The development of self-efficacy, for example, is a common goaland is often measured as a psychological construct. Less commonly measured constructs that arenonetheless commonly valued by educators are the development of creativity, perseverance(grit), and self-concept.Self-concept is particularly interesting in

Peer review also resulted in theperceived improvement of students’ ability to critique. Additionally, the use of co-created rubricsis an inclusive teaching practice that can improve confidence and self-efficacy. It speeds up futuredetailed feedback, as the students and instructors have a similar understanding about the elementsof the rubric and may enhance self-regulated learning [2].

Prior research has shown that these internship opportunities can increase students’sense of self-efficacy in STEM fields, give students insight into career paths they might nototherwise be exposed to, and increase students’ interest in and pursuit of STEM-related majorsand careers.The home environment can also provide opportunity for students to increase and strengthenSTEM identity and the consideration of STEM careers.

community.In this context, collaborative learning pedagogies represent an opportunity to increase students’motivation and support students’ development of effective learning strategies. In content-heavybiomedical engineering courses, high-stakes assessments such as tests or exams often elicitanxiety, low expectancy to succeed, and low self-efficacy for students, corresponding todecreased motivation. Collaborative testing has been demonstrated to improve students’performance [8]–[10], leading to the hypothesis that collaborative testing also improves students’perceptions of their learning environment based on development of effective learning strategies.Collaborative testing has been reported to improve retention and recall (e.g., [7]–[10

Further, the students viewed the reflective practice favorably.To increase student engagement with the SBG system, we implemented a co-creation processwith the rubric [15]. The use of co-created rubrics is an inclusive teaching practice that canimprove confidence and self-efficacy [5].

We quantitatively assessed aspects of empathy in (n =20) students’ stories submitted around four specific prompts using the External Evaluation ofEmpathy Rubric (EEER). The empathy observed in these stories was then compared to thestudents’ self-reported empathy, as measured using the Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI). Ourfindings illustrate that encouraging students to think about their future and their goals often yieldsthe highest scores for emotional, cognitive, and action-oriented components of empathy.Prompting students to describe confronting or responding to a
