such as collaborationand reflection. At the end, students demonstrate knowledge and are judged by how much theyhave learnt and how well they communicate it. Throughout this process, the teacher’s role is toguide and advise rather than to direct and manage student work [7]. In project based learning, theprojects will have varying complexity but all will relate in some way to the fundamental theoriesand techniques of an engineer’s discipline specialization. Successful completion of projects inpractice requires the integration of all areas of an engineer’s undergraduate training. Project workis more directed to the application of knowledge, management of time and resources by thestudents as well as task and role differentiation is very important

But the drawback of large-scale surveys is the impossibility of gathering continualdata to reflect the evolving needs in addition to typical low response rates and problems obtainingrepresentative samples [1]. The current approaches may be good enough if we have sufficient time,staffing and solid faculty-librarian relationships. However, in reality, adoption of the current approachesmay be difficult for liaison librarians who serve a large number of faculty members and have many otherjob duties.As the University of Iowa College of Engineering has experienced significant growth in research, we twoengineering librarians see the necessity of

equipmentOne of the most pressing needs reflected in previous assessment activities was the lack ofcampus accommodations with adequate technological capabilities to support intensivecomputation and research activities. As a result, at GRIC, technological architecture plays a vitalrole in incorporating a robust Internet infrastructure with 100 dedicated ports for wired andwireless connection; over 100 electrical outlets distributed throughout the space on walls, floorsand portable towers; and a wide range of computers (HP, Dell, Microsoft, Lenovo, Apple) withvarious operating systems (Mac OS, Windows, Ubuntu), including software for complextechnical writing, programming, data processing and visualization, imaging and design, amongstothers.

Consequently, industry needs mechanical engineering graduates that have the necessaryknowledge, skills and abilities (KSAs) to successfully participate in the design and developmentof complex products or systems.The fact that companies need engineering graduates with a good foundation in the process todesign and develop products and systems is reflected in the new ABET accreditation criteria [1]and in references such as the Engineering Competency Model that was jointly developed byAmerican Association of Engineering Societies (AAES) and the United States Department ofLabor (DOL

We also asked questions aboutwhether students found S&E fair projects to be “transformative experiences”[11] which areexpected to reflect deeper engagement with science. We shortened the scales for time, selectingthe four most representative items from each scale. We also rephrased each question to ask aboutthe fair project.ResultsWe analyzed the demographic characteristics reported by these students and contrasted thosewho did and did not complete science fair projects. Overall, teachers with younger students(especially 6th grade) seemed more likely to require all students to complete a project, whileteachers with older students (especially 12th grade

Only oneparticipant stuck to the planned story from start to finish, with two others keeping elements ofthe same story, but most animating some other aspect entirely.

Cultivating several functioning weak ties assumes unwritten network requirementsthat are problematic due to their gender-neutral structure, an informal unwritten practice ofnetworks. With men usually in the highest positions of power (seen also in engineering fieldstoday), network structures are related to gender composition of the network and leadership withinthe network; therefore, making women tokenized members (Kanter, 1977).

of metacognition is critical to learning, especially in engineeringwhere the focus is on problem solving and the learning of inherently difficult conceptual material[6, 23].Epistemic metacognitionThroughout the study of epistemic cognition many researchers have included aspects ofmetacognition [2, 24, 25]. Recent work by Barzilai and Zohar [2, 9] conceptualize epistemicthinking as the combination of epistemic cognition and epistemic metacognition, reflecting thestructure of non-epistemic thinking. Within the epistemic thinking framework, epistemiccognition is conceptualized using situation and context-specific models and epistemicmetacognition includes the dimensions from metacognition reframed to be specific to epistemicmatters.

The secondobjective is to apply the same information-based approaches to modeling and inference to furtherassess the plausibility of a range of causal models possibly confirming the model identified inStage 1 (Fig. 1), or refining it to reflect new information gained.

received much attention in recent yearsdue to its lack of diversity and the toxic culture in these companies. The United States populationis 13% Black, but this representation is not reflected in the technology workforce. In fact, fewerthan 5% of tech company employees identify as Black. These factors lead many Blackemployees to leave, costing companies billions of dollars to fill their positions–not to mentiontheir perspectives and expertise. The lack of diversity can also affect worker wellbeing,productivity, and innovation. To interrogate this issue, our study examines the experiences ofBlack engineers through their own narratives. We aim to interview 40 engineers within thetechnology industry to understand their working conditions. The

bemisunderstood and ignored. It is crucial for engineers to be able to communicate their ideas toprofessionals outside of the technical realm such as humanitarians, politicians, and financialadvisers. The humanitarian education of engineering students is useless without the ability tocommunicate their globally conscious ideas and environmental concerns. To combat this, oral andwritten communication skills are incorporated into the curriculum using technical reports, oral-presentations, and reflective essays. After each experiment, it is suggested that a written report iscompleted as well as periodic reflective essays that ensure students are making a connectionbetween the technical experiments and their humanitarian aspects.3.4 Curriculum

application of LIWC is whether the pre-defineddictionaries that LIWC draws on are appropriate for the texts that are being analyzed. The essaysthat students compose in specific courses, for instance, may more strongly reflect concepts (assignaled by the words they use) in that course, and those concepts may not have been adequatelyanticipated in the development of LIWC.An emerging supervised method for text analysis uses naïve Bayesian computations. The methodis based on an extension of Bayes theorem and is used to create classifiers that identify predictorsthat are able to classify old and new instances. For instance, after training on a set of newspapereditorials written from reactionary and liberal perspectives, a Bayesian classifier can be used

working on the homework exercises.  Promote lifelong learning – One part of the first Basic PLC laboratory exercise – construct the logic to make two lamps to alternately flash at a given period – requires the student groups to think. No solution is given to them and it is not covered in the prior course lectures, though the lab teaching assistant will help them to figure out the solution. In addition, at the end of each laboratory exercise, the students ask a series of reflection questions to help them evaluate their performance and what they could do better.All of these courses were initiated in response to industry demand. In the 1980’s, AT&Tsponsored a project to develop manufacturing-related courses
