Paper ID #45383NSF S-STEM Funded iAM Program: Lessons Learned Implementing a CollaborativeSTEM Workshop for Community College and University PartnersProf. Margaret A Hunter, Hofstra University Margaret Hunter,Ph.D., is an Associate Professor and Associate Chair of Engineering at Hofstra University in the Fred DeMatteir School of Engineering and Appplied Science. She has been teaching in the Civil Engineering program for 25 years. Her educational research focuses on broadening the participation in enigineering. This has included both formal and informal learning activites in pre-college, developing a course framework to aid
-levelthemes that capture the essence of the interview corpus, but it performed poorly in mapping theconcepts to specific files. Therefore, a hybrid approach that leverages the strengths of both AIand human expertise may be the most effective strategy for analyzing complex qualitative data ineducational research.AcknowledgmentThis material is based upon work supported by the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF)under Grant No. (DUE 2120936).

Ancestry, Technical Talent, and Learning Process. While AI-based learning showspromise for certain student groups, peer and internet-based reviews also play a vital role infostering engagement and knowledge retention. To this end, students should be wary of entirelyrelying on AI, as backgrounds, learning preferences, and deep analysis may be hurdles instead ofolder, standard approaches. Future research should explore the interactions between thesevariables in greater detail, perhaps using larger datasets and different learning environments.References[1] Ng, D. T. K., Leung, J. K.

may serve as an indicator that a student is struggling academically. An outreach program to connect with the most underperforming students and having them participate in events might help them.

This suggests that the fAEC-KLM was effective in boostingconfidence and interest in AEC among African American middle school girls. C. fAEC-KLM

students that contained a question thatcould have been answered by reading the syllabus. The occurrences were tallied and totaled at theend of the 12-week 2023 session. A revised approach to syllabus review was developed within the technical contract reviewframework which demands the reviewer pays attention to the details and ensures all aspects arecompliant to the intent(s). The instructor incorporated aspects of this framework into anassessment assigned after students were instructed to read the syllabus (Farmer & Hu, 2018). Thisassessment included select-response and open-ended questions that guided the student in thepractice of technical contract review.

Introduction Three-dimensional (3D) printing or additive manufacturing is utilized to manufacture products in industries of aerospace, automotive, and medical [1]. One example is General Electric (GE)’s decision to deploy 3D printers to manufacture nozzles for its LEAP engines. GE Aviation projects have printed more than 30,000 fuel nozzle tips in 2018 [2]. Manufacturing by 3D printing is experiencing an explosive
condensed project is critical for providing student with a wholistic view of what must beconsidered when developing engineering solutions, in accordance with ABET student outcomes2 and 4. Exposure to human subject research such as the project described here, is critical forfuture engineers and scientists, as it provides a framework for considering human factors in theirfuture engineering and scientific work.References [1] K.

promote the apprenticeship program and preparestudents to apply. The following procedure was used to prepare the apprenticeship cohort underdiscussion here. During the summer prior to the apprenticeship, a full list of all students in theaccepted major(s) was requested from the school and was filtered by GPA and course creditcompletion. Then the remaining students were individually reviewed for program eligibility, andindividual outreach was conducted over the summer to form a cohort of interested and eligibleapprenticeship applicants.Toward the beginning of the Fall semester, a member of Career Services responsible forcoordinating the apprenticeship program began conducting individual meetings with students.These sessions were typically 45
