in the student engagement policiesof higher education institutions [14].While other “[r]esearch suggests that higher education students who have a greater sense ofbelonging tend to have higher motivation, more academic self-confidence, higher levels ofacademic engagement and higher achievement” [7], a 2022 study by Pedler, Willis, andNieuwoudt investigated the relationship between university students’ sense of belonging andtheir motivation, retention, and enjoyment of their university experience. They found that“students who frequently considered leaving the university without completing their degree (i.e.,dropping out) had a significantly lower sense of belonging that students who did not” [7], while“university students with a higher sense

The analysis isperformed by aggregating multiple institutional and departmental data sets from Spring 2019 toSpring 2022. The student's performance is examined for the sequence of the first threeprogramming courses at the CST Department. It is analyzed along several dimensions, includingmajor, gender, ethnicity, etc., throughout the different phases of the COVID-19 pandemic. Thisproject investigates the performance of the students who take the CST courses as mandatorycourses for the three CST majors as well as the performance of the students (non-CST majors)who take the CST courses as a general education computing requirement.

of Engineering and Cyber Systems to theSchool of Leadership and Management.BackgroundIn May of 2022 the United States Coast Guard Academy (USCGA) graduated its first class ofCyber Systems majors. This major was introduced at the Coast Guard Academy (CGA) in orderto provide a larger number of technically-competent leaders of character to accomplish the needsof the Service in the midst of growing demands in the cyber domain. The Cyber Systems majorcomprises a strong academic foundation in secure technical computing balanced with amanagerial cyber emphasis. Program stakeholders repeatedly shared the importance ofunderstanding risk within the cyber context. As a result, it was determined by the faculty that theCyber Systems Major at CGA needed

this reason, an amphibious water sampling rover was created by a capstoneproject team. This capstone project team was formed with five undergraduate engineeringtechnology students. This project was started in the Spring semester of 2022 and concluded inthe Fall semester of 2022. This project generated a rover, and the rover can navigate both on landand on water. And it can perform the water sample collection task. The rover can be controlledover a remote PC, and it can collect water temperature data, and the data can be sent remotelyover the internet. For wireless communication, a sub-GHz LoRa module is used. The rover canalso communicate over WiFi. A GUI (Graphical user interface) program was developed tocollect data from the rover and to

2022, the CS department converted more remote-teaching courses back toin-classroom, in-person courses compared to the earlier term. In the fall of 2022, almost allcourses were converted to in-person, in-classroom courses except a few courses.While we continued to collect data from the spring of 2019 to the fall of 2021, we discoverednoticeable enrollment trends throughout the COVID-19 pandemic period. Based on the data wecollected, we observed that the COVID-19 pandemic crisis significantly affected femalestudents’ enrollment in early programming courses (CS1, CS2, and CS3). We suspect it could bebecause female students tend to spend more time doing household chores or taking care of theirsiblings than male students.Previous research found

This might inflate students’sense of their self-reported learning despite failing to demonstrate the knowledge, skills, andcompetencies associated with introductory CS coursework (Hui, 2023; Cloude et al, 2024).Students may, for example, build working code that does not demonstrate algorithmic thinkingskills by hard-coding solutions, using brute force programming techniques, or using otherrudimentary programming approaches. Moreover, self-reports and autograders are unlikely tocapture the more complex learning outcomes, such as computational thinking and algorithmicthinking, commonly associated with CS1 coursework (Hog & Jump, 2022; Cloud et al, 2024).The research at the center
