for RDM education for their students[6], the same faculty also acknowledgethat graduate students were not prepared to manage data effectively[4] but that they as facultycould not provide adequate guidance or instruction and that they would benefit from experts“helping us to do it right.” Carlson’s work also points out multiple faculty perceivedshortcomings of RDM: self-directed student learning in the laboratory through trial and error,absence of formal policies governing data in the lab, and lack of formal training in datamanagement.[5] RDM education for graduate students has taken a variety of approaches. Theseapproaches range on the intensity and commitment scale from no-credit seminars and workshopsto for-credit stand-alone

Sustainabil- ity Practices, energy management of Data Centers and to establish Sustainable strategies for enterprises. He is an Affiliate Researcher at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Berkeley, CA, focusing on the energy efficiency of IT Equipment in a Data Centers. As a means of promoting student-centric learning, Prof. Radhakrishnan has successfully introduced games in to his sustainability classes where students demonstrate the 3s of sustainability, namely, Environment, Economics and Equity, through games. Stu- dents learn about conservation (energy, water, waste, equity, etc.) through games and quantifying the results. He has published papers on this subject and presented them in conferences.

Dr. Blake Everett Johnson received his doctorate in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2012. Dr. Johnson now works as a lecturer and lab manager in the De- partment of Mechanical Science and Engineering at the University of Illinois. While remaining interested and active in the field of experimental fluid mechanics, he has chosen to spend most of his professional energy on improving the teaching of thermo/fluids laboratory courses through the development of en- gaging and intellectually-stimulating laboratory exercises, as well as improving introductory mechanics education and design courses in the MechSE department.Dr. Matthew D.

students work with faculty members atthe host university, they typically work most closely on a day-to-day basis with graduate studentor postdoctoral mentors who work in the faculty member’s laboratory. The majority of theengineering mentorship literature is focused on faculty as mentors, not graduate student mentorsor postdoctoral researchers. Generally, much of the existing literature relating to mentorship in engineering exploresthe mentor’s experience (typically focusing on faculty as mentors) (Dolan & Johnson, 2009;Mena & Schmitz, 2013; Revelo & Loui, 2016; Tsai, Kotys-Schwartz, Louie, Ferguson, & Berg,2012, 2013) rather than the mentee’s experience (Ahn, 2014; Ahn, Cox, Diefes-Dux, &Capobianco, 2013; Faurot, Doe

conceptualize the relationship between research and the creative process after participating in the REU program? 3. How do faculty members incorporate concepts of the creative process into the laboratory experiences of the REU students? Do the approaches used by faculty influence how students’ conceptualize research and the creative process?This study builds on the previous work by Huffstickler, et al. (2017) by focusing more closely onstudents’ understanding of research and its relationship to the creative process. In addition,changes were made in the 2017 program to better train supervising faculty on the relationshipbetween the creative process and the scientific method. In addition, because graduate students areprimarily

Activities to keep a writing support learning community engagedThere are four activities described below, a Peer Review Service, Writing and ReviewingContests, Writing Blitzes, and Writing Support Groups; these make up the core activities that areregularly offered at our institution at large, as writing support in our learning community. Wehave also launched an initiative of establishing these activities (and others) within a singleengineering laboratory setting; the particulars of this laboratory initiative are discussed in aseparate paper at this conference [14].
