Ungrading approaches shift thefocus from grades to learning and metacognitive strategies.Ungrading can take many forms depending on the disciplinary subject, course structure, andinstitutional context. Some common approaches include contract grading where students commitup front to do certain assignments for a specific grade, negotiated grading where students andinstructors conference to decide on a final grade, and all feedback but no grades (Kohn & Blum2020).

In 2021, sixty-four percent of allengineers who completed the National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying(NCEES) Principles and Practice Exam (PE) took one of the five civil engineering exams ratherthan an exam in the eighteen other engineering disciplines [3]. Still, not all civil engineers aspireto obtain a PE license.Knowledge of engineering licensure laws and rules is important to civil engineering programs,faculty, and students.

Also, we hypothesized that engagement would be more critical forwomen than men for persisting in the Engineering program. 5DesignParticipants
collective response to those scholarly and industrial calls for performanceskills will be slower.To be fair, a number of scholars in varied fields have provided important contributions to theliterature. Borrego, Karlin, McNair, & Beddoes (2013) reviewed the literature from industrialand organizational psychology for relevance to engineering education [5]. Wolfinbarger (2022)stressed the importance of teaching team leadership to engineers, echoing the aforementionedcalls [6]. However, in many of these cases, the parallels that are drawn between essential skillsof an engineer and the topics in the classroom, do not always translate across the differentlearning environments present in a classroom versus industrial settings.This gap has also raised

Ultimately, the decisionto make the switch was motivated primarily due to the open-source nature of Python that wouldmake it more accessible to students as they entered the engineering profession while havingsimilar advanced functionalities of MATLAB.
