sets have become more pervasivein educational research. In this paper, we present a systematic review of 302 papers published inJEE from 2012 to 2022. Specifically, we examined which quantitative methods are used in JEEto develop a picture of the state of quantitative methods in engineering education. The resultsfound that while a large number of studies used basic statistical testing, there is a trend of moreadvanced quantitative methods being used over the years.Introduction Recent decades have witnessed a continued rapid advancement in engineering educationresearch. There has been growth in the number of engineering education departments, degreeprograms, and research centers, as well as a rise in engineering education-focused

The invitation toparticipate was only extended to specific classes that used OEMPs in various formats (as in-classassignments, projects, homework assignments, etc.).3.1 SurveyStudents were invited to take a survey about OEMPs either via QR code displayed during classor a link sent out through their learning management system. The survey was distributed viaQualtrics and included a number of questions about students’ experiences with OEMPs. In thiswork we are focused on a single question designed to measure students’ affective pathways; thequestion as presented in Spring 2022 is shown in Figure 1.

began a directed content analysis (DCA) on publicly availableTikTok content about being neurodivergent (n = 100 TikToks). We used a priori codesdeveloped in a previous study during summer of 2022, which included a thematic analysis ofsimilar TikToks about neurodivergence (n = 200 TikToks). We present our preliminary results of20 TikToks to demonstrate the transferability of the previously developed codebook. Our currentresults indicate that the codebook is transferable with one code emerging from the analysis.Keywords: Neurodiversity, Transferability, Qualitative Research, and Social Media Analysis1.

This work seeks to investigate undergraduate students’ perceptions andawareness of macroethical issues in aerospace engineering from a purely qualitative lens using agrounded theory methodological framework. Qualitative data from the survey explored students’perspectives of what it means to be an ethical engineer, unethical practices in engineering, and otherrelated questions and were inductively analyzed to identify common themes. Preliminary findings fromthe data analysis–the initial coding phase of a longer constructivist grounded theory analysis–identifiedthat students

Current Study This study examines the impact of COVID-19 on sophomore to junior and junior tosenior year engineering students’ persistence. We examined persistence across gender, financialneed, race/ethnicity, and first-generation status. This quantitative study aims to examineengineering students’ persistence rates before the COVID-19 pandemic and during the COVID-19 pandemic over three semesters. The paper extends the authors’ previous study on the firstyear to second-year engineering student persistence prior to and during COVID-19 Interruptions(Authors, 2022). The following research questions will be addressed in this paper: 1. How does the percentage of students not returning to engineering compare prior to and during COVID

The SRM is a general conceptual and methodologicalframework to depict voluntary or involuntary interpersonal relationships and interactionsbetween two or more individuals within groups (Lüdtke et al., 2013; Nestler et al., 2022). It iscommonly used in education and psychology contexts to examine interpersonal behaviors acrossgroup members (e.g., Kwan et al., 2008), and it has broad applicability in engineering educationresearch given the growing emphasis on team learning and collaborative project-based learningin the field (e.g., Loughry et al., 2014).

The current workforce requires interdisciplinary knowledge and professional skills(Tan, 2021). Hence, the everyday teaching and learning methods may need to be revised toensure that students are sufficiently equipped with the skills required in the workforce(Venkatesh et al., 2022).

Therefore, we sought to test the fit of this existing rubric in the first-year engineering context.III. Methods A.

Inthe years 2017-2020, the training was integrated into class time where the students watchedvideos on spatial thinking, with the instructor going over examples of each topic afterwards. In2021, the students were asked to watch the videos beforehand and class time was reserved for theinstructor to go over examples and for students to ask questions. In 2022, no class time wasreserved for the spatial skills instruction. Students were told to watch the videos outside of classand ask the instructor any questions they may have during office hours. In this year, studentswere also assessed through mastery-based grading. Students were given an assignment andreceived feedback. They were then allowed to
