Assessment – three interdisciplinary programming projects.Rather than relying solely on final grades, we examined project-based assessments as a proxy forcritical thinking development. While direct critical thinking evaluations were not conducted,student reflections and instructor observations indicated improved problem-solving engagement.Future iterations will incorporate validated assessment tools such as pre/post-tests or structuredrubrics for critical thinking evaluation. 3.

The panelfurther explained how a systems approach differentiates the traditional value stream (TVS) fromthe algorithmic value stream (AVS) and how current law only protects the former and not thelatter, partly because AVS had not previously been defined. Artists were then invited to completean online questionnaire designed to help them formulate a way to document the processes theyuse to develop their patterns of creativity.

All authors struggled to open their Zotero libraries and experienced challenges in sharing the citations among the group of co-authors. While performing searches in literature databases, all the authors learned that the interfaces of the resources had changed since they had last performed any significant searches. They all had to consult with interface help information and revise their searches to meet the requirements of each interface. This served as a reminder to the authors that the tools and skills related to literature

In order to get to more interesting design and project-based problems we have to firstcover a few circuits basics, such as resistive circuits and voltage and current dividers. Next, webring up time-dependent circuits through R-C charging, which then naturally leads toapplications of NE555. In NE555 timer circuits, charging of R-C networks and use of voltagedividers are essential features.However, the math and physics required for explaining these topics is relatively straightforwardand can be built intuitively. This approach is reflected in the selection of lab topics which arethen followed by applications, such as using a timer IC NE555

If the model’s training data reflects existingbiases in engineering education—such as the underrepresentation of certain groups in leadershiproles—it may reinforce rather than challenge these disparities. Additionally, the AI may struggleto fairly distribute tasks among students with varying levels of prior experience, potentiallyleading to unequal learning opportunities.
