questions. Therefore, it is desiredto use a low cost open educational resource (OER) that can be adapted to the needs of eachcourse. One such OER is MyOpenMath, a mathematics based online tool that integrates intocommon learning management systems and is free for both faculty and students. In this paperwe discuss how this tool is currently implemented in a senior capstone design course and a unitoperations laboratory in chemical engineering. This presentation includes characteristics ofMyOpenMath, benefits for instructors, available instructor training, and benefits over usingcurrent quizzes in the Canvas LMS. Not limited to chemical engineering courses, MyOpenMathis applicable to any equation based course. This paper focuses on the faculty

in a session where an interactive survey was administered to capture feedback on theeducational areas identified for future projects. Participants were asked to provide their input,suggest additional areas of need, and rank the proposed educational initiatives on a scale from 1to 5, with 1 being the highest priority. Study results indicated that the most critical needidentified by CJC participants was higher education and scholarship training, as well as hands-ontraining of laboratory/field equipment. These findings will guide future MOM Belize programefforts, ensuring that the program continues to meet the needs of CJC and its community.Key Wordsneeds assessment; focus group; service-learning project; international partner

0.024 W·m−1·K−1 [1], andthus prevents an efficient heat transfer from the processor to the heat sink. Imperfect surfacecontact between the processor and the heat sink is a major limiting factor for creating newelectronics. Thermal Interface Materials (TIMs) are thermally conductive materials used toimprove surface contact with a thermally conductive material, displacing the air and increasinginterfacial heat transfer between the heat sink and processor and this prevents overheating of thesystem.The objective was to produce repeatable and reliable results using a setup, which costssignificantly less than commercial testers. This would make TIM testing more accessible to highschool laboratories and developing nations. The goal of this project was

from instructors and collaborate with peers, enhancing their overall learningexperience. In environmental engineering, practical skills are crucial. A study [5] showed thatstudents with higher attendance rates performed better in laboratory components of the course,suggesting that attendance facilitated the acquisition of practical skills essential for the field.Several factors can impact attendance rates, including student motivation, course design, andexternal commitments. Studies have shown that flexible course delivery methods, such as hybridmodels, can improve attendance by accommodating diverse student needs [6]. Despite the clearlink between attendance and performance, some studies have faced challenges such as self-reporting bias in

Active learning, endorsed byorganizations like SEFI and ABET, enhances student engagement and performance byconnecting theoretical concepts to practical experiences [1][2]. It also improves understanding,retention, and problem-solving skills [3], and when combined with laboratory

the student body is receiving an education that approaches critical thinking in aholistic manner (e.g., formulating problems, working in a laboratory setting, mastery ofgraphical/written/verbal communication). Institutions collect a series of assessments targetingthese individual student outcomes (SOs) with the goal of determining how well the student bodycan achieve the goals prescribed by ABET. This process provides a thorough overview ofstudent attainment in the SOs from the perspective of the institution and its individual faculty,but it lacks any substantive measure of student self-efficacy.Self-efficacy is a term used to describe how well an individual believes they can accomplish atask [1].

Two examples are [11] and [12]. Therein, implementationof video modules into classrooms has shown students responded favorably and were engaging andcomprehensive as they aided course content understanding.
