.” Influences on Attitudes towards STEM. It is important to understand students’perspectives of learning STEM subjects. As they expressed, math was a big challenge for them,because it was related to science, engineering, and other STEM subjects. The concepts andproblems in math (e.g. algebra and fractions) were difficult to understand and were lessinteresting than other subjects. While, in science learning, students had troubles to comprehendthe concepts, integrate the knowledge, and solve complicated problems. However, studentsbelieved their capabilities to get good grades and push forward in math and science learning. After participating in two-weeks STEAM camp, students indicated the cooperativelearning environment was an important factor

IPEDS(Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System) standards, we use the 6-year point toinvestigate outcomes and only include students for whom six calendar years of data aftermatriculation are available. Including all the data for each student would bias the results in favorof earlier cohorts who have had more time to return and using a longer window would eliminatethe more recent cohorts from the study. There are several groups of students for whom the 6-yearpoint is not an accurate representation of their final educational outcome: those who arecontinuing at year 6, but eventually drop out (we know of 58 in engineering and 24 in othermajors), and those who have stopped out in year 6 but later returned (we know of 145 whoreturned to

curriculum than any individual factor.First-year college performance and subsequent retention and successSimilar to how a student’s high school achievement and experiences may be indicative of theirfirst-year success, first-semester GPA also has been found to correlate with retention and GPA atgraduation. Students with low grades at the start of their undergraduate studies have been shownto be less likely to be retained within an institution of higher education [4]. For example, a studyconducted at the University of Alabama reported a 48% higher graduation rate for students whohad a first-semester GPA higher than 3.00 compared to those with a first-semester GPA less than2.25 [6].

tools and e-books focus on a singlesubject with multiple modules explaining each case, requiring vast amount of effort from an expertto create such modules. As a result, the static information is unable to operate optimally in newenvironments, because the system is unable to adapt uniquely to each students’ learning behaviorsand teachers’ input. Thus, to overcome this issue, the DIME system integrates modern machinelearning techniques, which allow the graphical display of information to adapt automatically basedon external and internal feedback.The way the DIME system responds to these two types of feedback differentiates it from previoussystems. Internal feedback refers to the students’ physical interaction with the DIME map, such asclicking

programming languages like Haskelland Ada. The complexity of hardware descriptions coupled with HDL similarities to sequentialprogramming languages has led the authors to propose the idea of introducing LP into HDLeducation. Using LP to improve HDL education has not been widely investigated. One earlyattempt involved an approach very similar to Knuth’s WEB approach [18][19] using a Prologlogic program to generate a human-readable form and a Verilog HDL file. The main thrust ofthis effort was to capture the formal operational semantics of the description and animate thebehavior of parallelisms. The approach taken in [18] and [19] will clearly suffer from the failingsof Knuth’s efforts with regard to a maintainability, tool-chain integration, and user

, interconnectivity and integration [1]. SystemsThinking (ST) is considered an active framework to better manage complex system problemdomains. It focuses on how the constituent parts of a system pertain to the whole system and theway the systems work within larger systems over time. This holistic approach contrasts with thetraditional analysis whose aim is to study the individual pieces of a system separately. Bloom etal. [2] and Anderson et al. [3] established a taxonomy whose aim is to classify educationalobjectives in a hierarchy from less to more complex. Bloom’s taxonomy was revised later byAnderson and his colleagues to fit modern education objectives. Stave and Hopper [4] and Hopperand Stave [5] offered a system parallel to Bloom’s taxonomy of

work.BackgroundFor several years, the United States (U.S.) federal government and other national entities haveexpressed the significant need for an increase in the highly skilled STEM workforce. Non–profitorganizations and companies have addressed this call to action by developing co–curricular andextra–curricular opportunities for students. Many targeted early learning stages, with thedevelopment of outreach activities, after–school programs, and summer camps, in an effort toincrease the post-secondary pipeline with prospective low-income and underrepresentedstudents. Some of these efforts have generated positive outcomes, including the implementationof CS curriculum. Several focused on creating spaces for underrepresented student populations,in an effort

For engineering educators, this arose most often as an issue in the curriculum – thesiloing of engineering coursework from ethics or social responsibility explorations in science andtechnology studies classrooms. Participants identified the success of integration, such asproblem-based work that had students engage real-world problems with dire consequences, or (inlieu of such examples) shared aspirations to achieve integration of ethics and socialresponsibility into the

However, there were some significant negative changes in the opinions ofstudents about including diversity in an engineering curriculum or teaching diversity byuniversity professors. Also, students did not have the motivation to combat racial bias whereit existed in teams.Fila and Purzer [24] investigated whether gender diversity adds the number of creativesolutions in design team projects.
