[15] to conduct thisliterature review.Literature searchWith the growing surge of AI and open-access publications, searching even with well-definedcriteria is difficult. Thus, we decided to focus on research publications collected on one of themost widely used and accessible web-based databases for this study. The literature search wasconducted in December 2022 by using Education Resources Information Center (ERIC). Thedecision to use ERIC was because ERIC is good for locating a broad array of literature related toall aspects of education and across educational levels.Multiple rounds of searches were conducted on the source database using different

similar notionsdifferently [3]. For example, a businessperson’s notion of risk, driven by the bottom line, differsgreatly from an engineer’s, for whom safety is paramount [4]. Engineering thinking, stressingproblem solving, is more akin to the strategies of ethics. Indeed, as ethicist Michael Davis hasnoted, ethical thinking is integral to engineering: “Knowing engineering ethics is as much a partof knowing how to engineer as knowing how to calculate stress or design a circuit . . . insofar asengineering is a profession, knowing how to calculate stress or design a circuit is in part knowingwhat the profession allows, forbids, or requires” [5].

Over the first coupleyears, workshop topics were selected by an informal committee including the ScholarlyCommunications Librarian and one or two outside collaborators. In fall 2021, the library begansoliciting suggestions for future topics from attendees in the workshop registration form. Inspring 2022, we joined GradCO to share virtual workshops. As a result, we started curating asmall selection of our workshop offerings to specific NACE Career Readiness frames. Eventhough this development increased the offerings available to our students, for the purposes ofanalysis, our study only considers workshops led by our university. In fall 2022, the
flipped classrooms highlydepends on student participation in pre-class learning activities. The students who do not fullycomplete the pre-class activities are usually lost and left out during in-class activities, which canconsequently result in loss of interest or even failing the course due to adverse cascade effects ofunpreparedness. This paper discusses the impact of course modalities on student participationrates in pre-class and in-class activities and its correlation with student performance. Anundergraduate fluid mechanics course was delivered in an in-person and online flippedclassroom format during 2021 and 2022 as the campus went through the phased re-opening. Thestudent participation in the pre-class activities was measured through

Studentinvolvement has been strongly linked to student motivation, engagement, satisfaction, andlearning. Drawing from Astin’s Student Involvement theory, this mixed methods study measuresthe effects of choice of activities on student experience and learning via control and interventiongroups. This study leverages mandatory teaching assistant training to conduct this researchwhere the Fall 2022 offering is the control group, and the Winter 2023 offering is theintervention group in which graduate students are offered choices in their activities.

To test this, we added lectures, assignments, and active-learningmodules into required seminar courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels that explicitlydealt with gender inequalities and implicit bias in engineering. We hypothesized that theacknowledgement and open discussion of these issues for women would enhance their sense ofbelonging within biomedical engineering and increase their intention to persist in engineering.Additionally, we investigated whether a resource intensive small-group discussion enhanced theimpact of the educational modules.Methods In the fall semesters of 2021 and 2022, an anonymous survey was
