One particular exampleof this is the Affinity Research Group model [14], which sees engineering learning as an iterativeand social process in which students achieve learning outcomes through their own experiences asmembers of a community brought together by a shared goal. In an Affinity Research Group,students continuously engage in experiential learning groups as they move forward in their careerpathways. This allows them to not only learn from their peers, faculty, and mentors, but also helpand mentor others in turn. This model of learning is particularly relevant in the case of Hispanicand first-generation students, who posses cultural work

Vygotsky’s Zone of ProximalDevelopment (ZPD). The range between the ability level of a person achieved by individualefforts versus under adult guidance or in collaboration with more capable peers denotes ZPD [1].With scaffolding, the materials that the learner has to absorb are broken down into smallercomponents so that the

), a weighted system familiar to many in higher education. The two primaryvariants are the `straight’ scale (i.e. A, B, C, D, F) and the somewhat more granular `plus/minus’scale (i.e. A+, A, A-, B+, etc.), both used widely. Despite research on cumulative GPAs, gradeinflation, and academic performance, there is a dearth of research correlating grading systemsdirectly to students’ passion, interest, or motivation toward their coursework.In this work, we consider another GPA system using a continuous scale in which students’numerical course grade (0-100%) would map directly to their course GPA (0-4). The approachallows the GPA to provide infinite grade differentiation among peers. No prior literature hasconsidered student attitudes about such a

Moreover, have students examine their design solutions vis-à-vis criteria and constraints, assess design trade-offs, and perform design refinement. 7.

This course would be one of thefirst mechanical engineering courses required by the university that is not considered part ofthe general education curriculum. The purpose of this study is to track the effects of HIPs withcarefully planned pedagogies that would provide numerous benefits for the students, such asoverall increased learning gains and graduation rates. There are seven HIPs characteristicsused to measure the results at the end of the semester: these are (1) interaction with faculty, (2)interaction with peers, (3) feedback from instructor, (4) quality time spent on the course

Ge’s research [9] has shown that when working with peers, students mustimplement four interaction processes to effectively solve an ill-structured task: representing theproblem (through exploration), planning and proposing solutions, attempting to solve (iteratingplans and making justifications), and monitoring and evaluation (evaluating the solution andconsidering alternatives).

Since the March for Our Lives protest, there has thus been arenewed effort to strengthen gun control laws, and in 2018, lawmakers around the countrysubsequently enacted fifty new laws restricting access to guns [3]. As of this writing, ten states have enacted legislation permitting the concealed carrying ofhandguns on university campuses. In sixteen states, concealed carrying of handguns onuniversity campuses have been banned, and in twenty-three states, the decision to allowhandguns on campus has been left up to the university’s discretion [4].
