Althoughthe current results indicate a need for much revision, the authors are encouraged tocontinue developing a set of lesson plans and assessment tools that can be implementedin ME writing-intensive courses. They hope this project will empower non-Compositioninstructors teaching writing intensive courses by giving them specific teaching tools,which these instructors can add to their repertoire.References 1.

In reality, plagiarism is likely to be a persisting problem incomputer programming courses. Given what we know about plagiarism in general, we will nowdescribe how it has affected the programming course at the center of this paper.Course Description The course described in this paper is a large (400-700 student), first-year programmingcourse at a large, land-grant university in the Mid-Atlantic United States. The programmingcourse teaches the MATLAB programming language, and focuses on the fundamentals ofcomputer programming for student learning objectives. The

Onestudent from each lab group was physically present in lab while the others were tuning in live butremotely. The students watching the lab virtually were reported to be disengaged and notparticipating in the activity. Although this allowed students to experience physicalexperimentation in turns, it did not seem to promote complete engagement. Other researchersfound that the shift to virtual labs caused students to question the quality of their education [17].Several authors also attempted to use kits that were mailed to the students

The study will thenresearch the ways in which a subset of the workshop teachers teaches engineering in theirclassrooms, using the workshop as a basis of comparison. We plan to use the knowledge we gainthrough this research to make recommendations for teacher educators about the needs of theseteachers and how to best support their use of engineering design projects in their classes. Originally planned as a two-day in-person workshop, the resulting workshop was a four-part series of half-day, synchronous meetings with eight rural teachers from three schools in ruralareas in the Mid-Atlantic region

into Why Well-Supported StudentsLeave a First-Year Engineering ProgramAbstractThis complete research paper examines retaining traditionally underrepresented groups (URGs) inSTEM fields. For the purposes of this paper underrepresented groups include women, first-generation students, and underrepresented minorities (URMs). The retention of URM students inSTEM fields is a current area of focus for engineering education research. Following a literaturereview and examination of best practices in retaining the targeted group, a cohort-based,professional development program with a summer bridge component was developed at a large landgrant institution in the Mid-Atlantic region with a programmatic goal to increase retention ofunderrepresented students

The interviews were conducted between Fall 2016 and Fall 2017. Thus, the changes tothe ABET criteria were under consideration during this period and were approved in October2017. The revised criteria went into effect during the 2019-2020 cycle. The broad aim of theinterviews was to understand the participants’ practices and perspectives related to ethics,including the influences that shaped their teaching. Examples of interview questions
