different types of engineering courses. Rather than evolving fromlearning theory or research, current grading practices have primarily arisen from canonicalpractices created three centuries ago, originally created to rank students against each other. Suchranking or competition derived practices are out of alignment with modern outcomes-basedengineering assessment practices. Specifications grading, an alternative, is a framework forassessment grounded in learning theory as well as student agency. The cornerstone ofspecifications grading is treating each assignment as a pass/fail marker of mastery using clearlydefined and transparent criteria. With limited examples in engineering, this paper provides aclear introduction to specifications grading for

Graduate online engineering programs havebecome more and more plentiful as compared to undergraduate programs owing to the suitabilityof the target audience in terms of accessibility and flexibility, and maturity. The online student istypically a lifelong learner, more concerned with commuting and non-academic responsibilities,and motivated to complete assignments individually.1 Moreover, graduate courses are morecontent and design centered with less needs for laboratory

This Work-in-Progress paper willoutline the development and implementation of a Culture of Inclusion (COI) survey instrument thatwas designed to evaluate the inclusivity of ERCs and other large multi-institutional organizationsthat are education focused.The COI survey differs from a wealth of other inclusion-related surveys because of this focus, aswell as its reliance on social psychological constructs

Developing intuition is not only a majoreducational advance in creating stronger problem-solvers and critical thinkers, but also narrowsthe opportunity gaps that persist in engineering. Furthermore, by creating effective interventions,we will give useful tools to engineering educators that can help promote intuition development.As we prepare students to become practicing engineers, we must also equip them with both theconcrete and abstract technical skills necessary for not only personal success but also positivesocietal impact.

modeling framework, does not account for the interaction between components asit aims to individually immune components susceptible to known threats. As a result, it fails toaccount for threats that may materialize when components of a system are connected with eachother [21]. Furthermore, prior research in systems engineering shows that decomposing a systeminto components and analyzing each component separately (as done in STRIDE and other threatmodeling frameworks) limits the solution designers’ ability to understand how the overall systembehaves [31], [32]. Hence, along with component-level analysis, threat modeling frameworksneed to incorporate system-level threat analysis as well. Currently, to the best of our knowledge,none of the approaches

Practicing engineering learning in this way prepares a student to integratewith real-world teams and work to solve complex, multi-faceted problems upon graduation. However, the incorporation of digital technology in the classroom is not enough to keepcollege education relevant in the long-term to digital natives and the increasingly-digital society.Nor is collaborative problem solving a triple win for the digital native student, the school
