careful coordination and facultysupport to ensure curriculum alignment among the three programs and foster a collaborativeteaching environment. For summer 2024, plans are underway to host two course sessions,expand faculty participation in teaching the course, and recruit incoming sophomores. Based oninitial feedback, we are refining some aspects of the curricular activities to enhance
to make engineering education more inclusive in different ways.For instance, Rooney (2020) developed a workshop that helped faculty work through topics suchas implicit bias, growth mindset, interpersonal and teamwork skills, and other evidence-basedpractices that can promote inclusivity. Further, Dewsbury & Brame (2019) developed aninteractive guide that would help instructors develop inclusive teaching practices. They emphasizethe role of instructor empathy and self-awareness as well as the kinds of classroom climates theycreate. Relatedly, Hunter et al. (2010) lay out a professional development plan for lab instructionthat emphasizes diversity, equity, and inclusion in STEM. They focus on diversity in terms oflearning styles and
,when asked about other identifying characteristics of engineers, participants talked aboutsupplementary connections and experiences that further defined them as engineers.The findings from this study lead us to believe that students move through a set of learning andexperience milestones throughout their academic career, initiated and supplemented by socialconnections. As students find themselves going in a different direction than originally planned,they compensate for a lack of experience in one area with additional experience or interpersonalconnections in another. Students’ perceptions of success stemmed from a culmination ofexperiences and connections that are valued by them as individuals. While many studentsfollowed a prescribed

Even during the summer, there can be a narrow window of time when students can be inthe community. This is a well known challenge of HE projects more generally [20].Several participants found that offering multi-year projects alleviated the time pressure. In thisapproach, the project is divided into phases. Each student cohort considers only one phase of theproject. This then naturally requires a longer view of the project and

Becauseof this, teaching students’ visual literacy, which means the capacity to decode, understand andcreate graphic images or messages, is of utmost importance, especially for those who plan theinformation, like instructors.Visual literacy has been defined in several ways in the literature. These definitions originated fromseveral fields, and those fields helped provide the groundwork for visual literacy. Hortin [8]defined visual literacy in 1980 as the capacity to use and comprehend visuals and to study andthink conceptually. In 1973, Case Gant coined the term “visual literacy” to describe a collectionof skills that enable individuals to understand, produce, and read graphical
