10-weeksummer program where students are paired with faculty to engage in a research or design project.The student is paid a weekly stipend of $400 while being mentored one-to-one by a full-timefaculty member. Approximately 29 students took part in this program during the summer of 2019,culminating in a presentation to their peers and faculty mentors, and members of the Dean’sAdvisory Board for the school.It is hypothesized that the process and completion of the research or design project through theprogram positively impacted the students’ confidence and self-efficacy. To determine if thehypothesis is true, the students were assessed through a simple survey, the results of which arepresented. In addition, two of the 29 students were asked

both qualitative and quantitative data. For example, the reportof one participating group identified electricity market prices, hydropower generation potential,impacts on local ecosystems, and stakeholder acceptance as potential forms of data. Processingand understanding these heterogeneous datasets is best facilitated through methods from data-science, including emerging techniques such as artificial intelligence. Upon identifying thechallenges related to data analysis, the group specifically designated the position of a ‘data-science researcher’ in their team. This is a common approach to address complexitiesencountered during the project experience, i.e., students seek domain knowledge throughcollaborative learning and peer education

and the sender are key components to consider when addressing conflictand challenging behaviours. Using an assertive communication approach when dealing withdifficult behaviours can ensure that the message, the receiver and the sender are addressed in aconstructive dialogue. For example, Hess utilized the D.E.S.C. model to develop leadership skillsthrough active student practice [13]. This model encourages the sender of a message to begin bydescribing the behaviour using facts and details while remaining calm and supportive in tone andbody language. Next, the sender expresses the impact the behaviour has had on the team or on anindividual using “I” statements and by encouraging acknowledgement and/or clarification fromthe receiver. Then, the

enrollment in many majors.NEET is based on the following four principles: 1. Our education should focus on preparing our students to develop the new machines and systems that they will build in the middle of the 21st century. 2. We should help our students prepare themselves to be makers, discoverers or positioned along this spectrum, and we should teach engineering fundamentals as a foundation for careers in both research and practice. 3. We should build our education around the way our students learn best, engaging them in their learning, and implementing pilots to understand the desirable balance of classroom, project, and digital education for the digital natives. 4.

were targeted in this study; applying and creating. Forapplying, 3D models were made available that could be viewed on a smartphone using an ARapplication or on a computer. The models were generated for problems that students in previousyears found challenging or expressed difficulty in visualizing. Students were then encouraged touse this model to inform their problem solving. For creating, students were given the opportunityto generate 3D models based on textbook examples, indicate types of stresses and displaydeformed shapes. For both activities, student perceptions, best practices, and lessons learned arenoted. Students were also asked to provide feedback about their experience and the effectivenessof AR models in their learning in class
